The Cessna TTx, a single engine, four place, piston aircraft, was purchased in July of 2013. The company realized a small profit from the transaction.
Rick's also reported that it has listed for sale its 2010 Cessna Citation Mustang. Recent market research indicates a tight supply of late model Mustangs, and the company expects the aircraft to sell in the near future.

PRESIDENT, Rick’s Cabaret
Cessna Corvalis 400
“Flying lessons were my ‘surviving Katrina’ self-reward and served to give me something to look forward to during the painful recovery. Now, five years and 750 hours of flying time later, my plane is the fastest fixed gear single, and this amazing machine takes me all over the country on business at speeds up to 250 miles per hour. I love everything about flying; the pure excitement of wheels up and the visceral thrill of a successful instrument approach can’t be beat. Private aviation is one of the great American freedoms that I count myself fortunate to be able to enjoy.”

Sabrina Hart, et al. v. Rick’s Cabaret International, Inc., RCI Entertainment (New York) Inc. and Peregrine Enterprises, Inc. Staff: Heather O'Neil, Wade Underwood
Attorneys:
E. Michelle Drake, Anna P. Prakash, Steven Andrew Smith
This is a
collective and class action lawsuit under the federal Fair Labor
Standards Act and New York Labor law. This lawsuit was brought in 2009
on behalf of entertainers who worked at Rick’s Cabaret. The lawsuit
alleges, among other things, that: (1) Defendants misclassified
entertainers as independent contractors when, in reality, the
entertainers are employees; (2) Defendants violated state and federal
law by requiring entertainers to pay “house fees” and fines in order to
work; and (3) Defendants violated state and federal law by failing to
pay entertainers the minimum wage and that amounts entertainers received
from customers were tips, not wages, and could not be used to satisfy
the Defendants’ minimum wage obligations.
In 2013, the Court ruled that Rick’s
Cabaret in New York misclassified its entertainers as independent
contractors and that, as a matter of law, the entertainers are employees
under the Fair Labor Standards Act and New York Labor Law. The Court
ruled that Rick’s NY’s statutory duty to pay the minimum wage was not
satisfied by the money that entertainers received from customers.
The current Complaint in this case is available here.
