FAQ
Frequently asked questions.
When does it make sense to buy a private jet rather than charter one?
Ownership is generally worth considering once your flying reaches several hundred hours a year, or when you need an aircraft configured for a specific mission profile. Below that threshold, charter or a jet card programme is often more cost-efficient. We can help you compare the options against your actual flight pattern.
What does the acquisition process involve?
The process begins with defining your requirements and budget, followed by market research, technical inspection, negotiation, contract preparation, and closing. Our team manages each stage and remains your single point of contact throughout.
What is a pre-buy inspection, and is it necessary?
A pre-buy inspection is a technical inspection carried out before purchase, particularly recommended for pre-owned aircraft, to certify the maintenance status of the aircraft and identify any issues in advance. We coordinate this as part of every acquisition.
Can you help sell an aircraft as well as buy one?
Yes. Our service covers both sides of the aircraft sales and acquisition transaction, from customer profiling and market strategy for sellers to requirement analysis and sourcing for buyers.
What types of aircraft can you help me acquire?
We work across all aircraft categories, from light jets such as the Cessna Citation, Citation Mustang, and Citation Excel, to midsize and super-midsize aircraft such as the Learjet 45XR, Gulfstream G200, and Challenger 604, to long-range aircraft such as the Dassault Falcon 7X, Falcon 2000LX, Bombardier Global Express (including the XRS), Challenger 650, Gulfstream G550, and Embraer Legacy.
How much does it cost to own and operate a private jet?
Ongoing costs depend on the aircraft category, usage, crew, maintenance, and hangarage, and vary significantly between a light jet and a long-range aircraft. We provide a personalised budget assessment based on your specific requirements.
Do you only handle new aircraft, or pre-owned as well?
Both. We support acquisitions of new and pre-owned aircraft, and can advise on the trade-offs between the two, including lead times and configuration flexibility.
What happens after the aircraft is delivered?
Our support does not end at delivery. We can assist with interior refurbishment, ongoing management, and, if relevant, structuring charter availability to help offset fixed costs.
Do I need to register the aircraft in a specific country?
Registration depends on your tax position, intended use, and regulatory considerations. We assess the most suitable jurisdiction as part of the acquisition process.
