It seems people are missing 2 key points:
1: Used aircraft will also be system generated at random. This means that the game will just make them appear out of nothing and there is no need for players to put them on the market.
2: The system with the delayed deliveries should not delay you all that much, as I said buy when you have 40-50% of the funds and earn the rest while you wait
I do think that the exact amount of time it will take will need to be balanced in play testing. You need to run through scenarios where after a year airlines might be placing 100 plane order to refresh their fleet. So yeah it will need tweaking and I do believe a hard cap on the maximum delay (gameplay vs realism). The system does not need to be a yes or no it needs to be tweaked until it feels right and still fun.
