Acquisitions & Ownership

Acquisitions

Considered guidance through the purchase and ownership of an aircraft — from defining the brief to the handover of the keys, and everything that follows.

Ownership

Acquiring an aircraft is a significant undertaking, and the right counsel makes the difference between a sound investment and a costly one. JETPAX guides clients through the entire process — from defining what to buy, to sourcing and inspecting it, to negotiating and closing the transaction.

Our involvement need not end at the handover. We can stand up and oversee the ownership around the aircraft — operation, management, crewing and care — so the experience of owning is as considered as the decision to buy.

Acquisition advisory

We bring objectivity and market knowledge to every stage of the purchase:

  • Needs analysis — defining mission, range, cabin and budget
  • Market sourcing of suitable aircraft worldwide, on and off market
  • Valuation, specification review and records audit
  • Pre-purchase inspection management and technical oversight
  • Negotiation, structuring and closing support

Ownership and operations

Once the aircraft is yours, we can arrange and oversee everything required to keep it flying and protected — AOC placement and ACMI where relevant, management and crewing, hangarage, maintenance oversight, insurance and the regulatory administration of ownership.

Why JETPAX

We are independent and aligned to you, not to a sale. As active charter brokers we live in the market every day, which keeps our advice current, candid and grounded in what aircraft actually cost to buy, run and one day sell.

The acquisition process

We search the global market, on and off market, and present a vetted shortlist.

04

Close & operate

We support negotiation and closing, then stand up the management and care around the aircraft.

Good to know

Frequently asked

Do you represent buyers or sellers?

We act for our client's interest. Most often that is the buyer, where our independence and market knowledge protect the purchase; we can also advise on a sale or upgrade.

Can you manage the aircraft after purchase?

Yes. We can arrange and oversee management, crewing, hangarage, maintenance and the regulatory administration of ownership, or work alongside your existing team.

What does it cost?

Acquisition and management engagements are scoped to the aircraft and the mandate. We'll set out a clear, considered proposal after an initial consultation.
