We focus on the intent of these transactions: we are not just selling an aircraft; we are disposing of an asset that can incur operational, legal and tax consequences. We function as a buyer’s agent, helping to select the correct aircraft for the buyer’s mission and preferences. We search the world for available units that will satisfy these requirements. We then analyze each in terms of its mechanical conditions and status, cosmetic condition and level of current technology. Based upon these, we establish the correct market price to pay for each offering. We serve as a confidential point of contact to effectively coordinate all the necessary details required to successfully assume ownership, from legal requirements, to tax issues, to aircraft management and operational details. Our philosophy is that we are not merely assisting in the acquisition of a piece of machinery, but we are helping the client build a safe, dependable, reliable transportation system for their business and personal use.
From time to time, we encounter aircraft that appear to be mispriced for their respective markets. We have the capability to purchase, hold, refurbish, and resell aircraft with our own funds and within a variety of entities throughout the world to capitalize on geographic market differences. Having owned and operated a variety of aircraft throughout our history, we have a much more intimate understanding of what the true costs of operating an aircraft can be, and most importantly, what the true costs of holding an aircraft can be during a sale and negotiation. It allows us to better serve you when it comes to the give and take of negotiations as we can focus on true costs and cash flows as opposed to just the contract price.
We frequently act on behalf of lending institutions. We serve as an aircraft evaluator, providing third party asset evaluations and collateral inspections on behalf of lending institutions and for private clients requiring help for tax value purposes. In addition, we use our experience in owning and operating aircraft to serve as a repossession agent, recovering delinquent assets for institutions and managing the asset until sale.
Whether buying, selling, or managing an asset, Business Air International brings a wealth of experience and a vast array of knowledge through a variety of aviation areas to help you succeed in accomplishing your mission and your needs. With years of experience, well over one hundred transactions, and millions of international miles travelled, we look forward to serving as your Global Private Jet Dealer. |
