JETNET’s Overall Pre-Owned
Jet, Turboprop & Helicopter
Markets ReportAcross all market sectors, JETNET reports 8,476
full retail sale transactions for 2014, an increase
of 176 (or 1.8%) over the 8,327 reported for 2013.The fleet “For Sale” percentages for all market
sectors were mostly unchanged in the December
comparisons, although business jets were down
at 11% (1.5 pts from 12.5% in 2013). BusinessMARKET REPORT-2
WINGX - BizAv Activity - EuropeThere were just 49,929 Business Aviation flights
in January, according to WingX. That’s a -5.8%
decline YOY, taking last year’s tepid recovery in
Europe well off-course. January 2015 activity
was at a similar level to that of January 2009.
Flight activity fell -4% in Western Europe, and as
much as -10% in Germany. France, Europe’s
busiest market fell -2%, and Italy -3% YOY. Activity in
Switzerland dropped -6%. Central and Eastern
Europe were also well down this month: Poland
was down -6%; Austria - 17%, Ukraine -59% and
Russia -23% YOY.
There were some geographic bright spots however:
AOC flights out of the UK increased 10% and out of
Belgium 9%, while overall activity out of Greece
increased 11%. Flights out of Czech Republic were
up 6%, of which private flights were up 38% YOY.
Overall, business jet activity (-7%) was
impacted more than turboprops (-1%). Only Turkey
showed meaningful gains in jet activity for January.
Chartered jet activity fell -9% in Europe and is now
more than -15% below its level in 2008.
The only business jet segment increasing flights this
month was the Ultra-Long-Range segment (7.5% of
total volume), with YOY growth of 4%, some way
below its annual trend of 11%. ULR jet charter
volume was strong, up 9% YOY in January.!More information visit - http://www.wingx-advance.comturboprops for sale were at 7.7% (no change
from 2013); turbine helicopters for sale were at
6.4% (no change from 2013); and piston
helicopters for sale were at 6.1% (up 0.1 pt. from
6.0%). Full Sale Transactions had mixed results.
Business jets were up (8.1%); business turbo-
props were down (-11.6%); both turbine (-0.2%)
and piston (-7.3%) helicopters were down, as
were all the commercial airliners.
Average Days on Market are all at very high
levels. All market sectors decreased in Average
Days on Market YTD, however, through
December except for piston helicopters and
commercial airliners, which took 41 or more
days. Average Asking Prices, meanwhile, had
mixed results. Business jets (-10.4%), business
turboprops (-1.7%), and piston helicopters
(-1.8%) all decreased. Turbine helicopters
increased (+0.7%).The year-end 2014 For Sale inventory level is
2,202, or 11% for sale. This inventory level is still
above the 2,000 mark, but is at the lowest level
since 2008, and nearly at the percentage level of
10.8% recorded in 2007.!More information visit - http://www.jetnet.comOWNERSHIP
Owning and
Running a King AirWe all want to predict the market.....let’s face it,
if we could do that, we would be flying around in
Gulfstreams of our own. But we can’t, so we
need to look for clues. In general the aviation
market follows other trends but lags behind.When the world’s finances fell apart everyone
tried to be more “prudent” and this led to a big
downturn in corporate aviation. Conspicuous
consumption was out, bling was dialled down
and the company jet was, often, sold off.
As things improved people began to look at
different ways of spending their money; Sony
was credited with the catchphrase “functional
luxury” to describe a brand that delivers quality
and reliability. Tech is important and today’s
luxuries must be useful as well. Time magazine
posed the question, “The hottest new luxury
item? One that saves you time, money or both”.On that note, may I introduce you to the Beech
KingAir 200? “Who needs an introduction?”,
I can hear you say, “Kingairs have been around
forever”. But that very fact highlights the qualityand reliability of the brand and gives newcomers
a sense of security. Beech has always been a
premium brand in the lighter end of the aviation
market and that still holds good in 2015.At Aerodynamics, we are seeing a high volume
of sales enquiries from first time turboprop
buyers and we think it’s down to the search for
functional luxury. These buyers are not impulse
purchasers; they want something that fulfils their
needs, is going to look good, but not flashy, and
gives them maximum usability and versatility for
their money. We can demonstrate that the costs
of buying, and running, a Kingair offer significant
savings against a jet. With new requirements
coming from EASA for all private jet operators
the advantages of the Kingair can only multiply
in the next few years.As long time operators of Kingairs, the staff at
Aerodynamics are well placed to offer advice on
the practical aspects of ownership and use;
things that may not be obvious from the
technical specs. “Can I have a meeting/
entertain clients in flight?” “ Is there ample
baggage room?” “Is the cabin quiet enough that
I can rest at the end of a long day?” “ My day is
always rushed, are there sufficient facilities to
provide inflight catering?”The styles of trim and levels of equipment avail-
able in the Kingair range make it accessible to a
wide range of buyers and recently we are seeing
that a quality aircraft, well presented and with
good maintenance history is definitely moving.!More information visit – http://www.adl.aero
