Editor’s

Welcome

Necessary and Welcome usiness, like aviation, favors those who acquire knowledge. One of the more efficient and stimulating forums for gathering information and relevant intelligence for brokers and dealers as well as for financiers focusing on the resale market is the JETNET iQ Summit, held annually just before the NBAA’s Regional event for the northeast.

Professionals tracking new aircraft sales also find the Summit very informative. Such interest by all segments of the Business Aviation community is understandable. There’s only one market for business aircraft—new or pre-owned—and that is the market for efficient and effective transportation.

Whether considering new or pre-owned, the need for relevant information that supports knowledge is vital for success.

Rollie Vincent, co-founder of the Summit, oversees the event and presents findings from his ongoing surveys of the global Business Aviation community. Paul Cardarelli, Director of Marketing for JETNET, is co-chairman of the Summit.

Each quarter since the beginning of 2011, JETNET’s research staff has done one-on-one inquires with 500 owners and operators of business aircraft, a process that generates comprehensive data that are mined by JETNET iQ personnel for valuable insights. Aside from networking with key influencers in Business Aviation, the JETNET iQ Summit offers a unique venue for delving into the state of Business Aviation.

An area that was particularly interesting to AvBuyer was respondent answers to a list of 12 possible sources of information. When considering new or pre-owned aircraft, buyers stated that magazine articles were their second most useful and sought-after means of gathering useful data. First choice for new Aircraft information was material obtained from OEMs; first choice for respondents seeking information for pre-owned equipment was the Internet.

We are not surprised by the importance of magazine articles as sources of meaningful intelligence for aviation professionals and aircraft owners. Readers value material presented in print and available for future reference. Also, content that has been generated for a print publication such as AvBuyer is digitized and archived for internet access. The starting place, however, is content authored by respected sources and communicated clearly and interestingly.

Although not robust, North America currently is the hottest arena for pre-owned and new aircraft sales. Business Aviation, however, is a global endeavor. Thus we would like to see the benefits of JETNET iQ’s Summit offered internationally, possibly in conjunction with one of the more important gatherings of the community such as EBACE and ABACE. Aviation professionals depend upon information, effectively transmitted in compelling formats.

This Month

In this edition, we offer market analyses aplenty – Rollie Vincent gives his perspectives within Market Indicators, while Dave Higdon polls a selection of Dealers and Brokers on the current status of the pre-owned aircraft markets. Mike Chase and Marj Rose, meanwhile, provide analysis of the Helicopter markets.

Addressing the needs of the Flight Department, Ken Elliott offers an update on ADSB while Dave Higdon reviews the nuances of travelling to, or through Russia. The area of safety is well covered with Aviation Director Andre Fodor discussing his experiences of incorporating a tailor-made training program into his flight department, and Mario Pierobon discussing the threat posed by drones. Mike Chase compares the Hawker 400XP with the Citation Ultra in this month’s Comparative Analysis.

Last, but not least, within the Boardroom section Rani Singh discovers how Business Aviation isn’t just for those who you’d think can afford it as she speaks with Fly 7 executive Yves Roch; Jeremy Cox highlights the impact of lost log books on aircraft value; and David Wyndham outlines ways of communicating the value of BizAv to others within the company.

Next Month

AvBuyer turns 20 in November! For two decades this publication has been dedicated to serving the informational needs of our readers, following market trends and developments within the Business Aviation community and seeking to impart Business Aviation Intelligence to its loyal readership. We continue today to listen to what you say. Your needs continue to guide us as we enter our third decade of publication!

BIZAV INTELLIGENCE T MARKET INDICATORS

Business Aviation Market Summary As the Business Aviation community prepares to gather in Orlando, FL for the National Business Aviation Association’s annual convention (November 1-3), the state of the market is a “hot topic” on many people’s minds. And why not, asks Rollie Vincent…?

I

ndustry leaders at the sixth annual JETNET iQ Global Business Aviation Summit in New York City in midSeptember were laser-focused on the issue of business aircraft residual values, which have fallen sharply in the last 12 months.

The proverbial 800-pound elephant in the otherwise jampacked conference room, residual values are bellwether indicators of current market conditions, and the market today is unmistakably soft. By many indicators and (perhaps most compellingly) recent trends in transaction prices for new and preowned business aircraft, the supply and demand situation continues to be very unbalanced.

What Exactly is a ‘Residual Value’?

In the business aircraft world, residual value is the remaining market value of an aircraft at a given point in time. Residual values are influenced by a multitude of factors, some of which have much to do with tangible product features and an aircraft’s maintenance condition and status.

Other factors that affect an aircraft’s residual value have much more to do with the specific competitive landscape - for example, the presence or absence of other aircraft that can perform similar missions and deliver similar customer benefits. Further complicating the residual value calculus are market factors that are typically cyclical in nature – for example, where is the economy in the overall macroeconomic cycle?

In an increasingly global marketplace with highly mobile assets - aircraft that can be re-positioned quickly to operate and/or be sold to buyers in an entirely different part of the world – how do we even measure where a “market” is?

Ah, price! In the classical Marketing 101 course, we are taught about the so-called ‘Four Ps’ (Product, Place, Price and Promotion) of the Marketing Mix. As the theory goes, companies can use the Four Ps as a lens through which they can view the market and organize themselves to design, sell, and deliver a product or service that customers truly value.

In theory, price reflects the intrinsic value of product and brand attributes – for example, the total value of cabin, speed, range, payload, systems, quality, durability, reliability, service and support, and other features – that together define a business aircraft. In practice, determining an aircraft price or residual value tends to be a lot more complicated.

Much like the proverbial 10 economists in a room who espouse at least 11 different forecasts, we can be almost certain that a room of 10 aircraft sales executives and appraisal experts will come up with at least 11 different prices for a particular aircraft. Truth be told, this observation is anything but a criticism.

16

AVBUYER MAGAZINE – October 2016

If there is in fact a science to pricing, there is little doubt that it is inexact at the best of times and complicated at any time.

What’s in a Price?

For an aircraft OEM, ‘Price’ can refer to the original list price of a new aircraft, the asking price of a pre-owned aircraft, the transaction price at which a sales contract was actually written, or a multitude of other definitions.

In today’s hyper-competitive market, discounting a new aircraft to encourage a sale might be deemed to be necessary to avoid the build-up and the carrying cost of unsold finished goods inventory. No manufacturer in their right mind sets out to build ‘whitetails’. A discount might also be required to protect an OEM from losing a customer to a competitor, or as a tactical lever to protect against an encroachment of a new entrant into a strategic market segment.

With about 40 new business aircraft models competing for perhaps 600-650 new sales in 2016, aggressive discounting can have an immediate impact on the residual value of recently delivered aircraft, creating a deflationary spiral from which market recovery can be difficult. As an example, if a new aircraft contract is written at a 25% discount to list price, and this price is somehow signalled to the market, that aircraft’s residual value may have been unintentionally but effectively compromised.

What customers thought they owned – an aircraft with a resale value of $XXm - might suddenly be worth only half of its previous valuation. This drop might all sound very theoretical, but the consequences for aircraft owners, lenders and lessors are anything but.

Earlier this year, a worldwide JETNET iQ Survey of more than 500 business aircraft owners/operators in 60 countries found that almost half of those who made or influenced their organizations’ most recent aircraft purchase had delayed their decision in the prior two years over concerns about residual values (see Chart A, top right).

With almost 150 different models currently represented in the worldwide fleet of 35,000 fixed-wing turbine business aircraft (jets and turboprops), all competing for about 2,200+ whole retail pre-owned sales this year, prices and residual values are a “big deal” to aircraft owners, operators, lenders and lessors.

With 80-90% of sales typically coming from within the existing community of aircraft owners and operators, the tradein value that resides in their existing aircraft is diminished by the steepening of residual value curves. In the last 18-24 months, many dealers, brokers, lenders and lessors are reporting that the rates of price depreciation have increased to 10-12% per

MarketIndicators October16.qxp_Layout 1 20/09/2016 14:15 Page 2

year in the first five years of an aircraft’s service life, up sharply from the low-single digit percentages just a few years ago.

In recent quarters, this change has hit hardest in the large cabin business jet segment, where the gap between the value of a pre-owned aircraft and a new aircraft has grown sharply, despite OEM discounting.

This is creating a situation where many prospective buyers are remaining on the sidelines, discouraged by the step-up cost and opting to wait until values stabilize. On-going quarterly JETNET iQ Surveys confirm that the gap between pre-owned values and new aircraft purchase prices is a significant and growing inhibitor to aircraft purchases (see Chart B, right).

CHART A: Residual Value Impact on Last 2 Years of Aircraft Purchases Decision Makers & Influencers

Pre-Owned Inventory

The good news is that pre-owned aircraft are continuing to transact at relatively high levels, no doubt encouraged by lower and lower prices. Whole retail sales of pre-owned business jets have averaged between 150-200 units per month for the last four years according to JETNET records, although there are signs that the rate of change may have recently slowed. We will be watching these indicators very closely over the coming months.

Pre-owned jet inventory ‘For Sale’ represented 11.6% of the active fleet at the end of August 2016, according to the latest JETNET records. Inventory levels appear to be inching upwards after a long, steady decline - an unwelcome sign for anyone looking for residual values to stabilize or even strengthen going forward.

As a rather unique product that delivers time savings (or that in some ways actually ‘creates’ time), a speedy business aircraft continues to have little direct competition for people who know how to capitalize on the benefits of more face-to-face dealings with clients, suppliers and other stakeholders.

For others, the advantages of a business aircraft include the ability to simply get more done – and arrive home faster – than their peers. For the time being, business aircraft prices and residual values continue to slide, and an unprecedented buyer’s market continues.

For those considering an entrée into Business Aviation, now is certainly a good time to purchase a new or pre-owned aircraft.

BizAv Activity Europe

BizAv Activity - North America August Business Aviation flight activity posted its anticipated Month-overMonth (MoM) increase from July, finishing up 2.0%. Year over Year (YoY), TRAQPak data indicates that August 2016 posted an increase of 3.0%...

MoM, results by operational category were mixed for the month, with Part 91 activity up 4.0%; Part 135 fairly flat at +0.6%; and Fractional activity down -2.3%.

The aircraft categories were up MoM across the board, again led by Large Cabin jet activity. Turboprops also posted a solid 2.3% monthly rise.

Year-over-Year

Reviewing YoY flight activity (August 2016 vs. August 2015), an overall increase of 3.0% was recorded, topping 250,000 monthly flights for the second time this year.

The results by operational category were mixed, with rises in Part 91 and Part 135, but a slight drop in Fractional activity.

All aircraft categories were all positive, led by a 6.1% boost for Large Cabin jets.

MI www.argus.aero

According to WingX, there were 74,689 Business Aviation departures in Europe in August 2016, a -0.9% year-over-year (YOY) decline in activity.

Notably, business jet activity fell by -2% (versus the same period last year), largely due to declines in flight activity in Germany, Switzerland and Turkey.

Compared to August 2015, there were 750 (-27%) fewer flights in Turkey. Growth was recorded in the UK and France during August, as well as smaller markets like Norway and Belgium.

“The relapse in activity for August is linked mainly to private jet owners flying less, particularly from Russia and Turkey, and heavy jet activity in general fell sharply,” specified Richard Koe, Managing Director, WingX. “There is no doubt some wariness of the elevated terrorist threat, reflected in markedly less activity at major airports…

“There is still some growth in UltraLong-Range and Super Mid-Size segments, where aircraft order books are strongest. VLJ and certain turboprops are also continuing to increase activity, especially in Western Europe.”

Whilst jet activity took the brunt of falling demand this month, turboprop activity saw some recovery, with double digit growth in Spain, Greece and Croatia.

Flight activity within Western Europe retained its slight YTD growth trend.

Flights from Eastern Europe were 4% stronger this month, but overall activity in Southern Europe declined this year. The main outbound destination from Europe was the CIS, down -6% YOY.  MI www.wingx-advance.com

BIZAV INTELLIGENCE T MARKET INDICATORS At last month’s Business Aviation Forum in Moscow, Alexander Kuleshov, chairman of the Russian United Business Aviation Association (RUBAA), revealed they’ve been collecting traffic data on Russian Business Aviation activity since 2014…

Figures prepared by the RUBAA for June–normally the busiest month for Russian bizav—show that business jet movements have steadily declined over the past three years, as represented by Table A. Flights performed by business jets in the region’s busiest destinations, which generate more than 80 percent of traffic (including Moscow, St. Petersburg, Yekaterinburg, Samara, Nizhy Novgorod, Rostov and Sochi) have trended down. The number of business jet flights have dropped as have the number of passengers carried on these flights.

Comparing figures for the first half (H1) of the year, 2014 vs 2016, Kuleshov noticed that the number of flights performed by foreign operators shank by 34%, while those made by Russian companies rose 22%.

In summary Kuleshov noted, “Clearly, there is a general negative trend…and yet the amount of traffic generated by Business Aviation in this country remains rather big.”

Pre-Owned Gulfstream G650 Inventory Dips The number of pre-owned G650s/650ERs ‘For Sale’ has fallen from a peak of 18 in May to 13, UBS reports. This now equates to 7% of the installed base, below the typical 10% mark for used business jets.

The available inventory of pre-owned Gulfstream G650s has dropped by more than 25%, according to a recent UBS Business Jet Update published in Aviation International News. The slide in G650s on the market comes as the overall available inventories of business jets stabilize.

Pricing for the models, however, dropped another percentage point in August and is 19% below peak. This puts average preowned G650 prices about $10m below that of new G650s.

The past increase in the number of models on the market had raised concerns from analysts about the potential effect on new aircraft sales. As for pricing, Hagerty Jet Group (HJG), in its recent market update, suggested that the softening may provide opportunity for G550 owners to upgrade. HJG, noting G650 sellers “are struggling to understand this quickly changing market,” added that the asking price at the end of June still appeared 5-10% higher than it should be.

Industry-wide, used business jets ‘For Sale’ represented about 11.2% of the fleet in August, below the average of 13%.

Inventories of aircraft five years or younger crept up 1 percentage point to 7% of the installed base in August, while inventories of aircraft between six and 10 years old dropped 2 points to 10% of the installed base. However, inventories of that six-to-10-year range are still skirting near-historic highs, UBS concludes.

JSSI: ‘New Normal’ For BizAv According to JSSI’s recent Q2 2016 Business Aviation Index, global flight hours during Q2 of 2016 showed growth of 4% over the previous quarter, following the cyclical trend of higher flight hours in Q2 of a given year….

While there was QoQ growth, there was also a -1.2% decline in flight hours YoY, compared to Q2 of 2015, coinciding with a trend JSSI has seen in past presidential election years of a “holding pattern” by corporations waiting to see who becomes the next US president.

However, this is also consistent with the ‘new normal’ for flight hours, which is seen in Chart A for overall flight activity QoQ. After the peak-year in 2008 and subsequent plunge in 2009, there has been a relatively stable period overall from 2012 through 2016.

“Businesses are using private jets in a very disciplined manner today,”

observes Neil W. Book, JSSI President & CEO. “…Q2 2016’s flight activity, while slightly up over last quarter and down from last year, is reflective of a flat US economy. We are in a slow growth environment.”

By Region

Business Aviation experienced YoY growth in only two markets – Europe and South America. Of the seven regions, four (Asia-Pacific, Europe, Middle East, and North America) saw positive growth over last quarter. Of those four, only North America saw a decrease in utilization in comparison to this time period last year.

The majority of regions have seen some stabilization over the past few years. Africa, however, continues to see a steady decline in utilization since reaching highs in 2011. With five consecutive years of decreasing average

flight hours, the African market is showing little sign of recovery.

By Type

Q1 saw helicopter utilization hitting the lowest hours since 2011, but in Q2 the hours rebounded to a more normal level. The major contributing factor was the economic downturn in the power and energy sector.

“Flight hours in the large cabin aircraft segment have seen a steady, but gradual decline since Q2 of 2011. After experiencing its lowest first quarter since 2009, Q2 2016 saw more declines hitting all-time lows in average flight hours,” observed Mr. Book. “This is consistent with the current prudent usage of corporate jets. Private aviation is not a frivolous expense, but rather a valuable business tool for an increasingly interconnected global economy,” he concluded.  MI www.jetsupport.com

Hours Matter on Charter Trips Nearly half of business aircraft charter flights are booked within two days of departure, according to Avinode’s analysis of 18,000 trips over the past 12 months using the company’s SchedAero system…

Avinode found that 19% of the trips are actually booked on the day of travel, while 20% are scheduled just one day in advance.

As many as 80% of departing flights were quoted within the preceding 48 hours, and 90% within the previous five days of the travel date.

What significance does this have? Simply, operators who do not provide customer charter quotes within 48 hours of being contacted face the prospect that 80% of these trips are already booked before clients receive a response, Avinode notes.

Meanwhile, 75% of air charter trips departing within the next seven days do not exist as requests yet, and scheduling more than three days in advance is only 40% accurate.

“We were surprised by just how fast-moving a lot of our bookings are,” said SchedAero business manager Johan Sjoberg. “Flight requests are often short-notice in the Business Aviation world, but we didn’t realize that in some cases a matter of hours can make all the difference.

“If charter providers don’t have a quick enough process to quote a trip request, the flight will often have already departed.”

Asia-Pacific Charter Report According to Asian Sky Group, the Asia-Pacific region is seeing

a growth in interest in business jet charter…

The recent Asia-Pacific Business Jet Charter Report, published

by Asian Sky Group, attempts to offer a better understanding of what is available in Asia-Pacific, exploring habits of charter users throughout the region.

In-Service Aircraft Values & Maintenance Condition An Asset Insight market analysis conducted on August 30, 2016 covering 91 fixed-wing models, and 1,981 aircraft listed ‘For Sale’ revealed the following.

Aircraft values managed to reach another record low figure in August, dropping -3.3% to $5.19m. It required a joint effort

by Large Jets (down -3.4%) and Medium Jets (down -5.9%) to achieve this reduction, while Small Jets and Turboprops saw a small value uptick.

It will be interesting to see how final Transaction Values compared with Ask Prices once Q3 statistics are analysed at the end of September.

Inventory Fleet Maintenance Condition

Overall Asset Quality remained “Excellent,” while Maintenance Exposure increased slightly. Specifically: • •

The Asset Insight Quality Rating fell to 5.346 from last month’s 5.366, on our scale of -2.5 to 10, but the figure was still impressive.

Maintenance Exposure (an aircraft’s accumulated/embedded maintenance expense) increased a mere $3k to $1.459m. While this represents the highest/worst figure for the past twelve months, the Exposure amount was only slightly above the historical fleet average of $1.456m, so the news was only marginally negative.

By aircraft sector, the figures were as follows: • Large Jets: ‘Excellent’ asset quality at 5.496 (the best among all groups), albeit 3.1 AI2 basis points worse than last month’s 5.527 figure and down from the Outstanding rating the group achieved during the first seven months of this year; Maintenance Exposure worsened 3.1%, rising from $3.110m to $3.125m.

• Medium Jets: ‘Excellent’ asset quality at 5.360 (versus last month’s 5.339), keeping the group in third place among the four sectors; Maintenance Exposure remained unchanged at $1.274m.

• Small Jets: Retained second place with ‘Excellent’ asset quality at the lower rating of 5.401, versus last month’s 5.431; Maintenance Exposure improved by a nominal $4k, to $777k, as opposed to last month’s $781k.

• Turboprops: ‘Very Good’ asset quality at 5.038, but lower than July’s 5.097 rating; Maintenance Exposure remained virtually unchanged at $563k.

Maintenance Exposure to Ask Price (ETP) Ratio Our tracked fleet’s ETP Ratio (an aircraft’s Maintenance Exposure divided by its Ask Price) worsened slightly last month, increasing from 54.7% to 54.9% and posting a 12month high figure for the second consecutive month.

Twelve-month low Ask Price for Large and Medium Jets were the primary drivers.

We consider any ETP Ratio over 40% to represent excessive Exposure in relation to Ask Price, and the tracked fleet’s figure has been above 40% for the past twenty months.

By aircraft sector…

•

Large Jets: The best ETP Ratio among the four groups and, at 39.4%, below the excessive Maintenance Exposure range it crossed into last month with a figure of 40.8%. Ask Price fell nearly $500k to $13.73m from $14.22m – a 3.4% reduction and another 12-month low figure. Since January, Ask Prices for Large Jets have dropped $2.42m – approximately 15%. Sellers have felt the financial pain of devaluation during seven of the past eight months, and the group’s average value going into Q4 appears to be trending downward.

Medium Jets: ETP Ratio degraded for the fifth consecutive month, increasing to 60.7% from 58.4% and registering the group’s second consecutive worst figure for the past twelve months. Since December, Ask Prices have decreased approximately $550k, or 14.4%, to achieve a new record low figure, $3.26m.

With few apparent trades during the past thirty days, it would seem that some Sellers are seeking to move their asset before year-end by reducing their Ask Price. Keeping in mind the group’s Asset Quality improvement and stable Maintenance Exposure figure, Buyers should have little trouble locating good values.

Small Jets: The group’s ETP Ratio has been posting figures within a relatively narrow band during the past six months. At 69.7% the current figure is near the group’s 12-month worst/highest Ratio, but Buyers should note that Asset Quality is Excellent and Maintenance Exposure improved a bit this month.

With Ask Prices receding by $50k during the past thirty days, good values are available, and careful analysis of each asset is the key.

Turboprops: The ETP Ratio continues to hold second place among the four groups, improving to 43.4% from last month’s 45.4%, while Ask Price rose by $50k, to $1.58m. Ask Prices now equal the group’s 12month average and while Asset Quality was lower than last month’s figure, Maintenance Exposure remained relatively unchanged. We believe these data points continue to create good opportunities for both Buyers and Sellers.

Market Summary

In last month’s report, we advised that if we take into account the inexpensive, life-extending technical solutions available to aging aircraft owners, the number of new assets being manufactured, and the number of aircraft listed for sale, we are unlikely to see a sustainable increase in the average Ask Price.

That forecast proved all-too-accurate all-too-quickly, with average Ask Prices this month hitting a new all-time low point. However, purchase or sale price is but one factor of an effective value optimization strategy.

An equal, if not more important, component is careful analysis of the maintenance cost exposure the asset is facing during your anticipated ownership period. If you’re a Buyer or a Seller – learn how to justify the value of your aircraft’s asset quality against competing units. The cost to do so is insignificant, literally equating to less than 0.07% of an average turboprop.

Used Aircraft Market Going Placesâ&#x20AC;Ś

Slowly the Numbers Look Better, But at What Cost?

Analyzing data from various sources and piecing together several conversations

with brokers and dealers, Dave Higdon notes the first half of 2016 brought some improvements in sales of pre-owned business aircraft - but at what cost? nventories of Light and Medium jets during the first half of 2016 exceeded the historic norms. The impact of that inventory glut came in the form of average asking prices dropping by low double-digits that, in turn, help sales edge up by low single-digits. That was the good news of the first half of 2016.

In parallel with pre-owned sales, the industry saw

AVBUYER MAGAZINE â&#x20AC;&#x201C; October 2016

deliveries of new business jets and turboprops all decline, with the biggest hit landing on the Large jets.

Used Aircraft Market Overview

According to market analyses, used aircraft sales during the opening six months of 2016 edged only slightly above the number of transactions in the same period of 2015, with JETNET putting the gain

www.AVBUYER.com

Aircraft Index see Page 143

Dealer Broker Market Oct16.qxp_Finance 19/09/2016 16:38 Page 2

growth trend continued into Q3, with more available aircraft and lower asking prices prevailing through July and August. Said one broker specializing in international transactions, overseas weaknesses contributed most to the bad news: “Africa cooled off, China cooled off and South America cooled off.

Meanwhile business aircraft use in Brazil dropped; a reflection of that country's economic struggles.”

One East Coast dealer's top marketing executive concurred, offering that the slowdown in sales of both new and pre-owned Large jets reflects the economic struggles in Asia and South America.

“Even the Middle East has slacked off, but not as steeply as other parts of the world.”

And as inventories grow, sale prices will likely continue to slide. “When it hits here, whether it hits here, nobody knows,” the East Coast executive added. “The US market has held up better than many of us expected for longer than average.”

Dave Higdon is a highly respected aviation journalist who has covered all aspects of civil aviation over the past 35 years. Based in Wichita, he has several thousand flight hours, and has piloted pretty much everything from foot-launched wings to combat jets. Contact him via Dave@avbuyer.com

A Growing Economy Helps

at 1.9%, and feedback from the dealers and brokers we polled (see below) supports that view – but selectively, and by segment.

Markets started turning sluggish right after the midpoint of the year and signs (per the feedback from our dealers and brokers) point toward a slowdown in-progress.

According to JETNET's August report, askingprice averages declined in the first half of 2016, down by a hefty 11.2%. For the same period, the inventory of available pre-owned aircraft grew to 11.7%, a half-point increase over the available preowned business-turbine fleet in the same period for 2015 – but still below the historic average of 13%.

Brokers and dealers indicate that the inventory Advertising Enquiries see Page 4

A Southeast US broker believes there are some signs of the US market cooling, but he and others don't believe it is economics that has some potential buyers hesitating. “Most of it is the political environment. Some folks have simply decided to wait out the weeks leading up to the election. Overall, our economic indicators are better than our political indicators.”

He points to solid gains in the stock market; a market that rose to record highs in July and early August with steady, respectable job growth, decent profit reports and continued low interest rates. “The recent hints of a possible interest rate increase from the Federal Reserve don't seem to be a big issue because the increase will almost certainly result in interest rates still well below the historic norms,” the Southeastern broker continues.

“And there's more finance available and it's available across the board – for new, pre-owned, older pre-owned and really old pre-owned.”

Nevertheless, he adds, some prospects fear the election result could spur another recession. “These folks are frankly worried about which way the country will go depending on the results of November 8th.”

“The US market has held up better than many of us expected for longer than average.”

Not Enough...

Other indices reflect a continuation of a weak market for used business aircraft, and one in particular has seen little change all year. The UBS BizJet Market Index started trending downward early in the year, and it remained at 29 points in July's report - not only the lowest the index has seen since 2009 but far below the 50 point mark that indicates strengthening in the market.

Other indicators during 2016 have wavered only slightly, with inventory moving down and back up by www.AVBUYER.com

a single-digit percentage point through the year. The latest observations and surveys put the current inventory upward toward that 13-percent historic average while growing about a point per month as it edges upward, according to a consensus figure from several brokers.

“What's troubling to many of us,” elaborates one West Coast broker, “is that what has kept the number from growing faster and higher has come from the withdrawal of aircraft from the active ‘For Sale’ marketplace.

“A small percentage of the aircraft listed don't really seem to be ‘For Sale’ – the owners aren't lowering their prices and many are no longer getting offers because they've refused offers that could have moved the airplane into the 'Sold' column previously. But this seems to be the trend across the board – new, pre-owned, jets, turboprops...almost everything.”

Latent Optimism Holds...

“Know anyone looking? Whatever they need, we can find them the airplane…”

That was the opening of a conversation with a Midwest broker who works with high-performance Piston Singles to Large jets and even Businessliners. “The choices may not be at an all-time high, but they are higher than we like to see – and likely to get higher.

“That should make it easy to match up a prospect with a seller! Now I just need to hear from more prospects,” he added. This broker questioned why prospective buyers wait when what they need is available, airworthy and ‘a good deal’.“A couple of my clients are ready to take an offer – I know because they're calling me, weekly, to remind me that they are ready to negotiate.”

trending lower this broker is confident that things will start to break open and people will begin dealing again.

“When they hear that the interest rate increase from the Federal Reserve is a percentage point – or less; when the election is over and people stop worrying about what could go wrong; when prospective customers see their accountants to get ready for year-end adjustments....that's when we expect things to pick up. We won't see the pool hit 13 percent.”

He cautions that he’s not predicting the strong swing upward experienced in the aftermath of the so-called ‘Great Recession’, but a swing strong enough to start airplane sales moving again, help transactions close and stimulate money changing hands.

Helicopter Market Analysis Cooling Market Trends Continue In this JETNET >>KNOW MORE analysis Mike Chase & Marj Rose review the current climate of the Helicopter industry, offering insight on new and used transactions and current market conditions…

T

he mood in the helicopter market has cooled somewhat in recent months. The oil industry turndown that has impacted economic conditions globally has also created significant challenges for the helicopter segment of the Business Aviation community.

Although all of us like the lower gasoline prices that have resulted from lower oil prices, the helicopter market has suffered from the oil glut because of the limited offshore activity in oil drilling operations around the world.

New Helicopter Shipments H1 2016 vs H1 2015

Turbine & Piston Helicopter Shipments and Billings were reported by GAMA for the first six months of 2016 recently.

Table A (below) compares the numbers reported with those reported by GAMA for the same period in 2015. We can see more than a -30% drop in total billings and a -16.1% decline in total shipments. Some readers may observe that decline as less of a ‘cool’ market, and more of a market in deep freeze!

Used Turbine & Piston Helicopters

Table B (below) shows the used helicopter worldwide trends for June 2016 and a comparison of H1 2016 versus H1 2015.

The market for Turbine helicopters finished H1 2016 with 7.0% of the fleet ‘For Sale’ (a 0.5 point increase compared with H1 2015), while the Piston helicopters fleet ‘For Sale’ reached 5.7%, a 0.1 point increase over H1 2015.

Reviewing the number of full retail sale transactions in H1 2016 compared to H1 2015, both the Turbine and Piston markets showed double-digit declines. The used Turbine helicopter market declined by -12.4% and there was a decrease of -2.6% in the average asking prices.

The used Piston helicopter market saw a decline of -22.4% in the full retail sale transactions but a 5.1% increase in the average asking prices. In addition, used Piston helicopters remained on the market ‘For Sale’ for a shorter period (-40 days) before they sold in H1 2016 compared to H1 2015.

New Helicopter Shipment Observations

In spite of the adverse overall market performance in 2016 vs 2015, interestingly Airbus Helicopters actually enjoyed an increase in the number of shipments this year over last (146 vs 113) and in billings ($658m vs $555m).

However, until this year Robinson Helicopter Company has enjoyed a successful introduction of its R66 turbine model.

During H1 2016 there were 25 new R66 shipments, representing a large drop from the 64 units reported in H1 2015.

Nevertheless, there were 67 shipments of the new R44 Raven II piston powered helicopter representing five more units from the 62 shipments in H1 2015.

Used Aircraft Sales Trends Update on the Used Aircraft Sales Markets…

If you look at the market as a whole, it sure doesn’t seem to be that exciting notes Vref’s Fletcher Aldredge. However, there certainly are some positive things happening right now… mong the positives occurring in Business Aviation, Cessna delivered its 7,000th Citation worldwide while the G280 logged a speed record from Grand Rapids, MI to Luton, England in 7 hours at Mach 0.82, boosting the jet’s record-breaking tally to 54.

On July 8th, Honda earned its production certificate from the FAA and is ready to ramp up production of the HondaJet. On July 15th, third party medical reform was signed, and activity for the light single engine piston market has picked up somewhat. Sales for the light piston twin market are also improving while values for the overall single piston market are holding steady.

In the past year, the light single aircraft has actually gone up in value very slightly by 0.12%.

Values for the twin have risen by 3.16%. Jet values on the other hand, not so much…

In a market that has been plagued by slow growth in the past few years, sometimes it’s easy to forget that any growth is always better than none.

There are definitely good and exciting possibilities happening.

Aircraft by the Numbers

How is the total number of aircraft ‘For Sale’ affecting today’s market? That number is directly impacting the values of planes, especially Large jets. With an increasing inventory, there are several key things that can be done to make sure that yours doesn’t sit on the market too long.

• Price aggressively.

• Use a reputable broker. (They can provide a complete analysis and market your airplane in the manner needed to spark the interest of the right buyer and help with many purchase details.)

• Be flexible and keep your eye on the prize. The transaction is not complete until the airplane has a new captain. T More information from www.vrefpub.com Fletcher Aldredge is publisher of the industry-respected Vref Aircraft Value Reference Guide.

International Business Aviation Operations (Part 6)

Russia: Eleven Time Zones, Plenty of Local Variations - and Don't Forget your Navigator…

International operators experienced in flying business aircraft in Russia advise total preparation, Dave Higdon notes. Avoid leaving any detail untended, and consider using a local agent or professional trip planner. Here’s a checklist for transiting Russian airspace… ven with all of the necessary precautions taken, those experienced in travelling to and over Russia still advise operators to be prepared for surprises resulting from unexpected demands, delays or expenditures.

Post-Soviet Russia remains as bureaucratic and process-driven as any Socialist regime, with the impact of official corruption ever-near, ready to trip up even the best prepared traveler.

While General Aviation flying for Russian citizens

has improved in recent years, experts advise that if any country warrants a third-party provider, groundhandling representative or professional trip planner – in-country – it's Russia. While the processes themselves aren't particularly onerous, the need to manage the details of permits, visas and permissions makes for a degree of uncertainty, especially when operating beyond the few large airports with airline service and facilities familiar to Western operators.

Travelers shouldn't expect perfect consistency in

catering, etc., add up to make flying into Russia among the more-expensive propositions for business aircraft operators. Russia imposes navigation fees, airport fees, aircraft parking and ground handling charges, while fuel costs reportedly run higher than in most neighboring countries.

Accommodations in the 4-star range within the Moscow metropolitan area may exceed $450-500 per night for crew. And then there's another rippled effect of Russia's economic challenges: significant variations in currency exchange rates. Even exchange fees can be significant.

Be prepared.

Preparations Start with Proper Paperwork

the application of rules, regulations and airport operating hours. Spread across 11 time zones, local officials can impose the vagaries and variability possible when they operate largely independently of national oversight.

And if you plan to stop at any facility that isn’t an airport of entry, be prepared to hire a domestic navigator.

An Expensive Destination

Russia's economy in recent years hasn't exactly been friendly to the natives, so it's unsurprising that it has had an impact on the use and popularity of Business Aviation among the country's domestic operators. Of course, these problems roll over onto the costs of visiting the country and traveling within her borders.

High aviation fees, expensive accommodations and food, and the cost of security, trip support, Advertising Enquiries see Page 4

Among the advance preparations to undertake before traveling to Russia are the paperwork requirements imposed by the state. The requirements for visas vary with the type of operation involved – Part 91 versus 135 – and the number of destinations planned within the country.

Flight permits, landing permissions and overflight permits should be arranged well in advance of your planned departure date – and reconfirmed within a few days of departure. An extra check is also considered a smart idea, as circumstances allow.

Be sure your country of departure doesn't impose any additional requirements, since Russia is not on the best terms with all of its neighbors.

No visa is normally needed for an operator making a technical stop. A visa will be required for additional planned stops at most locations, however. But some areas within Russia require visas for flights making a single stop inside the country. Hence the repeated recommendations to work with a third-party trip planner or local agent.

All of the above visa requirements are for passengers. For crew, visas are a must – and they must be acquired before arriving. The penalty for landing without crew visas may be as little as a warning or as much as a big fine. Add other landings without crew visas and you can expect the fines to increase and continue to increase with each additional indiscretion.

The penalties peak at a total travel ban from Russia that lasts for five years. Thus, agents and trip planners counsel you to make visas a top priority for everyone on board, obtained well in advance.

Dave Higdon has covered all aspects of civil aviation over the past 35 years. Based in Wichita, he’s a renowned journalist, and an active instrument-rated pilot with more than 5,000 flight hours in everything from foot-launched wings to combat jets.

“Spread across 11 time zones, local officials can impose the vagaries and variability possible when they operate largely independently of national oversight.”

Permits & Documentation

To land in Russia you must have a landing permit – it's required for all aircraft traveling to Russia. Before you can acquire a landing permit you'll need to show the aircraft's airworthiness certificate, registration and insurance documentation. That takes care of the aircraft.

For the pilots and flight attendants you'll need to show the flight crew's licenses and medical certificates appropriate for the license. That's for Part 91 private operations – and applies to aircraft seating no more  than 19. www.AVBUYER.com

For charter operators, Russia also wants to see an Aircraft Operator’s Certificate. Russia's Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) may accept temporary registration certificates; it's strictly on a case-by-case basis and is decided when the operator applies.

Then there are country-specific requirements. For example, operators of French-registered aircraft need a letter from France's CAA. And there are individual airport requirements. Not all of Russia's airports have fire-fighting equipment, for example. Thus when flying into an airport lacking fire coverage you’ll need to have a “crew crash card” available, and send that document in advance in order to obtain a landing permit. Again, an incountry agent can help make sure you cover this requirement.

All this bureaucracy takes time to work, which requires planning accordingly. The lead time for landing and overflight permits varies with the number of times you visit Russia in a month.

If visiting Russia between one and four times in a month, the permit lead time is a reasonable one day.

Exceed four visits in a month and the lead time grows significantly – to 14 days for a landing permit.

Of course, the CAA may consider permit applications on short notice but approval is strictly at the agency's discretion. And you can discount any thought of getting permits processed on weekends or Russian holidays. The CAA offices are closed.

For non-scheduled operators Russia extended the flexibility of landing permits a few years ago. Now permits become valid starting at 0001 UTC on day of operation and stay valid for 48 hours. The change significantly improved flexibility for operators, as did changes in the circumstances requiring permit revisions.

sovereign airspace. Finally, no landings can occur for flights between the Republic of Georgia and Russia.

And with the current hostilities between Ukraine, Russia, and Russian-backed Ukrainian separatists, be sure you're up to date on flight constraints in the airspace adjoining Ukraine, the Crimean Peninsula and the Russian mainland.

Airports: Good Security, Variable Hours

Few of Russia's 140+ airports operate 24-hours a day. Those that do will be the airports serving major cities such as Moscow. But operators can be comfortable that the airport is secure. Beyond that, things can vary significantly.

Hours and levels of service vary considerably, so working with your third-party planner or agent can help assure that you land at your destination while the lights are still on. The paucity of airports across Russia's vast expanses becomes more acute the further east you fly. Remember, the country stretches across 11 time zones.

Depending on your ultimate destination the company aircraft may get you only so far, requiring ground transportation to reach your destination.

Planning for alternative airports for whatever reason can become even more of an issue in Russia's far east.

For some of the larger destinations in eastern Russia the alternative options are like an entirely separate trip. For example, if your flight to Petropavlovsk (UHPP) has to divert for any reason you're 480nm away from the nearest available alternate – Magadan (UHMM) - a diversion promising more complications than time and money. Factor into such diversions the need to revise flight permits, overflight permits, navigation fees and the availability of ground-handling services at that alternate airport.

AVBUYER MAGAZINE – October 2016

www.AVBUYER.com

Fewer than 150 airports – most of them on the smaller end of the scale – is not a lot of airports for a country spanning more than 6.6m square miles.

Many airports lack basic services such as deicing or even snow and ice treatment of runways.

Indeed, winter throughout Russia can prompt short-notice runway or full-airport closures, and an aircraft trapped by weather may face a lengthy delay in departure plans. So planning, as one trip agent explained, should be approached similarly to flying into the bush of an undeveloped country.

Finally, remember this: To fly into most of Russia's domestic airports a domestic navigator must be on board. Make your request when applying for your landing permit, and use your trip planner or in-country agent to help you work with one of the suppliers Russia approves for this work.

This requirement eliminates your ability to fly directly to such domestic airports, since the flight must land at an airport of entry to pick up the navigator. And after flying the leg or legs to the domestic airports, the aircraft will have to return to the AOE to drop off the domestic navigator before departing the country.

On the bright side, this requirement does provide a measure of language security, since controllers and ground crew at those smaller airports probably will use the Russian language for communications.

Thorough Planning and Flexibility…

In summary, pretty much every area of the trip should be planned thoroughly, with a flexible approach to handle any number of potential short-notice problems or alterations to those plans. Ideally this will be done in collaboration with in-country expertise for all stages of the trip. T Aircraft Index see Page 143

s a refresher, Automatic Dependent Surveillance - Broadcast mode out (ADS-B Out) automatically broadcasts an aircraft’s situational data, including its position 1) to other aircraft directly; 2) rebroadcast via ground stations to other aircraft; and 3) both direct and rebroadcast, as Traffic Information Service Broadcast (TIS-B) to air traffic control. Its purpose is to complement ground radar, providing equivalent or better data even where radar coverage does not exist.

Via satellite, ADS-C (as Contract) provides oceanic broadcast while work is underway to provide ADS-B worldwide, both terrestrially and oceanic, without the

need for ground stations. Not least, ADS-B is becoming a useful search and rescue tool, because of its aircraft tracking capability and all that implies.

Apart from its current continental radar-like coverage, ADS-B Out: • Improves ATC’s ability to handle flight level and route change requests, mid-flight; • Facilitates continuous descents and climbs, saving time and fuel; • Needs no voice-based position reports; • Reduces the work of ATC, in turn improving the ability of ATC to support flights in progress.

aircraft to see a similar presentation to that viewed by ATC controllers. Other aircraft, position and trending information within 150nm can be displayed on compatible cockpit displays, overlaid on navigational moving maps. ADS-B In will also enhance surface operations for most users in the near future.

Equipage

Referencing data from the General Aviation Manufacturers Association (GAMA), 204,408 of the World’s 362,000 Business and General Aviation (B&GA) aircraft operate in the US today, but only 32,250¹ are equipped with Automatic Dependent Surveillance (ADS-B Out) as of August 15, 2016. Between now and January 2020, all aircraft must be equipped with ADS-B Out, thus 84% of the B&GA fleet remains to be updated.

Taking all four groups of Business and General Aviation aircraft together (including rotorcraft), there are 154,633 aircraft still to undertake an ADS-B installation. From mid-August 2016 through to the end of December 2019, there are nearly 41 months to go until the US ADS-B Out deadline of January 1, 2020. Is there sufficient time to meet the compliance deadline?

In the US alone, 3,772 aircraft per month will need to be fitted with ADS-B Out. Just for Business Jets, and assuming a current uptake of 12% (a little more than average), there will need to be hangar space for 265 aircraft each month for the three years remaining. This equates to over five aircraft being completed in each US state, for each month.

Completion schedules amount to an ideal world solution, given the awkward situation that exists. Everybody knows that the reality will be an exponential curve of uptake, starting from today’s low number to very high modification rates during 2019.

An ongoing debate continues about target numbers for the total amount of aircraft that will need to be equipped by 2020.

However, for turboprops and business jets, the target is close to 100% of the fleet, due to the airspace sectors in which they invariably operate.

race to the finish. Why should operators behave any differently with yet another acronym?

Aircraft facilities and avionics shops are frustrated with the prospect of overfilled capacity. It creates mayhem for their engineering team, installers and jugglers of hangar space. It also impacts their ability to cope with other regularly scheduled maintenance from their loyal long-term customers.

Following are some of the actions facilities may be forced to take, for late adopters: • Put their scheduled customers first; • Put their loyal customer’s first; • Consider temporary contract labor; • Outsource engineering and other services; • Leave, and even work on drop-in customer outside; • Juggle the downtime and try their best to fit drop-in work within their full schedule.

Unfortunately for those ADS-B late adopters, this situation will mean greater cost, longer downtime and an increased risk of unsuspected logistical issues.

The message is clear: The FAA and other international authorities are not likely to move the deadline dates. Why? Because the ADS-B infrastructure is fully in place, functional and saving government money. The system further improves safety and situational awareness. Also, ADS-B has formed the backbone

Deja-vu

to many upcoming NextGen and SESAR programs, intended to benefit all national airspace users.

There is an FAA early-install rebate program contemplated (the proposed September 1, 2016 start date was delayed) but only available to US fixed-wing, single-engine piston aircraft, first registered before January 1, 2016.

Operators equipping for ADS-B fall into many different buyer categories and for some, late adoption is the clever option examples being an owner who is looking to sell without any additional equity in the aircraft, and an owner who may upgrade to a different aircraft sometime between now and 2020. Late adoption would further apply to an owner that suspects the need to dispose of the aircraft before the deadline, due to ongoing volatile corporate finances.

What is not clever, however, is to hold out for lower pricing.

Even if the equipment price comes down, the installation costs will go up. Holding out also increases the risk of logistic issues, including schedule delays and increased downtime once work is underway.

Free ADS-B In Services

In a fit of sensibility, why not add ADS-B In during the installation of ADS-B Out, and save on the downtime? While the future requirement is for ADS-B Out, when you consider adding ADS-B In capability, your aircraft will have access to Flight Information Service–Broadcast (FIS-B), providing graphical weather and textbased advisories to the cockpit.

Additionally, as a safety tool, ADS-B In provides TIS-B, relaying altitude, distance, ground track and speed of other aircraft being monitored by ATC within a 15-nautical mile radius, up to 3,500 feet above or below the receiving aircraft's position.

Most Business and General Aviation aircraft have some version of display that provides for an external video input, permitting those equipped with ADS-B In to see surrounding aircraft and graphic weather. Because the view is similar to that seen by an air traffic controller, there is a sense of shared situational awareness along with crucial see-and-avoid capability.

ADS-B In users also receive important flight information, such as temporary flight restrictions or closed runways. Later, ADS-B In users will be able to avoid terrain during low-visibility situations, as terrain maps are integrated to the same cockpit displays.

Because ADS-B Out information can be broadcast on two frequencies, 1090 MHz and 978 MHz, Automatic Dependent Surveillance–Rebroadcast (ADS-R) relays data from one frequency to the other, providing aircraft operating on both ADS-B frequencies the ability to see each other on their individual traffic displays.

ADS-B Out Solutions

There are currently 5,549 ADS-B Out solutions mapped to 2,031 unique make/model combinations of aircraft.

Solutions for ADS-B are part of the TC process for new aircraft and amended TC or STC process for retrofit. The equipment is certified on each aircraft platform using either the aircraft OEM or other approved aircraft and avionics facilities. The equipment providers in Table B (and others) work closely with facilities for integrated solutions that the aircraft owners will purchase.

Some of the approvals apply to a wide range of aircraft types.

This is where a certification is completed to one aircraft model and, because of technical commonality, can be applied to a broader group. These type of certifications fall under an Advertising Enquiries see Page 4

Approved Model List (AML), either under aircraft production or as a modification.

The FAA has a useful tool for operators to enter their aircraft type and model in order to find new or retrofit as well as complete or partial solutions by different providers. In some cases, the tool allows for using different mixes of equipment. The FAA website provides the ability for operators to choose from multiple selections, where they exist (see http://www.faa.gov/nextgen/equipadsb/adsb_ready/).

Operator Compliance

Having ADS-B Out in your aircraft is only part of the effort to be 2020 compliant. The FAA and other airworthiness authorities need to be certain the ADS-B solution installed in the serialnumbered aircraft actually meets its intended function. That requirement makes sense because other aircraft and ATC will be relying on the accuracy of the automated broadcasts from your aircraft.

The tool used for checking your ADS-B functionality is called Compliance Monitor by the FAA. In the US, to find out if your system is working properly, complete the Public ADS-B Performance Report Request at the FAA Equip ADS-B website; https://adsbperformance.faa.gov/PAPRRequest.aspx.

Equip ADS-B

Equip ADS-B (https://www.faa.gov/nextgen/equipadsb/) is a useful FAA tool for those looking to equip, and for actual users. It addresses the three major areas of Research, Installation and Capabilities.

Beyond these three areas, it provides a full list of solutions and a place to report user problems. On the same website, browsers may review a FAQ section where more than half the questions answered are relatively new, so this is a recommended read for any flight department.

A further FAA ADS-B website is Equip-2020, launched to encourage reluctant operators to equip sooner rather than later.

This website is supported by the Equip ADS-B site.

Enhanced ADS-B

Also termed ‘Space-Based ADS-B’, Enhanced ADS-B proposes expansion of its capability to address separate initiatives being evaluated by ICAO, Canada and FAA. The goal is to improve the surveillance of aircraft flying Oceanic tracks and to reduce separation. For the US, the proposals include its own national 

airspace. Oceanic areas under consideration are NAT, Pacific and WATRS airspace regions.

ADS-B, because of its accuracy and reliability, will be a useful contributor to other programs such as InTrail Procedures (ITP).

Separately, as space-based, ADS-B is used for aircraft tracking in different world regions. Aircraft position information is becoming widely available due to the broadcasting of ADS-B data from aircraft to aircraft, and between them and ATC. Additionally, ADS-C (Contract) uses satellites for the transfer of surveillance data in oceanic regions. Subject to privacy authorizations, this same information finds its way to anyone, anywhere, when using tracking companies such as FlightAware, Plane Finder and ADS-B Exchange.

Further sources for figuring out aircraft locations are time-delayed FAA feeds and multilateration (MLAT) calculations, used by the various tracking specialists.

Flight Radar 24 recently announced completion of their first space-based ADS-B flight tracking test, in cooperation with Airbus Defence & Space and GomSpace. Using the GOMX-3 satellite, they collected ADS-B data from flights transiting the Atlantic Ocean.

This effort is one of the first steps towards integrating satellite-collected ADS-B data into existing networks, bringing global ADS-B coverage closer than ever.

There is a vulnerability concern with any satellite based technology, due to the risk of

hacking, tampering, jamming and who knows what else. Thus, pilots will always be well served to hone and practice basic piloting and navigation skills, just in case.

ADS-B: An Evolving Tool

Because of the information provided between aircraft to aircraft, and aircraft to ATC, the use of ADS-B in the longer-term, and in many countries is crucial to the growing elements of air traffic planning.

ADS-B plays a major role in national airspace ‘ondemand information’, as the need for such data exponentially expands. ADS-B also contributes to these evolving aircraft movement areas: • Separation management: - In-Trail Procedures (ITPs) - Time-Based Flow Management (TBFM) - Flight Interval Management (FIM) - Unmanned Aircraft Detect & Avoid - Flexible routing • Continuous Descent Approaches (CDAs) • Performance-Based Navigation (PBN) • Optimized Trajectories, including Oceanic • Surface Operations • Overall Traffic Flow Management (TFM).

Summary

Automatic Dependent Surveillance is a powerful tool and remarkably, across some regions of the world, much of the infrastructure is already in place and working.

As expected, equipage rates are low for the amount of time left until 2020. While the advantages of fleet-wide equipage are obvious, they may be less clear to each individual operator and hard to justify early equipage to corporate HQ. It is clear, however, that the ADS-B mandate is fixed, the turnkey installation price is not likely to fall, and the number of hangar slots is not likely to climb.

If there is one overriding business case to equip at this time, or at least schedule the upgrade, it is the avoidance of risk and the specter of unknown contractors working on your aircraft, possible errors, increased downtime and not being in the hangar throughout the work schedule.

Why? Because shops will be forced to hire unknown contractors, will be rushed, and run the possibility of errors or increased downtime while taking care of loyal or appropriately scheduled customers. Such hassle has happened during previous mandates and could have been avoided. T www.AVBUYER.com

Dealing with Drones What Role Does the Flight Department Have in Alleviating the Threat?

In August 2015 a drone nearly collided with a medical helicopter transporting

a patient to a hospital in Fresno, California, notes Mario Pierobon. How should

your Flight Department be trained to cope with a similar drone encounter? lying at approximately 1,000 feet altitude, the pilot of the medical helicopter spotted a large drone directly in his flight path. Thanks to his swift reactions, the pilot manoeuvred to avoid the drone, preventing a potentially catastrophic collision by about 20 feet. The incident occurred just two miles from Fresno Yosemite International Airport in a no-fly zone.

The context of the Fresno occurrence provides opportunity to reflect on an emerging hazard to the

safety of flight for aviation generally, including all aspects of Business Aviation. Over the last few years drone technology has developed significantly, posing new challenges to aircraft operators and air traffic management alike.

Such is the threat that international licensing and requirements are being developed for drone operations, specifying how remotely controlled vehicles should be integrated safely and legally into the airspace they occupy.

www.AVBUYER.com

Aircraft Index see Page 143

Safety Sept16.qxp_Finance 19/09/2016 16:16 Page 2

“Emergency procedures thus become control mechanisms targeted at reducing the severity of an accident outcome.”

In the meantime, the risk of mid-air collision with drones is receiving the attention of many crews. In the commercial airline world several air safety reports have been made public in recent times regarding near collisions with drones, predominantly in the vicinity of airports.

Earlier this year the European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) created a task force to assess the risks posed by drones—focussing on the review of all relevant occurrences; analysing existing studies on the subject; studying the vulnerabilities of aircraft (i.e. windshields, engines, and airframe); taking into account the different categories of aircraft and their associated design and operational requirements; as well as exploring the possibility for further research and for testing (on windshields, engines and airframes, etc.).

But what can the safety-conscious Flight Department do to deal with the emerging risk of collision with drones as it waits for international safety requirements to be developed and enforced?

Preparing for the Unexpected

Currently it is very much down to individual Business Aviation operators to deal with the potential of Advertising Enquiries see Page 4

collision with drones. As a part of continuous improvement of aviation safety management the hazard registers should be kept fully up-to-date, and the hazard of uncontrolled drone operations in airspace should be given due consideration.

As drone activities are still only emerging, nearmisses with manned aircraft are still quite rare. Yet there should be no room for complacency within a flight department towards the threat faced.

It is very unlikely that a flight-crew will detect a possible collision-threat posed by a stray drone via the Traffic Collision Avoidance System (TCAS) as a drone is unlikely to be fitted with a transponder. More likely, the risk of collision will be visually recognised as the crew spots a drone is in the flightpath – in which case the standard procedure (to be stressed as a control mechanism in the hazard analysis) is to initiate a controlled turn to the right.

Yet there are many circumstances in which the drone may not be visually detected, either because the field of view doesn’t permit, or because its presence is simply not perceived by the flight-crew.

Both instances could lead to a collision necessitating the need for the applicable emergency procedures to be initiated (depending on the result of the collision).

Emergency procedures thus become control mechanisms targeted at reducing the severity of an accident outcome.

Pilots already have many tasks to accomplish in flight, especially during the phases of flight when the risk of collision with drones is heightened such as take-off or final approach. Nevertheless, an additional control measure to include in the Flight Department’s hazard training is to insist that flight crews appreciate that a collision with drones is within the realms of possibility.

Crews should be prepared to detect uncontrolled drone operations, and be fully cognizant of what procedures to follow should a drone strike occur… T www.AVBUYER.com

I made a crucial decision to elect another pilot within the flight department as my Pilot in Command until my management duties eased-up.

It proved to be a good decision that kept our safety standards high.

The Path to Better Safety

Since we operate under CFR 91 (General Aviation) there is no mandatory training requirement beyond annual recurrent training. Being a small flight department, we identified the need to maintain high proficiency and a mindset that leads to  constant learning awareness.

get the IS-BAO certificate hanging on the wall, but no drive to implement its safety standards for the sake of operational efficiencies. I wanted tangible and practical results that would lead to strong Standard Operating Procedures and safety practices; if the aggregate leads us to an IS-BAO certificate, then I will embrace it.

Instead, I approached a company who specialized in flight training content to develop a tailored annual program for my flight department.

Today, everyone in the team is assigned a block of on-line classes to be completed over the year.

We emphasize that there is no rush to complete the assigned coursework, and we meter the material so it is released over the year.

The intention is to keep everyone’s mindset focused on learning, rather than to generate additional workload.

Our pilots receive training in corporate security, flight operations and international procedures, and our flight attendant learns about food safety and emergency procedures. Our Director of Maintenance learns about record-keeping and accounting. Everyone learns about Hazardous Materials and work safety, and we emphasize the importance of strong interpersonal relationships.

A Timely Reminder

“I’ve seen first-hand how structured training helped pilots stay proficient and I wanted the same for my team.”

70

Step 1: We began with baby steps, first enlisting a medical professional to train our team in CPR and First Aid before developing a program tailored for our operations. Our CPR and Defibrillator hands-on training takes place inside our aircraft where we simulate real life flight emergencies. We train, for example, to handle a medical event while crossing the Atlantic.

Today, we conduct emergency procedure drills every three months or prior to any extended overwater flight, and we have noticed that cohesion within the team has strengthened. We became better at making, executing and sticking to a plan.

We discussed international corporate safety, became more compartmentalized in our communications about upcoming flights and discussed real-life events that could happen to us during a trip. That was phase one.

Step 2: Having worked as a manager for one of the largest charter operations in the world, I’ve seen first-hand how structured training helped pilots stay proficient and I wanted the same for my team.

I chose to not pursue IS-BAO certification at this juncture. That decision was taken based on my previous experience in which there was a race to

Here’s a little confession: Last year I didn’t complete all my flight training assignments. As I discussed the coursework for the upcoming year with the chief instructor of our training provider, he asked me if I needed a reduced workload. The question reminded me that daily I need to make time for proficiency; that there is learning to be undertaken. It kept me in check, reminding me of my responsibility to maintain and improve skills every day.

I am so proud of my team. Recently, I dispatched them on a difficult mission without me. During the trip in which they transported the principal and his wife, an unexpected circumstance required a radical change in schedule and logistics. The team performed magnificently without me, and the lead pilot messaged me, “we’ve got this, all handled to our standards”.

I knew immediately what he meant - no follow up questions were required.

Our mission statement is clear; we aim high and deliver unprecedented quality. A rubberstamp for the professionalism of the team, I subsequently received a handwritten note from our chairman. It read: “Your team did great work tonight without you – a sign of great leadership”.

He saw value in how much we invest in training and empowering people within our flight department. It all came together in this opportunity for them to shine. My team has wings, and can fly solo! T

FLIGHT DEPARTMENT RETAIL PRICE GUIDE

Medium Jets:

Just the Right Fit for Many Operators...

Of all the business jet categories, none does more to

balance capability with utility than the Medium Jet segment; and no segment provides more options, either.

or the purpose of our Retail Price Guide, Medium Jets are loosely defined as aircraft with a Maximum Take-Off Weight between 20,001-40,000 lbs. There’s no disputing the advantages of space as you step into a Medium Jet cabin, particularly when applied to longer trips. That is ultimately where the Medium Jets’ basic advantage comes into play over the Light Jet segment.

Medium Jets tend to cruise towards the upperend of the private jet speed range (between Mach 0.78 and Mach 0.85). While on average faster than the Light Jet, a Medium Jet’s superior speed generally provides only a few minutes of gain on the typical Business Aviation trip of 350 to 500 miles, but the difference will become noticeable on longer legs exceeding 1,000 miles.

In terms of range, the average Medium Jet can reach most of the US non-stop from almost anywhere else within the US, making them excellent candidates for the operator with regular transcontinental travel needs. That range capability also gives the crew the flexibility to string together a sequence of stops that total the same distance – making it possible for a Medium Jet to cover multiple locations and still get home at the days’ end, without buying fuel along the way.

Runway requirements for Medium Jets are generally longer than the average length needed by a Light Jet – but nevertheless Medium Jets can still access a significant percentage of the secondary airports serving most of the 150 largest metropolitan areas in the US. Indeed, Medium Jets generally can match their Large Cabin kin in terms of speed and, to a point, their range, while providing reasonable office amenities that are competitive with most larger aircraft. With all of the above considered, it is little wonder that the Medium Jet segment is the biggest selling, deepest segment across the business aircraft market.

Aircraft Performance & Specifications Medium Jets

T

he AvBuyer Magazine Guide to Aircraft Performance and Technical Specification Data is updated by Conklin & de Decker on a regular basis. The Guide is much more comprehensive and informative, providing more aircraft types and models and including variable cost numbers for all models.

This month’s category of aircraft - Medium Jets – appears opposite, to be followed by Entry-Level and Light Jets next month.

Please note that this data should be used as a guide only, and not as the basis on which buying decisions are taken. The data presents aircraft aged below 20 years of age only, but Conklin & de Decker provides details of older airplanes too.

If there are any other ways in which we can improve the content or presentation of this information, please let us know.

Tel: +44 (0) 20 8391 6770; Email: editorial@avbuyer.com. © 2011 Conklin & de Decker Associates, Inc., P.O. Box 1142, Orleans, Massachusetts, 02653, Tel. 508-255-5975, www.conklindd.com

Description of Cost Elements The following describes the content of each cost element used in The Aircraft Cost Evaluator. There are no sales taxes included in these costs.

VARIABLE COST PER HOUR Includes fuel, maintenance reserves for routine maintenance, engine/ propeller/APU reserves, and miscellaneous expenses.

Specifications - General CABIN DIMENSIONS Cabin Height, Width, and Length are based on a completed interior.

On “cabin-class” aircraft, the length is measured from the cockpit divider to the aft pressure bulkhead (or aft cabin bulkhead if unpressurized). For small cabin aircraft, the distance is from the cockpit firewall to the aft bulkhead.

Height and width are the maximum within that

76

AVBUYER MAGAZINE – October 2016

cabin space. Cabin Volume is the interior volume, with headliner in place, without chairs or other furnishings. Cabin Door Height and Width are the measurements of the main passenger cabin entry door.

BAGGAGE Internal baggage volume is the baggage volume that is accessible in flight by the passenger. This amount may vary with the interior layout. External baggage volume is the baggage volume not accessible in flight (nacelle lockers, etc.).

CREW SEATS/SEATS EXECUTIVE This is the typical crew and passenger seating commonly used on the aircraft. This is not the maximum certificated seats of the aircraft. These numbers may vary for different operations (Corporate, Commercial, EMS, etc.).

Weights: • Maximum Take-Off Weight and Maximum Landing Weight are specified during aircraft certification.

• Basic Operating Weight is the empty weight, typically equipped, plus unusable fuel and liquids, flight crew @ 200 pounds each and their supplies.

• Useable fuel is the useable fuel in gallons x 6.7 pounds per gallon (Jet fuel) or 6 pounds per gallon (AVGAS).

• Payload with Full Fuel is the useful load minus the useable fuel. The useful load is based on the maximum ramp weight minus the basic operating weight.

• Maximum Payload is the maximum zero fuel weight minus the basic operating weight.

Specifications Performance Range: • Range (4 Pax) - The maximum IFR range of the aircraft with four passenger seats occupied. This uses the NBAA IFR alternate fuel reserve calculation for a 200 N.Mi. alternate. This is used for jet and turboprop aircraft.

• Ferry Range - is the maximum IFR range of the aircraft with the maximum fuel on board and no passenger seats occupied.

This uses the NBAA IFR alternate fuel reserve calculation for a 200 N.Mi. alternate. This is used for jet and turboprop aircraft.

• VFR Range - Seats Full is the maximum www.AVBUYER.com

•

VFR range of the aircraft with all passenger seats occupied. This is used for all helicopters and piston fixed-wing aircraft.

VFR Ferry Range - is the maximum VFR range of the aircraft with the maximum fuel on board and no passenger seats occupied. This is used for all helicopters and piston fixed-wing aircraft.

Balanced Field Length BFL is the distance obtained by determining the decision speed (V1) at which the take-off distance and the accelerate-stop distance are equal (fixed-wing multi-engine aircraft only).

This is based on four passengers and maximum fuel on board (turbine aircraft). For single-engine and all piston fixed-wing aircraft, this distance represents the take-off field length at Maximum Take-off Weight (MTOW).

Landing Distance (Factored) For fixed-wing turbine aircraft, landing distance is computed using FAR 121 criteria. This takes the landing distance from 50/35 feet (depends on certification criteria) and multiplies that by a factor of 1.667. No credit is given for thrust reversers. Configuration is with four passengers and NBAA IFR Fuel Reserve on board. For fixed-wing piston aircraft, this figure is the landing distance over a 50 foot obstacle.

Rate of Climb (Ft/Min) The rate of climb, given in feet per minute, is for all engines operating, at MTOW, ISA conditions. One Engine Out rate of climb is for one engine inoperative rate of climb at MTOW, ISA. Cruise Speed (Knots True Air Speed - KTAS) Max Cruise Speed - is the maximum cruise speed at maximum continuous power. This may also be commonly referred to as High Speed Cruise. Normal cruise speed is the recommended cruise speed established by the manufacturer. This speed may also be the same as Maximum Cruise Speed. Long Range Cruise is the manufacturer’s recommended cruise speed for maximum range.

Engines The number of engines, manufacturer and model are shown.

H

ow do the Hawker 400XP and the Citation Ultra compare in the pre-owned market today? Over the following paragraphs, we’ll consider productivity parameters (payload, range, speed and cabin size) and cover current market values.

The Hawker 400XP replaced the Beechjet 400A starting with serial number RK-354, and entered operation in 2004. Production ended in 2010. The aircraft offers an increased gross weight and several standard

features that were optional on the Beechjet 400A. Today there are 217 wholly-owned Hawker 400XPs. With an additional eight in shared ownership and seven in fractional ownership, the total Hawker 400XP fleet numbers 232 in operation worldwide. 52 (22.4%) of the Hawker 400XP in-operation fleet are leased, according to JETNET. By continent, North America has the largest fleet percentage (70%), followed by South America (13%) and Asia (10%) for a combined total of 93%.

The data contained in Table B (left) are published in the B&CA, Online edition, but also sourced from Conklin & de Decker. As we have mentioned in past articles, a potential operator should focus on payload capability as a key factor. The Hawker 400XP ‘Available Payload with Maximum Fuel’ (603 lbs) is less than that offered by the Citation Ultra (779 lbs).

Additionally, Table B shows the fuel usage by each aircraft (sourced from Aircraft Cost Calculator). There is minimal difference in the fuel usage of the Hawker 400XP and the Citation Ultra at 200 versus 201 gallons per hour (GPH) respectively.

Cabin Cross-Sections

Chart A - Cabin Cross-Sections Beechcraft Hawker 400XP

Cessna Citation Ultra

According to Conklin & de Decker, the Hawker 400XP cabin volume is 305 cubic feet with 15.5 ft. cabin length. The Citation Ultra has slightly more cabin volume (310 cu. ft.) with 17.3 ft. length. Chart A (left), courtesy of UPCAST JETBOOK, offers a cabin cross-section comparison and shows the Hawker 400XP offers more width (4.92ft vs 4.83ft), but less height (4.75ft vs 4.80ft) than the Citation Ultra. However, the Hawker 400XP offers a flat floor cabin.

Range Comparison

As depicted by Chart B (top, right) and using Wichita, Kansas, as the origin point the Hawker 400XP shows slightly less range coverage than the Citation Ultra, per data from Aircraft Cost Calculator (ACC).

Powerplant Details

The Hawker 400XP is powered by two Pratt & Whitney Canada JT15D-5R engines each offering 2,965 lbst. The Citation Ultra is powered by two Pratt & Whitney Canada JT15D-5D engines with 3,045 lbst.

Cost Per Mile

Using data published in the May 2016 B&CA Planning and Purchasing Handbook and the August 2016 B&CA Operations Planning Guide we will compare our aircraft. The nationwide average Jet A fuel cost used from the August 2016 edition was $4.90 per gallon at press time, so for the sake of comparison we’ll chart the numbers as published.

Note: Fuel price used from this source does not represent an average price for the year.

Chart C (right) details ‘Cost per Mile’ and compares the Hawker 400XP to its competition, factoring direct costs and with each aircraft flying a 1,000nm mission with an 800 pound (four passengers) payload. The Hawker 400XP shows the lowest cost per nautical mile at $2.98 compared to $3.83 for the Citation Ultra - a difference of 22.2% cost per nautical mile in favor of the Hawker 400XP.

aircraft in-operation and percentage ‘For Sale’ are as reported by JETNET. The Hawker 400XP has 10.8% of its fleet currently ‘For Sale’ and the Citation Ultra at 10.9% ‘For Sale’. Also, the average number of pre-owned transactions (sold) per month for

the Hawker 400XP is much lower, at 1 unit per month, than Citation Ultra at 3 per month.

Depreciation Schedule

Aircraft that are owned and operated by businesses are often depreciable for income tax purposes under the Modified

www.AVBUYER.com

Accelerated Cost Recovery System (MACRS). Under MACRS, taxpayers are allowed to accelerate the depreciation of assets by taking a greater percentage of the deductions during the first few years of the applicable recovery period (see Table D, above center).

In certain cases, aircraft may not qualify under the MACRS system and must be depreciated under the less favorable Alternative Depreciation System (ADS) where depreciation is based on a straight-line method, meaning that equal deductions are taken during each year of the applicable recovery period.

In most cases, recovery periods under ADS are longer than recovery periods available under MACRS. There are a variety of factors that taxpayers must consider in determining if an aircraft may be depreciated, and if so, the correct depreciation method and recovery period that should be utilized. For example, aircraft used in charter service (i.e. Part 135) are normally depreciated under MACRS over a seven-year recovery period or under ADS using a twelve-year recovery period.

Aircraft used for qualified business purposes, such as Part 91 business use flights, are generally depreciated under MACRS over a period of five years or by using ADS with a sixyear recovery period. There are certain uses of the aircraft, such as non-business flights, that may have an impact on the allowable depreciation deduction available in a given year.

Table E (bottom, left) depicts an example of using the MACRS schedule for a 2010 Hawker 400XP business aircraft in private (Part 91) and charter (Part 135) operations over five- and sevenyear periods, assuming a preowned retail value of $2.4m, per Vref Pricing guide.

The points in Chart F (right) are centered on the same aircraft.

Pricing used in the vertical axis is as published in the Vref Pricing Guide. The productivity index requires further discussion in that the factors used can be somewhat arbitrary. Productivity can be defined (and it is here) as the multiple of three factors:

pre-owned Hawker 400XP. The current pre-owned market for the Hawker 400XP aircraft shows a total of 25 aircraft ‘For Sale’ with only 13 displaying an asking price, thus we have plotted them.

We also added the pre-owned Citation Ultra with asking prices.

The equation that we derived from these asking prices and other criteria used should enable sellers and buyers to compare, and perhaps adjust their offerings, if necessary.

While each serial number is unique, the Airframe (AFTT) hours and age/condition will cause great variations in price.

Our research suggests that the market for used Hawker 400XPs and Citation Ultras respond to at least two features: Quantity and Asking Prices.

Of course, the final negotiated price remains to be decided between the seller and buyer before the sale of an aircraft is completed.

Others may choose different parameters, but serious business aircraft buyers are usually impressed with Price, Range, Speed and Cabin Size. After consideration of the Price, Range, Speed and Cabin Size, we can conclude that the Hawker 400XP displays a high level of productivity.

The high level of productivity is largely due to the fact that the Hawker 400XP offers a considerably lower cost per mile and lower variable cost compared to the Citation Ultra

but at a higher price (2010 vs 1999). The Hawker 400XP is also faster, while both aircraft are similar in many of our other comparisons, with the Ultra holding the edge in Maximum Payload with Full Fuel, Range and Cabin Volume.

Operators should weigh up their mission requirements precisely when picking which option is the best for them.

Summary

Within the preceding paragraphs we have touched upon several of

the attributes that business aircraft operators value. There are other qualities such as airport performance, terminal area performance, and time to climb that might factor in a buying decision, however.

The Hawker 400XP continues to be somewhat popular today.

Those operators in the market should find the preceding comparison useful. Our expectations are that the Hawker 400XP may continue to do well in the pre-owned market for the foreseeable future. T

Business Aircraft: They’re Not Just for Mahogany Row

Yves Roch, Chief Executive of Lausanne-based Fly 7 Executive Aviation, is putting his Pilatus PC-12 to good use providing quick, efficient links throughout Europe – and not only for those who you’d think can afford it. Rani Singh discovers more… oasting a fleet of 13 business aircraft, ten of Fly 7’s aircraft are in fact Pilatus PC-12s.

“Flying privately in a PC-12 increases the number of feasible airports in Europe to 2,000 destinations, because we can land on small runways.

“We find that our corporate clients appreciate the discretion that smaller airports can offer. Moreover, reduced security controls means less time spent waiting, thus they enjoy a considerable gain of time; more time to be productive in their business activities. It is easy to understand why this is an attractive travel alternative for local business men, such as bankers, who wish to retain a low-profie.”

So why is the PC-12 such an instrumental aircraft to Fly 7’s operations? “Being based in Lausanne we offer our clients a very good alternative to flying from Geneva,” Roch explains. “With the PC-12 - the largest aircraft that can land at Lausanne - we can compete with Light jets whilst also accessing other small, local runaways such as Saanen Airport that would otherwise not be accessible to our passengers.

“Our customers are flying a lot from St. Tropez or Courchevel and the PC-12 enables us to respond to Advertising Enquiries see Page 4

note, Roch does offer the example of how the local watchmakers benefit greatly from the use of the PC-12.

“The famous Swiss watchmakers are mostly based in a region called La Chaux-de-Fonds, a small town that is a fair distance from the main hubs of Geneva, Basel or Zurich,” Roch explains.

“La Chaux-de-Fonds has a good, but small airport. There’s only one aircraft that can fly commercially out of this airport – namely our PC-12.

So we are flying a lot from La Chaux-de-Fonds to Paris, or other destinations to enable the watchmakers to get their business done further afield in a single day. We are also able to bring clients directly to the factory doorsteps.”

Roch feels that the PC-12 is essentially a niche market. “It’s marketed as an aircraft with a big cabin and an interior capacity that no other small business aircraft can provide. Fly 7 is one of only a few players in the market utilizing a PC-12 for charter.”

Business Aviation for All

Yves is well aware that Business Aviation has an unjustified reputation for being a luxury market, but he is keen to point out a new venutre, Fly Me Home, in which the less prosperous are able to benefit from the services of the company’s PC-12s.

AVBUYER MAGAZINE – October 2016

“We also conduct medical flights for a local hospital,” he explains.

“We reduce ambulance costs by coming much closer to the hospital. The flights are partially funded by the hospital, but are mainly funded by our generous donors.

“We are also having flight hours donated by the owners of the aircraft in our fleet, to bring terminally ill patients back to their families and loved ones. Full medical assistance is not always necessary to do that kind of flight – but thanks to Fly Me Home we can offer those patients the opportunity to spend their last moments in the place they love, with the people they love.”

In Summary

According to Roch, Fly 7 is getting an increasing number of requests for its Fly Me Home service.

“We have already made four trips, and believe me; it is an amazing feeling when you see the relief on the patient’s face to finally be where their heart is!

“For people who may not have the money to fund a trip in a private aircraft but have the need, to be able to benefit from the convenience of Business Aviation is just great news!” T More information from http://www.fly7.ch/

Keeping BizAv Relevant to Others

Why Message Management & Delivery are Important in Business Aviation Focus and brevity are essential elements in presenting a winning argument for Business Aviation, notes David Wyndham. successful communicator and author once stated, “I know that you believe you understand what you think I said, but I'm not sure you realize that what you heard is not what I meant." While amusing, this statement reflects the challenges that decision makers and managers face when conveying ideas or proposing actions to be taken.

From the boardroom to the cockpit to the living room, effective communication is critical for our survival. A diverse Board of Directors can consist of leaders from various disciplines. Directors with a financial background can sit next to engineers, doctors, marketing pros, and experts from many other disciplines. While participants all speak business, their individual backgrounds and experiences can cloud their perception of what they hear.

In cockpit communications, pilots must speak clearly and concisely so that any pilot or controller can understand what is said. "Taxi to Runway 18" is not clearance to taxi “onto runway 18.” Even at home, "Does this dress look good on me?" can lead to serious miscommunication (by the way, the correct answer is that YOU make the dress look awesome).

The Big Five

There are five parts to communication, including: Sender; Message; Medium; Receiver; and Feedback.

Let’s look at ways to help get your message across.

As the sender, organize your thoughts to be clear and direct. What do you need to convey? How short can you state that need? Can something written in three pages be reduced to three paragraphs? Can that be restated in three sentences, or even one?

What is the most desired result or action based on what you say?

In general, keep your message short. US President Lincoln's iconic Gettysburg Address was only 268 words long. In 1863, when he was dedicating the cemetery at the site of a momentous Civil War battle, the public was used to oratories lasting hours. Lincoln’s address was the equivalent of a Twitter message in its day. Brevity is using just enough words to convey the point.

In February 2015, Satya Nadella took the reigns as Microsoft’s CEO. His first communication to his employees was critical to starting off in the right direction. In this one sentence— “The opportunity ahead will require us to reimagine a lot of what we have done in the past for a mobile and cloud-first Aircraft Index see Page 143

world, and do new things.”— Nadella defined Microsoft’s new direction.

Nadella made it clear to all employees that Microsoft’s success would be based on a mobile-first strategy. To succeed, new things had to be created and done differently than in the past. He wanted Microsoft to know that its best days were yet to come and that he had a strategy to achieve that Vision.

Medium and Message

Some experts in communications like to say that the medium is the message, which may or may not be correct depending on circumstances. It is clear, however, that how you choose to communicate is very important. Carefully select your medium, be it verbal or written, and tailor your delivery to work within that medium.

Face-to-face often is the most effective, but in today’s era of electronic messaging and highly dispersed locations for key personnel, knowing how to deliver a compelling message electronically is essential. Know your target audience and keep your message focused on that target.

With regard to an aircraft selection, for example, make sure your acquisition team keep things pointed in the right direction, which is getting an aircraft to support the goals of the company. For the Board or the employees, make sure that everyone is able to connect the aircraft with the corporate mission.

For example, I did an aircraft justification study for a company in financial difficulty. Corporate Headquarters was in a rural area. Operations were spread over half of the US. They had a light business jet. That jet was a critical tool that enabled the CEO and his team to visit their

AVBUYER MAGAZINE – October 2016

www.AVBUYER.com

operating locations on a regular basis. Face-to-face communication with the company managers was essential. No jet, and the CEO’s work (and the company) suffers. But many employees still saw the CEO getting into the jet as a perk.

Part of the perception problem was that the Aviation Department was at the airport and rarely seen downtown. Thus the message needed to focus on how a business aircraft increased the effectiveness of the executive team and therefore benefitted the entire company. The audience for that message included employees as well as shareholders.

Receiving a Clear Message

Professionals use a lot of insider language or jargon. Abbreviations and jargon can shorten sentences but can also cause confusion. Thus it is essential to know who will receive the message being delivered.

As long as we stay within our discipline, communication can be effective most of the time, but when the pilot, the executive, the lawyer and the CFO sit down to discuss Business Aviation, things can easily be misunderstood or worse. Know your audience and avoid verbal shortcuts that risk misinterpretation.

Business aircraft are important tools that enable face-to-face interactions. When communicating the need for the aircraft and the missions it will achieve, have the message crafted for your audience and get the feedback that demonstrates they understand the value of Business Aviation.

Lost Aircraft Logbooks

What’s the Impact on Aircraft Value?

Jeremy Cox, Sr. Certified Aircraft Appraiser, makes the unambiguous case for maintaining aircraft logs in proper order.

T

he FAA advises all aircraft owners that they are legally required to keep and maintain all of the following records pertaining to an aircraft and its key components (see FAR 91.405/91.417/AC43-9): • • • • • • • • • •

Records of maintenance; Records of alterations; Copies of all FAA Form 337 issued against the aircraft; Records of required or approved inspections; Current inspection status; List of unairworthy discrepancies; Current Airworthiness Directives compliance status; Records of total time-in service; Records of time since overhaul; Status of life-limited parts.

Such records are only required to be retained until the work is repeated, superseded by other work or 98

AVBUYER MAGAZINE – October 2016

for one year (except for altimeter and transponder checks, which are to be retained for two years).

Operationally, the FAA also requires that the following documentation be aboard the aircraft at all times: • • • • •

Airworthiness certificate; Registration certificate; Radio station license (international operations only); Operating limitations (AFM, or POH); Weight & balance documents.

Have you ever heard the term ‘Provenance’? It is used extensively by the major auction houses like Sotheby’s and Christies, and its definition according to Merriam-Webster is: 1. Origin, Source; 2. the history of ownership of a valued object, or work of art or literature.

Another relevant term is ‘Pedigree’. This is particularly popular amongst horse breeders, but I often hear it used when talking about an aircraft.

www.AVBUYER.com

Aircraft Index see Page 143

Buying & Selling Oct 16.qxp_Layout 1 20/09/2016 09:23 Page 2

any, FAA Form 337s issued for the aircraft. All FAA 8130 airworthiness tags, all work order packages, invoices, manuals, and logbooks should be complete, concise, and stored, ready to be included with the aircraft at the time of sale to a new owner.

2. Establishing and Maintaining Pedigree

Again Merriam-Webster defines it as follows: 1. The history of the family members in a person’s, or animal’s past, especially when it is good or impressive; 2. The origin and history of something, especially when it is good or impressive.’

The history of an aircraft is documented in its log books. Probably every reader will agree that an aircraft is a ‘valued object.’ To elevate a specific aircraft to being an example with ‘pedigree,’ its ‘history’ has to be ‘good’ or impressive (preferably both). How can ‘pedigree’ occur in an aircraft?

Consider the two following responses to that question…

1. Achieving ‘Good’ History

The aircraft can’t have any damage history. The aircraft must be maintained by following the recommended Factory Maintenance Program, achieved either by an OEM service center or by a well-known and reputable MRO that is a certified repair station.

All mandatory and preferably all recommended Service Bulletins must be accomplished, and the interior is fire-blocked. No items should be installed under a field approval, and no insurance claims be made against the aircraft. There should be few, if Advertising Enquiries see Page 4

Pedigree is not quite as conclusive as ‘Good’ History, because the issue is subjective to different people, each of whom brings with them varying points of view. The classic expectation of Pedigree is usually achieved when an aircraft is ‘one owner since new’ and the owner is a Fortune 500 or similarlyrated company.

The aircraft will have been operated and maintained exclusively under cfr 14, FAR Part 91 privately (or its equivalent outside of the USA), and lastly its total-time and landings will reflect the standard 400 to 500 hours per annum use. Highertime/cycle aircraft have a perceived diminished pedigree even though they meet all of the other requirements.

The aircraft will have at least an ‘8’ rating for both paint and interior. Some people consider that an aircraft that is certified and operated under cfr 14, FAR Part 135 conversely has a higher pedigree than one flown exclusively under FAR Part 91. I can see this point of view, but I do not agree with it.

The opposite of good pedigree, by most people’s expectations (mine included), is one that has had more than three previous owners, flies charter regularly, has high-time, has a ratty interior and exterior paint, and has obviously been “used hard, and put away wet”.

Regardless of where an aircraft fits in the spectrum of Good History and Pedigree, it still garners a certain book and market value. Pedigree, etc. will elevate the desirability of the applicable aircraft, along with its matching higher value. A ‘dog’ aircraft still rates a US Dollar value, even though that value will be lower and ‘days on market’ considerably longer than an aircraft with good pedigree.

Lost or Missing Log Books/Records

Consider the following sad story: A maintenance office containing the records of multiple aircraft, burnt to the ground. This single event affected the value of more than ten large turbine business aircraft.

I handled the sale of one of the affected aircraft years later, and I remember how some of the logbooks were literally photocopies of burnt and charred pages – some only 25% of their original size, i.e. 75% of the page was burnt away!

Determining value of the aircraft affected was difficult.

Always accomplish the following actions: 1. Store all of your Log Books and Archive Records in a fireproof, waterproof and lockable filing cabinet/safe. www.AVBUYER.com

2.

Perform a digital scan or digital image of every page of your archive records, and use the same protocol for all existing and future records. Often this digital backup creates a significantly useful tool for the in-house Director of Maintenance, because if ‘optical character recognition’ (OCR) works with your chosen archival database system, the entire history of the aircraft will be searchable digitally. This feature is amazingly useful, especially during a pre-buy inspection.

The FAA recognizes that the use of ‘wood-pulppaper’ records are quickly becoming obsolescent, and in 2002 it issued Advisory Circular No. 120-78, titled: Acceptance and use of electronic signatures, electronic recordkeeping systems, and electronic manuals.

Electronic records do not guarantee that all prospective buyers will be satisfied with the aircraft’s pedigree.

There will always be a perception issue, where a percentage of aircraft buyers only consider the purchase of an aircraft that has physical paper records by the box-load, instead of a simple thumbdrive or link to a data storage cloud.

Bottom Line

So, how much value will be lost if an Appraiser can’t read your entire modification, maintenance and repair history? The Aircraft Bluebook Price Digest publishes in its ‘User’s Handbook’ the following advice regarding the value impact of ‘missing log books’: Electronic records do not guarantee that all prospective buyers will be satisfied with the aircraft’s pedigree.

“The fact that an aircraft does not have original or complete log books diminishes its value. The reason for missing log books could well be innocent and out of the owner’s control – theft or destruction by fire,

AVBUYER MAGAZINE – October 2016

www.AVBUYER.com

for example – but the result is the same. Missing log books mean that the aircraft’s history is no longer available for scrutiny. If an aircraft has damage in its history or has had lapses in maintenance, destruction of that airplane’s log books would be a convenient way to hide these facts.

“If an aircraft has been maintained by one facility or mechanic, the log books could be reconstructed, and doing so minimizes the impact of missing log books.

“The question remains: how much to deduct for missing log books. Research indicates that missing log books could diminish the value of an aircraft by as little as 10% or as much as 25%.”

The National Aircraft Appraisers Association offers the following Guide Note information: “Beginning immediately, when dealing with lost log books an NAAA member should use twice the major damage deduction on piston engine airplanes as the average reduction in value. From there the member will evaluate the situation regarding that particular aircraft and decide whether a higher or lower reduction is warranted.

“If an aircraft has no log books not only will the reduction be twice the major damage deduction but the appraiser may choose to make it higher based on the individual situation. In addition, the engine will be run out, the propeller will be run out, and an estimate for complying with all AD notes will be made. It may also be necessary to estimate the cost of complying with other airworthiness issues such as an annual inspection…

“For turbine aircraft continue to use the same methods and values you have been using. The damage deductions for turbine aircraft are significant.”

When I run the damage deduction numbers through the NAAA proprietary software, twice the Major Damage Deduction usually results in a 30% reduction in the base value of a ‘Missing logbook aircraft’. T Aircraft Index see Page 143

Improving on Your War Risk Coverage Insurance Coverage for War Risks, Hijacking & Other Allied Perils Stuart Hope dissects War Risk insurance and explains how to make it watertight. very aviation insurance hull and liability policy contains a blanket exclusion for all War Risk perils. Prior to the events of 9/11, coverage for War Risk perils was commonly purchased for a small additional premium since the perceived risk of a loss caused by any of the war perils was considered minimal.

The world changed after 9/11. For those who owned aircraft at that time, you will recall the War Risk underwriters exercised their contractual option to cancel all coverage [War Risk perils only, not the entire insurance policy]. That action wreaked absolute havoc in the aviation insurance world.

Several weeks following the terrorist attacks, insurance carriers re-evaluated the exposure, rerated the coverage and again offered War Risk coverage - but at premiums exponentially higher than previously charged. Most owners had no option but to purchase the coverage as lienholders required it as part of the insurance conditions

contained in their loan agreements.

There is a separate insurance market that sells coverage for War Risk perils. In effect you have a policy within a policy. When you purchase coverage for War Risk perils you are removing all but one war risk exclusion. Most folks don’t realize how many perils are excluded, so here they are: 1.

3.

War, invasion, acts of foreign enemies, hostilities (whether war be declared or not), civil war, rebellion, revolution, insurrection, martial law, military or usurped power or attempts at usurpation of power.

Any hostile detonation of any weapon of war employing atomic or nuclear fission and/or fusion or other like reaction or radioactive force or matter (this coverage is simply not available at any premium).

Strikes, riots, civil commotions or labor disturbances.

Uncovered

Depending on how you count them, that’s roughly 25 perils. Which exclusion do you think is the one war underwriters will not remove?

If you guessed War Risk number 2, you would be correct. Nuclear is considered uninsurable. There is debate in the industry as to whether the Nuclear peril might be covered under the Terrorism Risk Insurance Program Reauthorization Act [commonly known as TRIA] since the coverage trigger is controlled by three individuals of the US Government who declare an event a terrorist act.

Once this group certifies the circumstances as meeting the definition of a terrorist act under the Program, the TRIA coverage should be activated.

If true, purchase of the TRIA coverage is much more important to consider.

AVBUYER MAGAZINE – October 2016

www.AVBUYER.com

Insurance companies remain undecided on this issue. In order to hedge the bet, in my opinion the smart money is on purchasing TRIA coverage, which in effect provides protection for only one event—terrorism as defined by the US Government in its TRIA Act. Consider a dirty bomb attack on an airport facility where aircraft are contaminated and the event is certified as a terrorist act under TRIA. While definitely not covered under the War Risk Perils insurance [nuclear exclusion], I cannot imagine the US government would allow insurance companies to make the argument that nuclear is not covered under the TRIA act and therefore not pay.

While not a conventional insurance contract, TRIA improves coverage for the Terrorism peril including a broad coverage trigger, more favorable cancellation provisions and removal of the aggregate limit.

In any event, the take-away is this: Purchase of coverage for War Risk Perils is a no brainer. For a small additional premium, you remove 25 perils that were previously excluded but now are covered. For our corporate aircraft clients, we don’t offer War Risk coverage as an option. It is included as part of their coverage—period, end of story. As discussed in a prior article, you should also consider purchase of per-occurrence war and TRIA coverage.

Citation Longitude Ground Tests

BizAv Bites Bombardier is planning a series of temporary “pauses” of Global 5000 and 6000 completions in Montreal as it continues to manage costs, the Canadian aircraft manufacturer confirmed to AIN recently. The pauses “are really minor adjustments on a small scale,” according to a spokesman, who emphasized that the company will honor customer commitments. www.aero.bombardier.com BOMBARDIER

Progress Continues as Cessna Fires Up Longitude Engines…

Cessna has taken the next step toward first flight of the

Citation Longitude, completing the initial ground engine tests on the Super-Mid-Size jet’s Honeywell HTF7700L turbofans.

he ground engine tests are designed to verify engine start, fuel system and autothrottle functions, along with avionics, electrical and hydraulic system interfaces. Having successfully mated the wing and fuselage of the first Longitude in May, just six months after unveiling details of the aircraft, it continues to make steady progress.

The Longitude is the company’s latest innovation as Textron Aviation continues to invest in its family of larger business jets.

The aircraft is designed specifically for maximum passenger comfort. State-of-theart cabin technology will allow passengers to manage their environment and entertainment from any mobile device, while standard high-speed internet maximizes in-flight productivity. With seating for up to

T

12 passengers, the Longitude features a stand-up, flat-floor cabin with a standard double-club configuration and a class leading walk-in baggage compartment fully accessible in flight.

The clean-sheet Longitude integrates the latest technology throughout the aircraft, and features the next evolution of the Garmin G5000 flight deck. The aircraft is expected to offer a full fuel payload of 1,500 lbs, a maximum cruise speed of 476kts and a high-speed range of 3,400nm. With optional head-up display and enhanced vision capability, the Longitude facilitates eyes-up flying.

Meanwhile, the spacious cockpit will incorporate easier access and an ergonomic design that fully focuses on crew comfort and efficiency. www.cessna.txtav.com

Embraer Executive Jets has introduced an auto-racing-inspired enhancement package of interior refurbishment options and exterior paint schemes for current Phenom 100 owners. Dubbed Phenom Ace as a nod to the racing theme, the upgrade aims to “bring a new life to the aircraft” while appealing to owners’ “passion for performance,” said company vice president of interior design Jay Beever. www.embraerexecutivejets.com Leonardo-Finmeccanica announced that the first flying tilt-rotor AW609 prototype flew to the company’s Philadelphia plant following a recent resumption of flight testing.

PIPER

Increased Situational and Operational Awareness Gulfstream has developed the first phase of its intuitive Performance iPad app to help Gulfstream operators streamline their flight operations…

A

companion to Gulfstream’s PlaneBook electronic suite of flight crew information, the Performance iPad app enables a Gulfstream G650 or G650ER flight crew to quickly calculate precise performance data for the take-off and landing phases of flight, replacing paper charts and manual calculations.

The results are displayed in simple, easy-to-understand graphics, reducing the flight crew’s preparation time and workload and increasing their situational and operational awareness.

The Gulfstream Performance app uses a model-specific weight-and-balance file validated by Gulfstream Flight Operations,

allowing operators to quickly determine their take-off and landing weights after inputting the number of passengers along with cargo and fuel load. The app includes real-time airport data, while app users can automatically receive real-time weather data when there is an internet connection.

Additional models for the app are planned, and future enhancements will include cruise and mission planning along with a stand-alone weight and balance computation ability. The Gulfstream Performance app is available from the Apple App Store for all G650/G650ER PlaneBook users.

Piper’s M500 has received European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) approval, allowing Piper to kick off a major sales campaign to bring the M500 to the European market, according to Piper President and CEO Simon Caldecott. Formerly known as the Meridian, the five-place aircraft has Garmin G1000 avionics with an Aspen EFD-1000 standby indicator and other features such as electronic stability protection and synthetic vision. www.piper.com Textron Aviation will move production of the Cessna Caravan to its Independence, Kansas, facility to make room for production of its newest business aircraft at its Wichita factory. The shift isn’t expected to affect employees’ jobs, but will make room in Wichita for production of the Citation Longitude, expected to enter service late next year, and the Denali turboprop. www.txtav.com T TEXTRON

PRODUCTS & SERVICES Blackhawk Modifications Texas-based Blackhawk Modifications is working on FAA STC approval for a Beechcraft King Air 350 engine upgrade that replaces the original 1,050-shp Pratt & Whitney Canada PT6A60A engines with 1,200-shp (flat-rated to 1,050 shp) PT6A67As. The engines and new, five-blade composite propellers from MT were recently installed on the company’s King Air 350 test bed and, according to Blackhawk, initial performance has been “promising.”

In hot conditions, the company has seen climb rate more than double from sea level to the FL350 service ceiling, reducing time-to-climb to 18 minutes. Cruise speeds have also increased by as much as 37 knots, up to a maximum of 340 knots at engine power limits. The STC will include a new flight manual supplement with full performance specifications for flight-planning purposes.

The company expects the initial certification to cover all Rockwell Collins Pro Line II equipped 350s with analog engine instruments, and it is working with Garmin on G1000 compatibility on the initial STC. A separate STC is intended for King Air 350s equipped with the Pro Line 21 avionics suite.

Blackhawk said the Hartzell 105-inch-diameter five-blade composite propeller will be available as an option, while Raisbeck Engineering is working to upgrade its newly certified Hartzell swept, four-blade aluminum propeller assembly to be compatible with the PT6A-67A installation. www.blackhawk.aero

PRODUCTS & SERVICES GARMIN Garmin International Inc. announced recently that it was breaking ground on a $200 million dollar facility expansion at its Olathe, Kansas campus. The campus expansion is designed to position the technology company as a leading innovator well into the future.

The implementation of the company’s previously approved master plan will occur in two phases. The first phase includes an approximately 720,000 square foot manufacturing and distribution center located on its Olathe campus, which will take two years to complete. A large portion of this new development will significantly expand manufacturing for the company’s aviation business segment, providing the capacity needed to serve aircraft manufacturers and aircraft owners for decades to come.

The second phase of the expansion will include the renovation of the existing Garmin warehouse and manufacturing space into a state-of-the-art research and development facility and supporting office space. This phase is expected to take an additional two years to finish, with the full project nearing completion in late 2020.

In other news, Garmin’s G5000 integrated flight deck has achieved STC approval for retrofit in the Beechjet 400A and Hawker 400XP. The avionics suite features two touch-screen controllers and three 12-screen displays capable of displaying as many as six independent pages simultaneously in the landscape orientation.

Tri-Jets have earned a stellar reputation among owners and operators and usually command higher resale values than the competition.

With efficient space management the Falcon 900 aircraft have a larger passenger seating area than the Gulfstream IV. These Tri-Jets weigh 15 tons less and are 22 feet shorter, providing a more beneficial ramp presence.

The 900EX can speed across the Atlantic with all seats full at 0.84 IMN; and has 300 NM greater range than the Gulfstream IV-SP. Furthermore, the 900EX can fly from London to Kansas City, Buenos Aires to New Orleans and Anchorage to Seoul at 0.75 IMN with eight passengers and NBAA IFR reserves.

The Falcon 900LX pictured above is considerably more capable than the Falcon 900EX. Revolutionary and the world's first purpose built fly-by-wire (FBW) business jet, the Falcon 7X capitalizes on Mach 2 technology.

AVAILABLE: FALCON 900B
