PRE-OWNED FALCON
WE BUILT THESE PLANES, WE TRACKED THEIR LIVES, WE KNOW THEM BEST. No one knows a pre-owned Falcon like we do. No one knows more about its past. Because we record the details of every Falcon’s history in our databases. And no one cares more about helping you get the best out of it. Because wherever you fly your pre-owned Falcon, our reputation flies with you.

THE AVIATION LEADERSHIP ROUNDTABLE
The Importance Of Trust In Testing Times. ou cannot just say, “Trust Me” to a new contact and expect them to do so. Trust can only be built between people over time. It occurs in all of the best relationships: between spouses; between partners; between people doing business together. At no time has trust been more critical between buyers, sellers and their aviation sales professional than it is today. Down markets, especially one as dramatic as today’s, demands trust between all participants. I can remember at the beginning of this downturn in 2008, as I tried to make some sense of the catastrophic set of events. These were shocking to all of the industry. Nothing was selling - at all, and trying to explain to sellers that the market they had just known with skyrocketing prices was now coming to an end and wouldn’t be returning soon, if ever was difficult. The idea of premiums and short supply of aircraft had evaporated, and selling airplanes for more than you paid may never again be a reality. The truth today is that aircraft are declining assets, as with any other mechanical piece of equipment. Use wears it out and reduces the life of the individual components, so annual residual value loss is a reality. Back to 2008, post downturn, my desire was to help sellers find buyers, which felt like finding a needle in a haystack. No one had any idea where the bottom might be, when the bottom might occur and what other significant events would drop for our overall global economy - not to mention the individual buyer or seller. It was a perfect storm for an industry calamity. Back then, I tried to encourage sellers to lower their expectations as well as their asking prices. Without fail each would question, are there buyers? The honest answer in 2008 was, “I am not sure, but yesterday’s prices will not work for today’s buyers”. That argument fell on deaf ears. Sellers still held on to the hope that prices would rebound soon, thus lowering their price might be a terrible way to find the buyer. Buyers had the same fear. Why buy now if

The essence of trust in a broker/client relationship will dispel any fear of a buyer being falsely led into the wrong deal. prices will continue to drop and no end is in sight? This began what has continued to be a price-driven marketplace. No matter the return to a more robust transaction environment, price still drives the market for the time being. Never before has the value of ‘Trust’ been so important to the process. In order for an aircraft to be viewed by buyers today, they must trust the aircraft sales professional to gather the data points from transactions and active aircraft listings and build for the seller a compelling argument of proper pricing. This is more complicated today because there are fewer transactions than in past years to draw conclusions from. It takes a daily participation by the sales professional in the market to glean the gems to build the argument. Trust is the key to this process – and it is equally critical to the buyer. The aircraft sales professional must be able to quote ‘chapter and verse’ as to why a buyer should come back into this market and buy now. This discussion should center on the value of the business aircraft to the buyer and the company. Yes prices may incrementally go down for a period of time, but the prices have never been lower and waiting could just mean that the best aircraft get sold and you pay less for a far less compliant aircraft. It is tricky, and trust between players is vital. The essence of trust in a broker/client relationship will dispel any fear of a buyer being falsely led into the wrong deal. It may be easier sometimes to believe a well-crafted story rather than the facts. Buyers and sellers must

be satisfied with the argument to buy or sell and be surrounded by a group of advisors that they trust. One can be sold on a product or service based on false data. If you are uncertain about the path an advisor is taking you down, listen more closely to more people. The sky is not falling and the world is not yet so rosy. Brighter days will occur and prices of aircraft will eventually firm up. If, however, someone tells you today that you should raise your asking price because things seem to be getting better, you would be making a bad error of judgment to follow such advice. I have seen too many sellers go with brokers who promised higher sales prices than should be expected. Between the time that the seller is on the market on the basis of bad data and the point they finally realize the mistake in pricing the market potentially will have contracted, and precious time and ground is lost. As a buyer, if the time is right for you to buy based on your personal or business needs, great sellers are there. Though this is a price driven market, the goal of the buyer is not to just buy a cheap airplane – due diligence, as always, is essential. ❯ Jay Mesinger is the CEO and Founder of J.

AIREPORT
Equating The Value Of Bizav by David Wyndham hile the majority of the Fortune 500 companies engage in Business Aviation, their reasons for having access to business aircraft may not coincide with those of your own company. If a new CEO took over tomorrow, could you answer, “How does this company justify the use of business aircraft?” A rational, well-constructed justification for employing Business Aviation is no longer optional. It is a necessity. It should be clear to everyone in your company, not just the flight department and the senior executives, why your company uses Business Aviation. You must be prepared to state, “Yes, our aircraft is an essential business tool without which our company would be at a competitive disadvantage in today's rapidly changing economic environment,” and defend this position. There are many tangible benefits to having an aircraft. These include, but are not limited to:
W
• • • • •
Time savings; Flexibility and reliability of operations; Productivity; Ability to attract and retain key personnel; Ability to support customers in an effective manner.
Which of these apply to your company? Can you bring evidence to answer, “Are the benefits worth the cost?” That the business aircraft saves time is obvious to us in Business Aviation. Can you document and support this for your company? The National Business Aviation Association (NBAA) has a tool called Travel$ense. It is software that calculates the actual hours spent in travel, productivity advantages and trip expenses. Travel$Sense uses actual Airline
data to allow your travel specialist to compare the time it takes the business aircraft to complete your trip and the time needed on the Airline. In addition to calculating the total travel time, it also has user-defined inputs for productivity and salary. By using such a tool, you may calculate that a particular trip takes 40 hours’ roundtrip on the Airlines while the business jet takes just 16 hours. But the next step is the critical one: determining the value of that time. Time can never be saved. It can only be spent wisely.
Time can never be saved. It can only be spent wisely. You need to recognize that time spent not traveling, but being productive, is valuable. In 1987 a company called PRC produced a study that looked at the benefits of business aircraft travel versus the Airlines. It looked at both the tangible and intangible benefits. It then went a step further to try and assign a value (or cost) of the time spent (or not spent). It used business school research, industry data and insurance data to assign a salary multiplier to an executive's time. The PRC study was further reinforced in 2001 by a similar study performed by Andersen Consulting that looked at the impact of Business Aviation on shareholder value.
While an executive is worth more than his or her salary, whether that value to a company is two times or five times greater is a subject of much discussion and controversy. A senior executive with a seven-figure salary and benefits package has to be worth at least $500 per business hour to the firm. Business hours spent in the office, with a client, or working somewhere quietly without disruption are more productive than business hours spent waiting at the airport. Whether you use Travel$ense or a spreadsheet, such an analysis can show that the time spent not traveling can be put to productive use and that increased productivity can offset the added cost of using the business aircraft option. Have you done this for your use of the business aircraft? If not, you should do. ❯ David Wyndham is an owner of Conklin & de Decker.

VIEWPOINT
No Future Fears by Gil Wolin ncertainty – aye, there’s the rub… Uncertainty, about what to expect – and what to plan for. What’s the economy going to do in the next few years? How will the regulatory environment change? And how will aircraft owners, users, OEMs, and service providers respond? More importantly, how will we grow the industry, and introduce the next generation to business jet travel? The first week in June provided the opportunity to address both uncertainties: for the near term, via the third annual JETNET iQ Summit in New York City; and for introducing the next generation to aviation, via the NBAA Regional Forum and static display at Westchester County Airport. The former was a lively assemblage of economists and demographic experts, as well as aviation industry professionals and pundits holding forth on what the short- and longterm hold for us as an industry and as citizens of an increasingly interconnected – and interdependent – world. The latter was the second such gathering, and the hangar and temporary ramp tent at Panorama was jam-packed with booths and displays – and a static display chock-a-block with business aircraft buffed and polished to a fare-thee-well. I couldn’t resist this opportunity to introduce the beauty and comfort of aviation to the next generation. I offered to escort my six-year-old niece Emily (and her parents) on a tour of the Regional Forum’s static display. It was with the kind understanding of NBAA staff that we made our way to the remote ramp, where she boarded her first, second, and third business jet, and her first and second helicopter. Now Emily is a very bright and well-mannered young lady. And that made it easy for the various OEM reps to greet her with a cheerful “Welcome aboard,” making her first encounter with aircraft an upbeat experience. Suffice it to say, I think we have another aviation aficionada in the making.
U
And while the JETNET iQ was not quite as uniformly upbeat, it did provide some signposts as to what we can expect from markets and regulatory agencies over the next few years – and helped eliminate some uncertainties. The good news, according to the first speaker, economist Brian Beaulieu of ITR, is that while the remainder of 2013 and 2014 will be flat, he expects to see robust growth for 2015 through 2017, with interest rates remaining low. He forecasts a downturn in 2018 and 2019, but the scary news for the average US homeowner – by 2020, 30-year fixed-rate mortgages will no longer be available. Rolland Vincent, JETNET’s partner in the iQ Summit and noted aviation market research analyst, added BizAv industry research to Beaulieu’s observations. This year will finish with 670 business jet deliveries, but we’ll see a 7.5% uptick to 720 units in 2014. It’s not just the number of units forecast, however – it’s the product mix that’s fascinating. Large Cabin, long-range aircraft remain the order of the day, fueled by the continued growth of international business – and the increasing number of Ultra-High-Net-Worth-Individuals (UHNWIs). Yes, we’ve added yet another acronym to our industry, one that defines a segment with significant growth potential. According to David Friedman of Wealth-X, a provider of intelligence on such folks for luxury brands, private banks and charitable organizations, there are 2,100 billionaires worldwide, with an average net worth of $2.9 billion. There are also more than 187,000 individuals in the world with a net worth of at least $25 million. While a $25 million net worth might not qualify as a G650 prospect, any charter sales rep would give his or her eyeteeth for a list of those email addresses. Cash is king today in ways not seen in recent times, according to the banking panel chaired by Michael Amalfitano, Managing Director and Executive Head of Banc of America Leasing, Global Corporate Aircraft Finance. Cash buyers today represent 77% of
all business jet transactions, up dramatically from the traditional 50%. New and like-new late model aircraft are the order of the day, with asset protection like hourly cost maintenance programs a “must.” Even nonbank financial institutions today face compliance with post-recession requirements such as Basel III and Dodd-Frank, as well as heightened scrutiny on each transaction. A rosy outlook? Not quite. There is much on the horizon to give us pause. But with research and facts such as were presented at JETNET’s iQ Summit, we can plan and take action accordingly, rather than be paralyzed by nameless dread. Oh, and about the next generation? According to the note I just received from her mother, Emily’s new game at school is “airplane.” The youngster is the hostess, and some of her friends are pilot, passenger and flight attendant. Thanks to her “research” conducted at the NBAA Regional Forum, Emily knows that business aircraft are fun, and air travel is something to look forward to. And that helps allay my fears for our industry’s future. ❯ Gil Wolin draws on forty years of aviation marketing and management experience as a consultant to the corporate aviation industry.

BUSINESS AVIATION AND THE BOARDROOM
Future Watch: Using Business Aviation to secure a bright horizon. Possibly the world’s most recognized expert on the value of Business Aviation, Jack Olcott is a former Editor and Publisher of Business & Commercial Aviation magazine and Vice President within McGraw-Hill’s Aviation Week Group. He was President of the National Business Aviation Association from 1992 through 2003, and today Jack’s network and personal knowledge of Business Aviation uniquely qualifies him to oversee Business Aviation and the Boardroom. More information from www.generalaerocompany.com
Only fortune tellers and delusional fools claim absolute knowledge of the future. The rest of us must rely on experts who compile and analyze the reams of information available in this age of big data, opines Jack Olcott.
C
onsidering the many conferences and seminars that are offered to businessmen and women, there is no question that we all crave knowing more about the markets we serve—particularly how the future is likely to impact us. An industry of organizers defines agendas, attracts speakers and establishes venues for the many attendees seeking knowledge and an opportunity to network. If money and time were unlimited, an individual could spend an entire career attending gatherings of like-minded professionals in search of the magic dataset—or perfect job—that would provide an exciting and secure tomorrow. I recently attended the JETNET iQ Annual Global Aviation Summit, one of my favorite seminars. The topic was Business Aviation, the information fresh and relevant, and the speakers well versed in their fields. In particular, JETNET reported on its personto-person interviews with owners and operators of business aircraft, conducted quarterly to glean trends and identify community expectations. As in past years, experts external to Business Aviation also offered their findings on the economy as well as on the characteristics of the ultra-wealthy. With his characteristic good humor and compelling rhetoric, ITR Economics CEO Brian Beaulieu discussed the nascent recovery of the global economy. Saying that leading economic indicators are pointing up, liquidity is not an issue, inflation (for the time being) is low and manageable, employment is increasing, and economic growth is likely to continue throughout the rest of this year, his message was well received. His firm’s research indicated that the US economy would be growing at a faster rate in 2015 through 2017, but he cautioned that the US might experience a flat year in 2014.

What the Boardroom needs to know about Business Aviation
David Friedman, co-founder and president of Wealth-X, presented fascinating data about the growth of the Ultra-High-Net-Worth (UHNW) community. The number of billionaires, he noted, was growing throughout the globe, and considerable wealth was flowing to the upper-end of the economic spectrum. Punctuating his message that UHNW individuals were doing quite well, he showed an image of a receipt found at an ATM located in posh East Hampton, an exclusive vacation spot on the eastern tip of Long Island in New York state. It showed that the owner of the checking account had withdrawn $400, paid an ATM fee of $2.50 and had a remaining balance of over $99 million.
WHICH COMES FIRST? In the often-quoted but apocryphal words of master robber Willy Sutton that he targeted banks “…because that’s where the money is”, marketers at the JETNET iQ seminar were fascinated to learn about the capacity of UHNW individuals to purchase business aircraft. More relevant, however, were data focusing on the global trends that bode well for business development and the need for Business Aviation as an effective means for reaching expanding markets. Several speakers referred to the significant opportunities for growth in markets and profits outside the USA. Mega trends favor the demand for Business Aviation, particularly among larger aircraft with sufficient range to reach emerging markets and ample cabin technology to provide a productive working environment en-route. The global quest for natural resources will continue to drive the need for access into corners of the globe where public transportation is not adequate to Advertising Enquiries see Page 8
serve the rapid pace of business development. In China, for example, public access into the nation’s vast and underdeveloped interior is sparse; where it does exist, Airline schedules often are limited to one flight per week, which is not sufficient to meet the needs of companies seeking to move swiftly and efficiently into new business ventures that exist there. Global opportunities require a labor force with special skills that are often unavailable in the regions where companies seek to expand. New markets for ordinary goods are developing in areas long thought too remote to be profitable. To capitalize on world trends, entrepreneurs as well as corporations must have efficient connectivity between home base and remote sites. Speakers emphasized the need for face-to-face contact in establishing a trustworthy relationship with global partners. Research presented at the JETNET iQ seminar indicated that opportunities also are expanding within the USA, Canada and Mexico. Manufacturing is returning to the US as production increasingly is characterized by the use of high-tech robots and automation. North America is well on its way toward energy independence, opening a special window of opportunity as exploration and extraction expands. The message was clear: rather than being the result of expanding wealth or a symbol of success, Business Aviation is an effective tool for economic development. The wise entrepreneur and business leader uses business aircraft as a means for achieving success.
“ New markets for ordinary goods are developing in areas long thought too remote to be profitable.”

BUSINESS AVIATION AND THE BOARDROOM
Effective Training: Have you prepared your aviation manager to succeed? Peter Agur Jr. is managing director and founder of The VanAllen Group, a business aviation consutancy with expertise in safety, aircraft acquisitions, and leader selection and development.

Very few Business Aviation managers are properly trained for their leadership role, asserts Pete Agur. How will you make sure yours are set up for success?
O
n one hand, top corporate executives go to great lengths to select and prepare the emerging leaders for their critical business units. This process is enhanced by the extensive education and managerial experiences of the candidates. The Return on Investment (ROI) of these efforts is usually considered obvious. On the other hand, a disciplined approach to managing human capital has rarely reached the airport. That may explain why most executives to
WORLD AIRCRAFT SALES MAGAZINE – July 2013

whom the Aviation Manager reports state they spend dramatically more time supporting the aviation department than any other reporting to them. There are several factors that contribute to the dilemma: First, most aviation professionals do not have a formal education in business. Like doctors and lawyers, aviators and technicians go through a very focused educational and skills development curriculum. Often the degree description refers to a course of study in Aviation Sciences with, maybe, a minor in Business Administration. An advanced degree in business is a rarity. In the mid-1980s less than 1% of Aviation Managers had a Masters in Business Administration. Today that ratio has risen, but it is still below 5%. Look among your Aviation Manager’s peers within the core corporation. What proportion of them has an MBA? I would venture to guess many managers in non-aviation activities have advanced degrees in business. Second, the career path for aviation professionals is typically linear. Their development is most often devoid of leadership, managerial and business processes. As a result, there is little opportunity for them to gain practical leadership experience in business. Even when offered, diverse education is not a natural step. I recently interviewed a series of captains for a leadership position. When I asked what they would do with a $50,000 budget for professional development, only one-infour mentioned business courses. The rest intended to spend the money on technical training. Third, unlike the emerging leaders within the core company, the talent within the Aviation Department is routinely being led and mentored by someone whose heart may be in the right place but is hampered by improper preparation. This situation creates a Darwinian environment for Business Aviation leaders - survival of the fittest. If excellence, as opposed to survival is your U continued on page 30 Aircraft Index see Page 4

What the Boardroom needs to know about Business Aviation objective (and I suggest it should be, since you are their passengers), you need to examine the status of your Business Aviation leadership development program.
A TEST To assist you with that examination, use the following questionnaire. Give yourself 10 points for each “Yes” answer. 1. Are the formal goals of the Aviation Department directly linked to, and supportive of the achievement of the core business’ strategic intent? 2. Is the time that the Aviation Department’s reporting executive spends directly supporting that department about the same as, or less than his/her other responsibilities? 3. Is the Aviation Department manager truly a peer among his or her reporting executive’s staff of direct reports? 4. Is there a clear and active succession plan for each managerial position within the Aviation Department? 5. Is there an individual, personal Professional Development Plan (PDP) in place for each member of the department? 6. Is time and money formally budgeted for executing the PDP? a. (For 10 bonus points: Is the vast majority of that budget actually spent each year?) 7. Are performance reviews, consistent with the corporate model, being conducted routinely at the Aviation Department? 8. Are the metrics used to report Business Aviation’s performance directly linked to the benefits achieved for the core business? (Days and trips flown, travel hours saved versus commercial alternatives, per cent of days the aircraft is available, etc.) 9. Are reduced, avoided or saved costs identified and reported? 10. Is there a culture of continuous improvement at your Aviation Department? (Is a Safety Management System at the core of its culture and performance?)

Fractional Ownership: Easy entry into the arena of Business Aircraft (Part 1). David Wyndham is an owner of Conklin & de Decker where the focus of his activities is on aircraft cost and performance analyses, fleet planning, and life cycle costing for clients. Mr. Wyndham can be contacted at david@conklindd.com
David Wyndham describes the anatomy of this form of Business Aviation in a two-part article. This month he covers the basics of the concept.
F
ractional ownership lowers the barriers to purchasing and using a business aircraft. The capital needed to gain access to one or more aircraft is reduced by acquiring a shared interest in the asset. The idea is much like that of time-share vacation properties. When you don’t need full time access, why pay for the entire property? Furthermore, the level of knowledge and expertise required to use the aircraft is provided by the company that sells the shares to a number of co-
owners and operates the aircraft on their behalf under a dry-lease exchange agreement. In buying a share of an aircraft and having a professional management company run the entire aviation operation, you can step into the world of business aircraft ownership without the need to set-up and understand the requirements of an aviation operation.
HOW IT WORKS Each fractional owner purchases an interest in a specific, serial-numbered aircraft based on 800 occupied hours per year for each whole aircraft. Each owner is guaranteed 50 occupied hours annually for each 1/16 share that is purchased. Helicopter shares can be as small as 1/32, or 25-hours. Adding additional shares of either airplanes or helicopters often can be sold in 1/32nd increments since mixing multiple types of aircraft is easier at this level, giving the buyer more flexibility. Hours are billed by block time: actual flight time plus 12 minutes. Aircraft availability is guaranteed with as little as four hours notice. Owners are charged only for hours during which they actually occupy the aircraft (occupied hours). The cost of repositioning flights (‘deadhead’ hours) is covered indirectly by the occupied hourly rate U continued on page 36

What the Boardroom needs to know about Business Aviation
(i.e., there is no additional charge for moving the shared aircraft from location to location when it is unoccupied). Each shareowner has access to an entire fleet of aircraft within the fractional provider’s stable, providing them the ability to use multiple aircraft simultaneously to meet demand. The fractional owner can use a different aircraft type from the one actually purchased, as needed, by exchanging hours at given interchange ratios for different aircraft types. The fractional provider can also upgrade a customer, at no additional cost, to a larger aircraft at its discretion. Fractional providers operate a core fleet of company-owned aircraft and use charter aircraft to provide backup services whenever one of the “owned” aircraft is not available. The Fractional Ownership company provides the crew, maintains the aircraft and handles 100% of the management of the aircraft operations. They cover all the training, safety, scheduling and record keeping. Fractional programs operate via a series of contracts and agreements between the aircraft owners(s)/lessees and the fractional provider that operates the aircraft on behalf of the owners. FAR Part 91K, which is the Federal Aviation Regulation governing fractional ownership, requires providers to run their operations much like a Part 135 commercial (i.e., charter) operator, but with some additional requirements of the aircraft owner to exercise a level of “operational control” regarding where and when the aircraft operates. Note that the owner of a fractional share is deemed to retain operational control of the aircraft and thus is basically responsible for compliance with FARs. If you own the fractional interest, that shared asset can qualify for depreciation and other tax benefits when used for business purposes.

Avantair (Offers Piaggio Avanti turboprop aircraft). Flexjet (Consisting of Bombardier Learjet and Challenger models). Flight Options (Fleet comprised of various light to mid-size business jets). Executive AirShare (Mixture of Embraer Phenom 100/300 light jets and King Air turboprops based regionally within the USA). PlaneSense (Offers Pilatus PC-12 turboprop aircraft regionally in the Northeast USA).
Within each program is a defined Primary Service Area (PSA). Flights outside the PSA may incur additional service charges and positioning fees for the aircraft. While fractional programs have been provided since the late 1980s, each arrangement between provider and shareholder typically is tailored to the owner’s needs. Thus it is essential that a company considering the purchase of a fractional share have legal representation to ensure insightful due diligence before agreeing to the terms of a fractional contract. Next month, we continue our study of fractional ownership examining contract terms, costs and extraordinary uses.

xcess is a big word with pejorative implications. In fact, it was used by the leading Airline lobby in its unsuccessful attempt during the mid-2000s to shift fees from Airline passengers to users of business jets, at the time the biggest battle Business Aviation had ever fought.
www.AvBuyer.com
Then came the debacle of the Big Three auto makers testifying before Congress for bailout funds in November of 2008 but refusing to discuss their need for business aircraft. That situation really sealed the deal for an optics war based on Excess. Our industry quickly engaged in full-scale damage control. We found ourselves being distracted from the real business of Business Aviation. Knowledgeable individuals as well as large and small corporations felt compelled to divest themselves of an important and highly effective tool, the business aircraft. The National Business Aviation Association (NBAA) and many other aviation associations such as the General Aviation Manufacturers Association (GAMA) resurrected effective initiatives to create a positive image for Business Aviation. No Plane No Gain and Alliance for Aviation Across America are programs that moved into high-gear. Powerful alliances in Congress were formed. All these efforts combined to emphasize the real value proposition of business aircraft. Once again there is positive acknowledgement that American industry needs Business Aviation. Nevertheless, our community is very careful to portray itself along the lines of prudent users of a very effective business tool—the company aircraft. We are mindful of critics who wish to label our community with terms such as U ‘Excess’. continued on page 44 Aircraft Index see Page 4

What the Boardroom needs to know about Business Aviation WHAT IS EXCESS? Excess: The state of exceeding what is normal or sufficient. One could imagine how those unaware of Business Aviation’s benefits could confuse Corporate Jets with excess. Without solid evidence of value, such as getting out ahead of the competition and getting in front of customers first, often the message is not appreciated by the naysayers. They fail to understand the eloquent message of Warren Buffet who asks “How will you ever see eye-to-eye if you are not face-to-face?” The discussion worth having removes the idea of excess from the conversation and focuses on getting the most out of the resources available to create value. To me, that is the core of the business aircraft conversation. Business Aviation enables a company to create more from what it has. It is this slant on Business Aviation that will change the mindset of people who have been sitting on the sidelines waiting for someone to say it is OK to fly corporate again. Stockholder value and individual accomplishment should be the focus of Business Aviation.
BUSINESS AVIATION ADVOCACY There is no doubt that the mantra of value and importance to business growth can lead to a quicker recovery. In fact, any positive encouragement about our use of Business Aviation can and will bring about a return of stability to our market. This is a collective effort that cannot be done in a vacuum. It must resonate across a global setting.
World Aircraft Sales Magazine encourages each reader to take a look at the No Plane No Gain website (www.noplanenogain.org) and the Alliance for Aviation Across America site (www.aviationacrossamerica.org). Both can help you with the facts of Business Aviation having been developed specifically for advocacy for our important industry.
RECOVERY—IS IT NEAR? Our industry is poised for a recovery. An uptick in activity always precedes a price recovery in our industry. Signs of activity start with more calls to offices like ours to discuss Business Aviation with sales professionals. From those discussions come the sharing of specific aircraft data between the prospect and the sellers. The actual transaction is next. It is through the transaction activity that the supply of available aircraft begins to shrink and prices begin to firm and ultimately increase. Perhaps it is a bit early to send up fireworks. However, the first piece of the recovery puzzle is beginning to fit; more calls are coming in and more transactions are taking place. These actions signal the beginning of a recovery, even though we have a fair distance to traverse to get back to a place where we can collectively shout for joy. Baby steps were always the way our community achieved a more normal and balanced market after a downturn. The message from this article is simply to watch carefully, listen intently and continue to be proud of this industry and what it can do for business.

BUSINESS AVIATION AND THE BOARDROOM
Part 91 or Part 135? It’s a Board decision ! Keith G. Swirsky is a tax specialist and President of GKG Law. He may be reached via email: kswirsky@gkglaw.com
Deciding to include Business Aviation as an element of transportation policy for a corporation is easy. Determining which regulatory structure—FAR Part 91 or Part 135—is more involved, notes aviation attorney Keith Swirsky.
T “The Board, however, rarely has an idea of what differentiates Part 91 from Part 135, and seeks input from the various professionals it has retained.”

here is no doubt that business aircraft can be useful tools that corporations can utilize to increase productivity and profits. The purchase of a business aircraft, however, is a major investment that typically requires approval of the Board of Directors. This article discusses part of the process that the Board will undertake once the decision to purchase the corporation’s first business aircraft has been made. Typically the first step in the acquisition process is the retention of an aircraft broker to locate a suitable business aircraft. The Board organizes a team of
The aircraft management/charter company retained as part of the inquiry team may advise that the aircraft be operated under Part 91 for corporate flights. Alternatively, it might advise that the aircraft be operated at all times under Part 135 to ensure a higher set of safety standards, to provide liability protection planning, and to delegate complete operational control of the aircraft to the management company. The aircraft management/charter company might also suggest that there may be some sales tax advantages for operations under Part 135. U
professionals, including an aviation attorney, staff accountant, CFO and treasury representatives, an aircraft management/charter company, and perhaps a commercial lender. As the process unfolds, the responsible parties will be bombarded with information, much of which will be confusing and overwhelming.
BASIC QUESTION OF STRUCTURE One of the threshold questions presented to the Board is whether the aircraft should be operated under the Rules of Federal Aviation Regulation Part 91 (for private, not-for-hire operations) or Part 135 (for commercial, on-demand operations). The Board, however, rarely has an idea of what differentiates Part 91 from Part 135, and seeks input from the various professionals it has retained.

UNDERSTAND THE PROS & CONS
“Part 91 offers the greatest operational flexibility under the Federal Aviation Regulations for the corporation.”
48
The Board next turns to the aviation attorney on the team to develop an aircraft ownership and operating structure and to advise on tax related matters. Ordinarily, he or she will assume that aircraft operations will occur under Part 91, unless there is a compelling reason to operate under Part 135. Part 91 offers the greatest operational flexibility under the Federal Aviation Regulations for the corporation, allowing the aircraft to operate out of any airport in the United States that supports the aircraft’s performance capabilities, in any weather conditions that the pilots determine are safe, and during those hours that the company chooses to use its aircraft. Furthermore, the higher safety parameters associated with Part 135 can be “optionally” used by the company, rather than becoming mandatory. In other words, Part 91 allows the company to establish policy for operating under the higher safety standards of Part 135, unless and until there is a need to deviate from a Part 135 requirement to accommodate a flight request. Secondly, from a tax perspective, it is rarely true that Part 135 enhances the sales tax results (although, it is correct in a handful of states), and more importantly, there are significant negative Federal Income and Federal Excise Taxes associated with Part 135 for the corporation. (Specifically, Part 135 operations would trigger an obligation to pay Federal Excise Taxes, as well as cause a lengthened depreciation schedule and characterization of such

depreciation under the passive activity loss rules.) With respect to liability protection planning, one drawback of operating under Part 91 is that it puts operational control in the hands of the corporation, which means that the Board’s corporation, rather than the aircraft management/charter company, will legally be considered the “operator” of the aircraft and will have liability associated with all aircraft operations. In contrast, Part 135 places operational control in the hands of the aircraft management/ charter company. To conclude that the company would not have liability solely on the basis that the aircraft management/charter company has operational control, is not possible. In all likelihood, in the event of an accident or incident involving the aircraft, the corporation would be involved in any litigation regardless of the Part regulating the aircraft’s operation. The preceding article scratches the surface on a very significant decision area associated with acquisition of a business aircraft by the corporation. The issues discussed within are not exclusively relevant to the question of aircraft operations under Part 91 or Part 135, and several hours of discussion among the team is always warranted in order to reach a balanced conclusion on this important question. Thus it is mandatory to have expert legal counsel. Do you have any questions or opinions on the above topic? Get them answered/published in World Aircraft Sales Magazine.

What the Boardroom needs to know about Business Aviation
IRS SUSPENDS FET ASSESSMENT ON OWNER FLIGHTS OF MANAGED AIRCRAFT by Keith Swirsky Over the last several years, the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) has aggressively audited aircraft management companies and asserted that Federal Transportation Excise Tax (FET) applies to owner flights on aircraft that are managed by external management companies. The IRS has argued that the management company obtains “possession, command and control” of the aircraft, and is therefore providing a taxable transportation service to the aircraft owner, in circumstances where the aircraft management company employs the crew. There are a variety of additional factors the IRS has examined. However, the crew has been the predominant factor that has tipped the scales. This audit activity took on a more aggressive pace once the IRS Chief Counsel issued an advisory opinion in March 2012, which set forth an explicit statement of the IRS’ position on this matter and which further provided IRS auditors with a mandate to assess taxes. Since 2008, through and including May, 2013, representatives of the National Business Aviation Association (NBAA) and National Air Transportation Association (NATA) have been meeting with IRS officials to discuss this issue and to provide the IRS with industry information that might guide the IRS to a more informed position. Effective May 16, 2013, the IRS announced that it is suspending further tax audit assessments of FET on owner flights of managed aircraft while the IRS and Treasury work on providing clear guidance on this issue. This interim position is a significant development, inasmuch as IRS assessments have equaled, at a maximum, 7.5 percent of the entire aircraft operating budget, which for a large cabin aircraft could easily equal a $150,000 FET assessment annually. Despite the IRS’ announcement, audits of management companies are continuing. Furthermore, they will need to be completed. Presumably, at the completion of each audit, the IRS auditor will request an extension of the statute of limitations and therefore will not issue a 30-day letter, deferring the need for an appeal. What is the implication to an aircraft owner? Industry representatives will continue to work with IRS officials to develop a clear set of guidelines that does not hinge on whether the management company or the aircraft owner employs the crew. Yet, for those aircraft owners with significant annual operating budgets, it may be prudent to directly employ crew members while continuing with external management services. Furthermore, it is prudent to review existing air-

craft management agreements to ensure that they are well drafted from a regulatory perspective, particularly regarding “operational control” and “possession, command and control” matters, and most importantly to ensure that the agreement clearly identifies the management company as the aircraft owner’s agent for the performance of all services rendered thereunder. If you receive notice of an audit, you should not assume that the auditor will limit the scope of the inquiry as a result of the IRS’ recent announcement or that there is no need to professional representation at the audit; instead, be cognizant of the fact that auditors continue to be tasked with making assessments, and that professional representation on the front end is critical. Further updates will be provided as more information becomes available.

Insuring a “For Sale” Aircraft: A Basic Primer Stuart Hope is a co-owner of Hope Aviation Insurance. His career as an aviation insurance broker began in 1979, and today he is a frequent speaker/author on insurance & risk management topics. He also serves on the NBAA Tax, Insurance and Risk Management Committee. Mr. Hope can be contacted at shope@hopeaviation.com
“...a prudent corporation employing the services of a resale broker will ascertain that their interests are properly protected until the aircraft’s title is transferred to the new owner.”
When selling the company aircraft through a broker, two insurance options exist: maintaining coverage under the seller’s policy, or placing the ‘for sale’ aircraft on the broker’s fleet policy. Stuart Hope examines the advantages and disadvantages of both scenarios.
nlike automobiles, aircraft are not required by law to be insured. Failure to do so, however, would be an abdication of a Board’s responsibility to protect shareholders from liability and loss of asset value. Thus, a prudent corporation employing the services of a resale broker will ascertain that their interests are properly protected until the aircraft’s title is transferred to the new owner. Maintaining insurance coverage on the aircraft being sold (as opposed to removing the asset from the corporation’s policy, placing it on the broker’s fleet policy and being named as an additional insured) provides the corporation with several privileges that may seem advantageous.

The owner controls the coverage under the policy and can make certain that shareholder interests are properly protected and that premiums have been paid to the insurance carrier.

the damage, carries the appropriate non-owned aircraft liability insurance coverage and has not contractually signed away its rights). The owner’s non-commercial insurance policy often provides broader coverage than the broker’s commercial policy.
Maintaining coverage on the seller’s insurance policy also offers advantages to the broker. Any physical damage claim not resulting from the broker’s negligence goes against the owner’s loss history. If there is a physical damage loss that stems from the broker’s negligence, the broker is protected for diminution of continued on page 54

What the Boardroom needs to know about Business Aviation value/consequential loss (assuming the broker carries appropriate non-owned aircraft liability insurance coverage).
DISADVANTAGES FOR THE OWNER AND BROKER Retaining a company’s existing insurance coverage on an aircraft being sold by a broker requires the owner to pay annual premiums (which must be remitted at the beginning of the coverage year) and once the aircraft is sold, may incur a short-rate cancellation penalty. Furthermore, the owner’s policy is usually much more restrictive as respects pilot approval. The broker would be responsible for requesting and confirming that appropriate coverage is added to protect his interests under the owner’s policy. The Owner could recover diminution of value/consequential loss damages from the broker due to an accident if it’s found to be a result of the broker’s negligence, negatively impacting the broker’s loss history.
INSURING THE AIRCRAFT UNDER THE BROKER’S POLICY From the owner’s point of view, placing the ‘for sale’ aircraft on the broker’s policy may have some advantages. The broker may have a fleet reporting policy allowing the owner to pay in smaller increments, thus conserving the seller’s cash flow. There would also be no short-rate cancellation penalty once the aircraft is sold. Broker policies typically allow the flexibility of blanket approval for pilots on the broker’s authority without hourly or recurrent training requirements. Also, any loss will go against the broker’s loss history. The broker also may find benefits, such as controlling coverage under the policy and assuring that its interests are properly protected. The brokerage firm deals directly with their insurance company in the event of a loss and can use the clout of their larger policy as leverage.
consequential loss claims or be left unprotected. In the event of an accident, failure to obtain such protection can create a large reputational risk exposure.
CONCLUSION CONS OF BROKER-PROVIDED COVERAGE Owners must request that appropriate coverage be added to the broker’s policy, following up to be sure the provisions were included and premiums were paid to the insurance carrier. Coverage under the broker’s commercial policy form typically will be less broad than coverage under the owner’s noncommercial policy form. The owner may not want the broker’s insurance company representing its interests in a claim or possible lawsuit. The owner loses the ability to recover damages for diminution of value/loss-of-use claims from the broker’s insurance carrier. Consequential loss claim waivers against the broker are usually required. From the broker’s perspective, care must be taken that all contractual obligations of the owner, such as complying with policy terms and payments, are fulfilled. Also, the broker does not have insurance protection for diminution of value/loss-of-use claims resulting from its negligence, thereby requiring the broker to include a contractual waiver for

WORLD AIRCRAFT SALES MAGAZINE – July 2013
In a perfect world, the cleanest way to insure an aircraft being sold by a broker is for the owner to continue insuring the aircraft under its own policy, endorsing any reasonably required coverage for the broker, and for the broker to rely on coverage under its policy for operation of non-owned aircraft. Each party is responsible for providing insurance for their own interests. Unfortunately, it’s not a perfect world. Due to circumstances, it may make sense or simply be more convenient for the aircraft to be insured under the broker’s policy, which is acceptable provided both parties enter into the transaction with their eyes open to eliminate any unpleasant surprises. Obviously, each firm’s insurance provider should be consulted.

BUSINESS AVIATION AND THE BOARDROOM
Entry-Level & Light Jets Value Where value on shorter-range business trips is concerned, it’s hard to escape the heavyweight value edge of Light Jets, as outlined below.
A
“Where value and flexibility rule, bigger is not always better.”
s business jets increase in size from Entry Level & Light jets to the low-end of the Large Cabin purpose-built models, the stated seating capacity tends to vary only slightly; six to eight seats dominates the standard configurations of many of the offerings across size-category lines. It’s true, however, that as aircraft increase in size, headroom and leg-room similarly increase even if available seating does not. It’s also true that for many models, full-fuel payload doesn’t seem to grow proportionally, although some models do defy this general truism. Still-air range also seems to increase as you move up the categories, but ultimately steps up in size and range also reduce flexibility in an important, not-to-be-overlooked way: airport access. As jets get bigger and heavier their runway needs increase, often dramatically, with no appreciable gain in how many people can fly or how much equipment the jet can carry. Where value and flexibility rule, bigger is not always better.
Some will feel an emotional aversion to aircraft too small for their sensibilities; those same people may equate “bigger” with “safer” in a way that the physics belie. The realities of the physics aside, however, the next step up in size seldom results in a major improvement in seating capacity, let alone in full-fuel cabin load. In reality, the larger jets need more power which means more fuel to cover the same ground at about the same speed, so that cabin capacity changes minimally where maximum-range trips are concerned.
BUSINESS AVIATION REAL-WORLD STYLE Why do we so covet range capabilities seldom needed? A Light jet fully-fueled and flying a typical Business Aviation mission departs with fuel for the mission (including reserves), and in some cases sufficient fuel to return home without adding more. With the average mission length being less than 750 miles and the nominal maximum-range of Light jets around 1,200 miles, the crew enjoys the option of flying lighter and saving fuel.

What the Boardroom needs to know about Business Aviation Note: The lower the total weight of the aircraft, the less fuel it consumes on the mission, all other factors being equal. Fueling for the mission (with NBAA reserves) allows for a larger cabin load, making three or four passengers, plus crew, possible. In most cases where a fuel stop is not required, the speed difference between a Light, a Mid-cabin and a Large Cabin jet results in a leg taking only slightly longer to fly, but at the trade-off of higher direct operating costs of the larger jets. Any time gained in the larger jet we’re talking a few minutes in most cases - is certainly insufficient to offset operating costs running 50-100 per cent higher, or more. So for most people, the question comes down to this: Is a bit of headroom for a 100-minute typical mission really cost-justifiable? Light jets excel in accomplishing the needed mission at the lowest overall cost.
SIZE COSTS Five hundred to 750 miles at a maximum cruise speed of around 400 knots while carrying four passengers will generally cost less in a Light jet than making the same trip in a Mid-size jet at a 480-knot maximum cruise, and even more so than a Large Cabin jet. The time difference between heavy and light business jets on a typical mission is small, about 10 to 12 minutes, overall - not a particularly large timesaving for the costs of running the larger jet unless needed for more passenger lift or longer legs. Beyond these speed-range-payload operational basics, airport fees tend to be larger for heavier aircraft. With airports and FBOs increasingly turning to weight-based ramp fees for revenue, a larger jet incurs a higher ramp fee. Additionally, the Light jet crew will have the option of far more airports, often closer, more convenient and less expensive than what’s needed for the Mid- and Large Cabin jets. It’s hard to escape the heavyweight value edge of Light jets.

WORLD AIRCRAFT SALES MAGAZINE – July 2013
It should be noted, however, that ride qualities are impacted by the aircraft’s wing loading (the aircraft’s weight per square foot of wing area). The higher the wing loading, the smoother the ride in turbulence, all other factors such as the aircraft’s inherent stability being equal. Light jets achieve their lower take-off and landing distances, compared with heavy jets, by virtue of their lower wing loading. Workspace while traveling is another consideration. Decisions related to aircraft size are impacted by the needs of passengers to use their travel time productively.
“Decisions related to aircraft size are impacted by the needs of passengers to use their travel time productively.”
WHAT MAKES A “LIGHT” JET? Today we consider a jet “light” when its Maximum Take-off Weight falls between 10,000 and 20,000 pounds. About a decade ago the Light segment represented the bottom rung of the business jet ladder… that was before the Entry Level Jets entered the market, differentiated by weights below almost everything ever built at less than 10,000 pounds. The following Entry-Level and Light Jets Retail Price Guide represents current average values published in The Aircraft Bluebook – Price Digest. The study spans a twenty year period, from 1994 through early Summer 2013, and covers 28 models. Values reported are in USD millions, with each reporting point representing the current average retail value published in the Bluebook by its corresponding calendar year. For example, the Bombardier Learjet 45XR average values reported in the Summer 2013 edition of Bluebook show $5.5 million USD for a 2007 model, $6.0 million USD for a 2008 model and so forth. Aircraft are listed alphabetically, and performance and specifications for all listed models are featured in this issue beginning on p70. Do you have any questions or opinions on the above topic?

BRIEF HISTORY The Hawker 800 is a derivative from the design of the UK-built de Havilland/ Hawker Siddely and British Aerospace 125 that was first built in 1962. The Hawker 125 evolved into the Series 400 to 800 that were produced up to 1993 when Raytheon purchased the Series 800 program and renamed the aircraft the Hawker 800. The Hawker 800 is basically a Hawker 700 model with a 54-inch longer wing, a more aerodynamic windshield, an enlarged fin, and a deeper aft fuselage to accommowww.AvBuyer.com
date an additional 82 gallons of fuel in the ventral fuel tank. It exceeds the Hawker 700 model in speed, range and gross takeoff weight. This aircraft can be RVSM certified when service bulletin SB-34-3110 (Honeywell) or SB-34-3166 (Collins) is complied with. A total of 292 Hawker 800 aircraft were built until final production in 1995, at which time the Hawker 800XP entered service. The Hawker 800A (230 units) was specifically built for the US market and the Hawker ❯ 800B (62 units) for non-US markets. Aircraft Index see Page 4

The data contained in Table A (left) is published in the B&CA May 2013 issue, and is also sourced from Conklin & de Decker. A potential operator should focus on payload capability as a key factor. The Hawker 800 ‘Available payload with Maximum Fuel’ at 1,520 pounds is greater by 452 pounds (42%) than that of the Learjet 60 at 1,068 pounds. However, both of these competitors offer less available payload than the Astra SP at 2,055 pounds.

The Hawker 800 has two Honeywell TFE731-5R engines each offering 4,300 pounds of thrust. The Learjet 60 has two Pratt & Whitney Canada PW305A engines with thrust at 4,600 pounds each. The Astra SP has two 3,700 lbst-rated Honeywell TFE731-3C engines. Table B (left), sourced from the Aircraft Cost Calculator (ACC) shows the fuel usage for each aircraft model in this field of study. The Hawker 800 (234 gallons per hour) uses 35 gallons per hour (18%) more fuel than the Learjet 60 (199 gallons per hour) and slightly more than the Astra SP (225 GPH). Using data published in the May 2013 B&CA Planning and Purchasing Handbook and the August 2012 B&CA Operations Planning Guide we will compare our aircraft. The nationwide average Jet-A fuel cost used from the August 2012 edition was $6.30 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.)

AIRCRAFT COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS HAWKER 800
PRODUCTIVITY COMPARISONS The points in Chart D (right) center on the same group of aircraft. Pricing used in the vertical axis is as published in Vref. 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. 1. Range with full payload and available fuel; 2. The long-range cruise speed flown to achieve that range; 3. The cabin volume available for passengers and amenities. The result is a very large number so for the purpose of charting, each result is divided by one billion. The examples plotted are confined to the aircraft in this study. A computed curve fit on this plot would not be very tight, but when all aircraft are considered the “r” squared factor would equal a number above 0.9. 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 800 is competitive with the Learjet 60 and Astra SP. The Hawker 800 has a larger cabin, greater payload capability than the higher-priced Learjet 60, and offers greater VFR range. However, the Hawker 800 operates at a slower speed, costs more to operate on a variable cost basis, and its fuel usage is greater than the Learjet 60 and Astra SP aircraft. It can, however, be purchased at a lower price-point than the Learjet 60. Table C (right) contains the retail prices from the latest Vref edition for each aircraft. The prices shown are all for year 1995 production models. The number of aircraft in-operation, percentage ‘For Sale’ and the number ‘Sold’ over the past 12 months are from JETNET. As shown, the Hawker 800 has a higher percentage of the in-operation fleet ‘For Sale’ than the Learjet 60 (17.2% versus 12.1% - both buyer’s markets). The Astra SP has the highest in operation fleet percentage on the market at 20%. Over the past 12 months the Hawker 800 is showing an average of 4.5 sold per month. This sales activity highlights many opportunities for the savvy dealer/broker specializing ❯ in the Hawker 800. Advertising Enquiries see Page 8

SUMMARY Within the preceding paragraphs we have touched upon several of the attributes that business aircraft operators value in a jet. There are of course other qualities such as airport performance, terminal area performance, and time to climb performance that might factor in a buying decision, however.
The Hawker 800 evidently fares well among its competition, so those operators in this market should find the preceding comparison of value. Our expectations are that both the Hawker 800A and 800B will continue to do well in the pre-owned market for the foreseeable future.

WORLD AIRCRAFT SALES MAGAZINE – July 2013
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 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 - Seats Full is the maximum IFR range of the aircraft with all passenger seats occupied. This uses the NBAA IFR alter-
www.AvBuyer.com
nate 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 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 Takeoff 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. Aircraft Index see Page 4

Our encounter happened on Memorial Day weekend in a restaurant with a shaded patio offering a front-row view of the ramp at a busy local General Aviation airport. Just beyond the rail, aircraft hummed and roared - some taxiing by to the fuel pump, others shutting down on the ramp for a spot of lunch, while others made their way to the departure end of the runway. It was a busy day for this slice of the General Aviation community. Among the clientele in the restaurant were pilots sharpening

If only more people were itching to fly Jet A airplanes like that one. I'd be buying lunch today! - Midwest Broker
Aviation clientele. “If only more people were itching to fly Jet A airplanes like that one. I'd be buying lunch today!” Brokers and Dealers echo from different parts of the country; they all have prospects. These are not the prospects of five years ago – and not all as flush in their rush to do something. The old unfulfilled prospects of the Midwest Broker are doing well right now. “They’re doing really, really well. Their businesses are doing well, their profits are the best in years, and many of them have settled on a 'new normal' for their air travel,” he said. “They realized they can make do with what they've got, or some have found other alternatives to buying another aircraft.” Sales, according to various sources, remain slow and steady – although various brokers and dealers emphasize the ‘slow’. their skills ahead of business trips; others partaking of the fabled “Hundred-Dollar Hamburger”; another was checking out a prospective airplane purchase. There wasn't much talk about how much they are flying or how good things are for them - they just seemed happy to be flying at all. But back out of sight in a nearby hangar, Advertising Enquiries see Page 6
talks were underway with the aim of pairing up a small shop owner with an airplane suitable for his modest travel needs. “He's a rarity around here,” explained the Midwest Broker. “He's trying to buy.” Overhead pattern altitude a Large Cabin business jet flew westbound, headed to a larger airport with a heavier Business www.AvBuyer.com
DOWN AND UP AT ONCE Data from various industry observers puts available inventory of business jets at between 12 and 13 percent of the fleet total; the percentage actively for sale declined in the past 12 months – by more than a point. But in the face of the declining inventory the market is acting against the usual laws ❯ WORLD AIRCRAFT SALES MAGAZINE – July 2013

Dealer Broker Mkt Update July13_Gil WolinNov06 18/06/2013 12:06 Page 3
DEALER BROKER MARKET UPDATE of supply and demand. While inventory shrinks the average time between listing and sale has grown significantly, which probably contributes to a decline in average values. (Conversely to the jets, turboprop inventory is shrinking, steadily, and prices are increasing - even as time on-market is increasing slightly.) Research emerged earlier this year showing that many of America's top businesses are flying 50-100 percent more than two or three years ago. The increase in businessaircraft use comes in the service of those companies expanding their quests for new markets and new customers. Concurrently, charter operations have reversed last year's declines and are flying more, but expectations point toward a slump in bookings through the summer. Owners at the lowerend of the business and aircraft scales are still flying significantly less than they were in 2007, 2008 or 2009. Overall, utilization appears headed toward a mixed picture all year. According to the chief pilot of a small commercial real estate firm, his company flying is up about 25 percent from 2012 (which was down about 50 percent from
76
WORLD AIRCRAFT SALES MAGAZINE – July 2013
2010). “We're slowly increasing utilization as we see business pick up at our different locations. But we'll often wait to make three or four stops on a trip when we used to make each trip as it arose.” The change, he observed, saves the company less than the CFO's office predicted. “But they didn't seem to get the concept that the fuel meters don't always reflect cruise consumption – and that's the average upon which they based their projections.” The realization of smaller savings may work in favor of the company increasing its flying again. “We've been showing the boss that two trips evenly split can be easier on everyone involved, and are no more expensive than one trip with four or five stops in a long, long, day.” If that transpires, he added, his company's flying should by year's end be back at 2008 levels. “At that point we'll be looking for another pilot...another to share the cockpit hours – but not another aircraft. The boss figured out it's cheaper to keep one airplane as busy as two – if you can staff for it. So there will be no additional airplanes for us in the foreseeable. And the boss is not alone in his thinking. He learned it in a workshop.”

NEW SALES HELPING (A LITTLE) This lackluster picture of pre-owned transactions comes as the General Aviation Manufactures Association membership has reported a gain in first-quarter deliveries compared to the same period in 2012. Bombardier, Beechcraft and Gulfstream underpinned the bulk of GAMA's deliveries growth - other jet OEMs saw slight declines. Future jet delivery numbers will have to stand without benefit of Beechcraft's Hawker jet products. The propjet segment also showed a strong first quarter, gaining over the 1Q 2012 period. Some of these deliveries have already rippled into pre-owned airplanes listed for sale months ago – in some instances waiting on the seller's replacement aircraft before being de-listed.
CATEGORY SPECIFICS “Much of this shouldn't surprise”, noted a West Coast-based broker who deals largely in medium- and large-cabin jets – mostly in Latin America. “We've had more issues finding large-cabin aircraft that meet our clients' specifications than anything.” ❯

DEALER BROKER MARKET UPDATE It's about the same for him with medium jets, though satisfying clients is a little easier there. “A couple of my clients - bless them both - just want me to find them a nice deal on a large-cabin business jet… fast. It can be a Gulfstream, a Bombardier, a Boeing or an Airbus. They'll all do the missions, and the cost differences are less important to them than getting something they'll accept. “So far they've declined on three prospective jets – they can afford to be picky – so they're chartering in the interim.” Pickings are far greater among the light jets, noted a broker and dealer from the Southeast region. “There are plenty more light jets to pick among than light jet buyers to do the picking,” the broker/dealer lamented. “Lately my sales have mostly been used piston singles, a couple of twins, and a couple of turboprops. I'll take any and all leads on decent King Airs right now.” Recently he's been in talks with a few
pilots about starting up their own charter operations and they are looking at a “viable” light jet bargain available to them. “The jet is available because the company it flew for is selling it, or turning it back from a lease,” explained our Midwest Broker who is also helping them work on a proposal – and the financing needed to make it fly. “The pilots are available because they were laid off from their old charter jobs flying that same jet.” The big question centers on financing. “Fortunately, the airplane should finance fine – it's starting capital beyond that we need. So that airplane could be on the market for a while longer.” And that, explained the Southeast Broker, is the name of the market today. “So many prospects that hinge on something else happening before they can 'happen' themselves – in turn creating a ripple effect onward to make something else 'happen' for someone else. Just don't expect anything like the years
2005-2008 to happen again for at least another decade, a consultant for a major jet OEM confided recently. “Between the options to upgrade and refurbish, even the low costs of money isn't enough to encourage buying a new jet – not like they used to,” he explained. “Enough customers have discovered that newer technology usually costs more in a new jet than in a jet that has been retrofitted. Short of a revolution in direct operating costs per mile - a significant change in the costs of flying - not enough savings can be wrung out of buying new to make it worth the higher costs of buying new. Now we need to expand the pool - more pilots, more corporate operators, more airplane sales; it’s simple!”

ONE ENGINE OR TWO?
Propjet Possibilities Will you have one engine, or two ? by Dave Higdon
he turboprop world offers a little extra to operators: The single engine option that the jet world continues to lack. Single-engine jets are something of a Holy Grail-level quest in the turbofan world. We're still waiting on the first, despite a plethora of attempts in the past 30 years. While the business jet world continues to wait, the turboprop community enjoys a variety of twins and singles – going back years. In short, the propjet crop offers one more choice: One engine or two? The differences show up in a variety of areas - including operating costs, operational margins and redundancy - but not automatically in the area of safety records. So what's the potential operator's best choice in a propjet? The best solution is, of course, the aircraft which most closely aligns with their needs, use, and budget. To wisely assess the options, prospects should consider some essential differences before making the basic choice between buying a single or a twin engine turboprop. Then you can apply the details of that assessment to the options with the preferred number of powerplants. Following, we’ll consider the differences so that you can judge for yourself. ❯

ONE ENGINE OR TWO? Q: SINGLE OR TWIN? What are the key differences to the operator looking for a turboprop as the solution to their travel needs? When does one become appropriate above the other? What are the pros and cons of each, and the complexities of ownership of each? Mission considerations can answer many of these questions. For example, today's turboprop engines enjoy outstanding reputations for reliability and durability. With that said, stuff happens! Comparatively, twins do not claim a significantly better safety record than singles. If one engine on a twin fails, you're likely headed down some in altitude in the first few minutes, which may not seem a big deal… except in the case of an operation spending a lot of flight time (a) at night, (b) crossing mountainous or waterlogged terrain, or (c) any combination of these. A twin turboprop may be able to take you home in the event that one engine fails – but the chances are that an engine loss prompts a landing at the earliest suitable facility. Maintaining the skills to handle an engine failure through the first 400 feet after take-off and on landing requires regular training and practice. It’s the same situation in a single, except less training expense is incurred in the single thanks to the ability to fly single pilot.
THE UPSIDES OF TWINS The reality of a second engine propelling us forward will feel like extra security to many; certainly, the redundancy factor is an influence for many a buyer. Redundancy of major systems is another plus for twinengine propjets that the singles can’t match.
...the failure rate of today's dominant turboprop engines from Pratt & Whitney Canada is miniscule for both singles and twins. The odds of a failure in either category are approximately equal. Redundancy of electrical and other systems is a plus many an operator embraces. Twins also tend to carry more, but they don't necessarily fly as fast as the quickest singles - although among the fastest in the twin segment, the top propjet twin flies fast enough to nudge some of the smaller jets, but at so much less fuel.
THE UPSIDES OF SINGLES Nothing beats a single for simplicity, however; one airplane, one engine - lose the engine and you're either landing quickly, or not flying at all. Overhauls tend to incur less cost overall, while the individual cost for the engine may be somewhat higher than for one of a pair of engines on a twin, owing to the higher-horsepower powerplant. As for any systems redundancy (particularly electricity) there are other ways to give a single engine turboprop the benefits of redundant electrical power. From maintenance cost, to insurance, to pilot qualifications, much of the weight tilts toward the single-engine propjet. But to close on that loop, re-examine the past year's utilization for any trips that cross high mountains at night; long patches of inhospitable terrain; or lengthy over-water stretches. A twin failing over water leaves the pilot with a fighting chance, but an engine failure on a single all-but-assures a ditching. That said, the failure rate of today's dominant turboprop engines from Pratt & Whitney Canada is miniscule for both singles and twins. The odds of a failure in either category are approximately equal.

ONE ENGINE OR TWO? with the same total horsepower. Twin-engine turboprops mostly offer redundancy of systems – such as electrical power systems whereas single-engine turboprops today generally offer some form of stand-by electrical power to run their glass panels. Redundancy of electrical power isn't the same as powerplant redundancy, but it is helpful.
OVERHAULING Powerplant overhauls will cost the twin owner more than double – while aftermarket upgrades for some turboprop twins offer engine-upgrade options that are not available on most singles. Two engines equal two hot-section inspections per overhaul cycle, per engine. At overhaul time, twins tend to lose the loyalty of many operators. Overhauls are costly. A turboprop of half the power of another is not half the cost to overhaul. It may not even be as inexpensive as a larger engine, depending on its vintage.
GO WITH THE (FUEL) FLOW Total fuel costs of smaller twins versus the larger single will probably be close for the same missions since the smaller twins' total power adds up to about the same as for the largest single. Conversely, the smaller propjet twins tend to fly at slower speeds – and longer legs can add up to higher fuel bills. Nevertheless, arriving a few minutes later often is more fiscally responsible than arriving earlier at the higher fuel flows of the highest power settings.
PILOT TRAINING Although single-engine turbos open up the left seat to more pilots, their altitude prefer-

ences mean the pilot should be instrument qualified. Simulators for training in single and twin propjets vary but are generally available for private use. With only one exception the adverse yaw created by a single-engine failure makes the
first and last 500 feet the riskiest to fly. Remember: As good as redundancy is in a twin, it should never come at the expense of solid aviator skills.
INSURANCE Insurers will look at their claims experience with whatever aircraft you purchase; but there will be the penalty of higher premiums for both the higher hull value and the higher risk factor of the twin. Depending on the part of the world where you predominately fly, you may see a hit on your premiums – or benefit from a rate reduction.
THE GENESIS OF A CHOICE In the more than six decades of business turboprops it's singles that enjoy the blush of youth. They're the relative newcomers to the fleet, barely 30 years old in a business turboprop field traditionally dominated by twins. Starting in the late 1950s/early 1960s, twins dominated with names like “King Air”, “Conquest” and “Cheyenne”. Then the early 1980s brought the introduction of the Caravan. Demand for Cessna's twin-engine cabin-class propjets was dwindling as quickly as the market for the company's piston products. By the latter years of the 1980s ❯

ONE ENGINE OR TWO? production ended for all piston models and Cessna's propjet twins. Twin-engine propjets also fell by the boards at Grumman and Piper while other planemakers' development of twins stopped. As twin production receded, the 208 Caravan succeeded, largely on the strength of its service with one customer: Federal Express. FedEx's huge Caravan purchases helped make the single engine-turboprop the most-successful of the singles. As the Caravan reached market, a partnership between one of America's top makers of high-performance piston singles and a European planemaker brought to flight another new propjet single - the TBM 700. “TB” stands for Tarbes, the French city that builds the TBM line, and “Mooney”, the once-proud maker of the most-efficient piston-singles flying. The svelte, speedy single-engine turboprop won market acceptance, and two years ago was evolved into the faster, moreadvanced TBM 850. The TBM models top the efficiency stack, in terms of speed and fuel consumption and low direct operating costs. Pilatus joined the movement a couple years after the TBM 700 launched with the PC-12. A SUV-like single-turboprop – passenger and cargo doors both are standard – the PC-12 combined the pressurized comfort and operating speeds comparable to the TBM with the hauling traits of the Caravan. Then came the late 1990s and with profit-making sales of two successful pressurized propjet singles and one utility propjet single, an after-market provider began performing turboprop conversions of Piper's Malibu/Mirage pressurized piston singles.
...answering the question of whether you’ll be better suited flying with one engine or two is a highly personalized matter. The backdrop was right for Piper Aircraft to develop its own propjet single, the Malibu-derived Piper Meridian. Deliveries began in 2000. After decades of having the utility propjet market almost entirely to itself, Cessna drew some late-arriving competi-
tion in the form of the Quest Kodiak. With subtle differences designed to give it an edge, the Kodiak is catching on as a backcountry heavy hauler. All the while, these leading singleengine turboprops have stiff competition for market share from Beechcraft, with its 60-year-old line of durable, capable King Airs; and Piaggio's P.180 Avanti twinengine turboprops. The Avanti takes top honors in both speed and fuel efficiency. At 400 knots, that's the best since Piper's Cheyenne was rolling off the production line 30 years ago. The Avanti II remains in production while the Cheyenne is another 1980s rehab candidate. All things considered, today’s turboprop market – both single and twin-engine – is well stocked. Are you in the market for a propjet? As you can see, answering the question of whether you’ll be better suited flying with one engine or two is a highly personalized matter. We hope the above paragraphs helped identify some of the key issues for your consideration.

Situational Awareness: Whether buying or selling, appraisal should lead the process. by Dave Higdon he words ‘Buyer Beware’ today conjure up an era of laissez faire capitalism, often interpreted as “Whatever you can get away with, all's fair.” The fact that regulations are understood to do more to promote, than harm the economy and business activities led to the nation creating airworthiness standards for aircraft built for the public to buy and that govern ability requirements for the people who fly them – all in the name of assuring the growth and expansion of a healthy aviation manufacturing industry and transportation business. However, there's no more regulation of private sales of aircraft than on private sales of automotive assets - and an aircraft presents prospective owners with many more technologies and maintenance requirements than any car or truck. Assessing the value of any given aircraft, judging its market potential is a task too often overlooked by potential sellers and buyers. Yet in many ways a full value appraisal at the start of the process holds as much potential to save money as the pre-purchase inspection has before closing. After all, one can't embark on even the shortest trip without first knowing where it begins. Buying or selling, the appraisal is the letter “A” on a long list of items to check off along the way. The least you risk without one is your money. Remember: While we in aviation tend to believe aviation people are above-average honest folk, every business community seems to have its minority of unscrupulous practitioners. Alas, aviation is not immune to the occasional charlatan and quick-buck artist.

AIRCRAFT APPRAISALS you can do better because you've been hearing about the current “buyer's market” in business-turbine aircraft. Maybe it's the other way around: finances dictate that you need to sell for ‘Y’-dollars to come out whole. After all, that price is in line with what you paid and the TLC you've ladled on the airplane...so that’s what it is worth to you. In the realm of real-world transactions,
who’s to say what the right value is (correct asking price or starting point)? You could rely on what you've heard others received or paid – for similar (if not identical) equipment. The details from the aircraft’s logbooks will hold the truth ultimately. The reality is on display within this complex and complicated paperwork – and in many areas of the airplane that are visible and concealed.
The best approach to gaining clarity through such complexities is an independent appraisal by an expert recommended by a professional association on your side – maybe NBAA, NATA or AOPA. But to get to the heart of the aircraft appraisal industry, consider an appraiser certified by the National Aircraft Appraisers Association (NAAA).
MAKE IT AN EARLY STEP As the NAAA notes, an appraisal should come early in the shopping process. Even if you're not yet sure that this is the “one”, an appraisal can help you make that decision – and if it is the one, help inform your negotiations. One broker and appraiser explained, “When buyers wait too long to contact the appraiser they can find out they've signed on to a price higher than the airplane is worth. These buyers fear another buyer getting in, so they agree to a price on the belief that they can use the appraisal to leverage any changes – and then lose their deposit when the seller won't cooperate.” Then there's the issue of loan valuation. “It's best to know whether an airplane's value will support the level of finance you might need – before going to your banker asking to borrow more than he'll finance. “An early appraisal can help you avoid that trap, too,” the broker explained. Similar problems can arise when insuring the aircraft where its market value is below the purchase price or the amount that the bank will loan. Employing an NAAA appraiser means you should get a professional report prepared under the association's ethics guidelines listed at www.plane-values.com.
SAFETY BEYOND PRICE For some of the more complex aircraft (which applies to almost all the business jets), physical condition and maintenance are significant issues with real cost implications for the unwary. So a full appraisal that includes an examination of records and equipment can go hand-in-hand with a prepurchase inspection – possibly by the same service provider. Elements that need examination range from the obvious airworthiness, safety and equipment-issues examined in the pre-purchase phase, to the financial importance of a full equipment inventory, hull-value appraisal and the equipment and airworthiness questions fielded when financing such an investment that can influence everything from interest rates to down payments, loan terms (length) and insurance premiums. Is there damage history? If so, how was the damage repaired and by which shop? Was the repair performed by a service facility ❯

AIRCRAFT APPRAISALS authorized by the OEM, or by a relatively inexperienced shop in the aircraft type? Don’t neglect the state of any service bulletins (SBs) or airworthiness directives (ADs).
PAINT, CABIN & AIRFRAME INNARDS An aircraft promoted as having recent paint and/or interior work should be expertly examined to assure that the work didn't also serve to conceal a problem – maybe hidden corrosion, or repair work poorly performed. Was a part repaired or replaced? What would the factory recommend? Was the factory recommendation followed? Appraisers who've worked to become experts in specific aircraft can help with the deepest issues an aircraft may suffer. Their expertise in specific aircraft can make a huge difference in noticing whether relatively rare, largely unknown or invisible issues are resolved. The expert appraiser may also be able to help plan future maintenance and upgrade work by recognition of required maintenance coming in the future – which can also impact value. The bottom line is that an expert appraisal can be of value in tax-valuation debates with state and local officials, as well as the IRS; in setting a value basis for financing a purchase; for setting a hull value for insurance purposes; and when selling, to help the buyer settle his or her own issues with bankers and insurers.
should do the job. That job is similar to the appraisal process in some respects. It stars with inspection of the aircraft maintenance and operation records, the airframe, inside and out (with an eye to assuring the work documented in the logs was actually performed; that ADs and SBs were actually performed (and not merely “pencil whipped” into the logs); and that any repairs to damage meet the standards for repairs in aviation. But the pre-purchase should include inspection of internal structures and the internals of other structures. Corrosion, evidence of hidden damage and the efficacy of past repairs are all part and parcel to the pre-purchase inspection. An inspector highly familiar with the specific aircraft type is recommended, lest issues specific to the type my go unnoticed. The hiring company or individual should get a written report from the inspector who performs the pre-purchase examination. That report should spell out the details of the mechanical condition of the aircraft, the powerplants, aircraft systems (electrical, environmental, sanitary and galleys), and look ahead to work that will come due within the first year of ownership. The report should also detail any problems, shortcomings or neglected issues discovered in the process.
SELLER ADVICE… Take all the protections and benefits a professional appraisal can bring to a buyer (as outlined above) and turn them around; they can be equally helpful to sellers – particularly if the seller engages the appraisal before advertising the aircraft for sale. From the basis of this appraisal, the potential seller can see how the airplane measures up, value-wise, against other aircraft of the same type for sale – as well as in setting a realistic asking price. It may be that the appraisal convinces the potential seller to hold off – either because the value is too low, or too high in today's market, making it smarter to keep the airplane a while longer. Whether for the purpose of selling or buying, however, the appraisal should be an early, if not first, step.

WHAT AN APPRAISAL SHOULD ENTAIL According to the NAAA, a professional aircraft appraisal should leave the client with at least the following information: •
• • •
A detailed examination of airframe, engines, props, instrumentation, avionics and all relative systems. A careful review of aircraft documentation, log books, and associated records. A computer analysis of relevant value data. A sealed certificate of appraisal and the detailed computerized report submitted to the client.
As mentioned above, an appraiser familiar with the aircraft model and OEM can be a huge asset in this process.
DOWN TO THE NUTS AND BOLTS A qualified appraiser may also be qualified to perform a pre-purchase inspection. They are, however, not interchangeable, but different processes that are both related to determining a fair valuation.

won’t touch a plane unless it’s a steal. So what is going on? Are we in some kind of experimental capitalistic socialistic supercalafragalistic mishmosh? Well, yes we are. In all previous recession/recovery cycles, aviation has mirrored the Stock Market. The Dow has been a reliable indicator of aircraft value – whether up or down. Today, not so much. Let’s look at the data…
PISTON SINGLES & TWINS Having said all that scary stuff above, piston singles just might be an exception. We are actually seeing some slight upticks in value for a few selected Piston Singles – assuming they haven’t had too many incidents. Beech Debonairs, Cessna 150s, 152s, 182RGs, 206s, 210s, Piper Cherokee 140s, Warriors, 180s, Cherokee Sixes and some Arrows all posted increases this quarter. One quarter continued on page 98

2003 Falcon 2000 SN 192 2500 Hours and Exceptional Pedigree. Redefining “super” in a super-midsized aircraft. The Falcon 2000 has been the long-standing leader in the “super-mid” category. With a spacious, quiet cabin, transcontinental range and a miserly fuel burn, the Falcon 2000 delivers outstanding value. 2003 Serial Number 192 offers even more. This low-time aircraft briefly served as a Falcon demonstrator, and has since been flown Part 91 by a single corporate owner, one who has operated Falcons continuously for over 45 years. This aircraft has been cared for and maintained to the highest standard. The roomy cabin is tastefully finished in neutral earth tones and is ideally configured for 8 passengers, including a 4-place club arrangement and a 4-place conference group. Perfect for working, dining or just relaxing! Additional comfort comes from knowing your maintenance costs can be controlled through SN 192’s enrollment in Honeywell’s MSP engine and APU programs, as well as HAPP and CASP avionics programs. It’s time to redefine your flying experience with the truly distinctive Falcon 2000 SN 192. To learn more, call Jim Donath at Donath Aircraft Services.

PRE-OWNED A/C SALES TRENDS does not make a trend, but we are somewhat optimistic here. That might be another way of saying “less pessimistic”. Light piston twins continue to be stagnant, depending on condition and times. We saw an out-of-annual Cessna 310 trade for $25,000, but that certainly does not reflect the norm. The Vref Pressurized Twin Index actually gained 1% in value. That is two positive quarters in a row. The marketplace has discovered the virtues of this segment – comfortable transportation above the clouds at a much lower operating cost than a turboprop.
HELICOPTERS The Vref Helicopter Index lost only 1% in value during the recent quarter. While demand is not what it should be, there are plenty of missions that only a helicopter can perform. This is keeping the rotary-wing market relatively stable.
TURBOPROPS If there is a downtrend here, it is tiny. Good activity can be reported for most in this segment. Ready-to-go King Airs appear to be leading the way. Prices only slipped an average of 1% last quarter. The market continues to be pricedriven instead of value driven, just like everything else.
JETS The following will only be news to those who just arrived from Mars and have no Internet or phone service: The average jet continues to be in a downtrend. We don’t believe prices are falling like pianos, but one owner recently advertised, “Buy my Falcon 100 and I’ll throw in

a Falcon 10 for free.” That sounds a lot like two jets for the price of one! True, those two Falcons represent the outof-production, difficult-to-get-a-loan-for airplane that is so plentiful, but the disturbing part of this market is that late model, in-production jets also continue to slip. While the U.S. Stock Market was appreciating some 130% since 2009, the pre-owned jet market lost more than 60% of its value. Nothing seems immune. The losses were spread nearly evenly from Gulfstreams and Globals down to Beechjets and CitationJets. Presently activity is reported as mixed, as incredulous owners face another round of price adjustments in order to make the phone ring.

TODAY AND TOMORROW Whether it’s a Piper Saratoga en route to a business meeting across the state or a Falcon 900EX across the pond for lunch with clients, business airplanes (and helicopters) are, and will always be, indispensable. The difficult question is, “How do we get to tomorrow?” As promised, the U.S. economy is changing. While we are seeing some positive signs – a much improved housing market and fewer unemployment claims – there remains widespread trepidation regarding the fundamentals of what we proudly call capitalism. In order to survive the Great Recession, massive infusions of capital had to be administered. Yet, the patient is still not well. This leaves us in uncharted territory. In other words, we really are in an experimental phase of our economy. As more social programs come online, the burden on the taxpayer could be substantial, unless of course there is nothing wrong with this printing money idea. In some way we have all imbibed at the Government money bar whether it’s a tax cut or a stimulus package for the local highway. Depending on which side you are on, payee or payer, there will no doubt be positives and negatives to all future programs. What has been most impressive throughout the move into this modified, hybrid economy is that business goes on. In fact, we said goodbye to pure capitalism decades ago. Throughout the darkest days of this recession and the ones before, airplanes and helicopters - new and used - kept moving. And, if the price is right, they are being bought and sold right now. Products consumers want or need will always be in demand, bubble or no bubble. ❯ More information from www.vrefonline.com Aircraft Index see Page 4

There were 63,000 flight departures in May, more than 15% growth on April 2013 and a normal seasonal jump in activity. May 2013 flight departures were -2.7% down on May 2012. The activity declines were concentrated in business turboprop and piston fleets. The business jet fleet declined YOY by -1% in terms of departures, and fleet activity actually increased YOY in terms of hours. A slump in activity in Germany weighed down the European market, offsetting small gains in the UK, a bounce back in parts of Southern Europe, and further growth YOY in Russia, Ukraine and Turkey. Most of the activity decline is in private flights, notably in Switzerland, Italy, Austria and Poland. Numerous

countries gained charter activity, including Spain and Portugal. The big exception to charter gains was in Germany, where the jet fleet lost 14% charter flights YOY. By contrast, Russia and Spain gained business jet activity but lost turboprop and piston flights. Inbound flights to Europe increased from the Mediterranean, APAC, BRIC regions, and especially from the Middle East. Flights increased from the US, Brazil, India, and fell from China. Ultra-Long-Range aircraft posted an impressive 16% gain in YOY activity. Not only large aircraft grew in activity - VLJ aircraft gained 5% activity YOY at the expense of Light Jet competitors. At the top end of the fleet, major gains came through private flights. Heavy and Midsize Jets offset private flight declines with charter gains. Light Jet, Turbo and Prop aircraft lost charter, private and government flights. Only Gulfstream aircraft increased activity in all size segments. Bombardier aircraft gained activity, especially in ULR and Heavy Jet categories.

Smaller aircraft OEMs like Piper lost considerable ground. Among the aircraft types in most demand were the Global Express and King Air 200 (overall), Challenger 600 and Bravo (charter), Mustang and Falcon 2000 (private). Those losing most flights YTD included Learjet 60s and 40s and CJ3s.
Christoph Kohler, Managing Director of WINGX Advance, commented, “The yearon-year decline in flights in May maintains the downward trend of 2-3% in 2013. This month it was Germany that put the brakes on, outweighing some growth spots in Southern and Eastern Europe. “Despite the overall decline in demand for Business Aviation, Gulfstream and Bombardier are managing to find impressive growth. Furthermore the successful bounce-back in VLJs flying and the sustained popularity of King Air and Pilatus turboprops show that there is still a need for Business Aviation at the ‘utility’ end of the market.”

BEECHCRAFT View Beechcraft marked the recent EBACE Show with analysis of the turbine business aircraft market in Europe. As a manufacturer of turboprop and piston aircraft, the former Hawker Beechcraft Company emerged from bankruptcy protection earlier this year having discontinued the Hawker business jet line. It is however, continuing to maintain and upgrade all the legacy Beechcraft and Hawker models. The analysis reveals that a total of 1,199 turbine aircraft were delivered to Europe between 2008-2012 compared to 981 during the period 2003-2007 (an increase of 22%). The analysis also shows that there were 3,773 business aircraft in Europe in 2012, and 621 (16.5%) of these were in Germany, the largest market. This is followed by the UK with 503 business aircraft (13% of the European market) and France with 344 aircraft (9%). “Despite the economic challenges facing Europe, our research shows that it remains a strong market for Business Aviation even during the economic crisis,” said Scott

JP MORGAN View The JP Morgan Business Jet Monthly, issued 10th June 2013 indicates that used aircraft data shows incremental weakness. A single month does not make a trend, but May used market data, including a sequential increase in inventory (+40 bps) and decline in pricing (-3.6%) not seen since 1H09, suggest that business jet demand will remain weak. On the plus side, the younger part of the used fleet is performing better, but overall the trends were not favorable. Inventory increased the most for Light jets, consistent with ongoing weakness in this segment, and Heavy jets experienced steep price declines. Hawker platforms contributed to rising inventories. Demand for the Citation Sovereign and XLS are key drivers for Cessna this year, and used market data for these models were mixed: Excel/XLS inventory spiked but Sovereign declined moderately. Meanwhile, inventory rose for Citation X in advance of the introduction of an upgraded model later this
year. On the pricing side, Challenger 600s experienced particularly steep declines. The company says that low residual values are holding back a recovery, especially for smaller jets. While used inventory peaked in 1H09, used pricing has yet to bottom. The low values on trade-ins leave owners who want larger or newer aircraft with a wide gap to bridge. This dynamic is particularly important in the Light segment, where much of the existing installed base is in the US and independent business owners who are sensitive to macro and tax developments. Firming prices are therefore an important ingredient for a recovery and this should take more time. JP Morgan observed that used inventories increased 40 bps in May. Used inventory jumped to 10.3% of the installed base of inproduction models. Inventory had looked set to break decisively below the ~10% level at which it had been hovering for over a year but bounced instead. (2012 and 2013 data was revised this month to remove discontinued

Cessna models.) Light jets were up 60 bps, followed by Medium jets at 30 bps, while Heavy jets rose 20 bps. In the toddler and pre-K fleet, (0-5 years old) estimated inventory declined to 7.4% in May after ranging between 7.5% and 7.9% the prior nine months. The company says that average asking price decreased 3.6% m/m in May. Prices fell across jet classes with Heavy, Medium and Light jets down 4.8%, 1.7% and 0.6%, respectively. Prices were down 9% y/y and are now 40% below peak. Finally, JP Morgan says that flight ops increased modestly. The FAA reported that US flight ops grew 1.9% y/y in April. This was slightly better than the flattish numbers from the prior two months (adjusting February for the leap year) but it was still only 1.5% above April 2011 and still 16.2% below April 2007. In Europe, flight ops were down 0.3% in April y/y, the 18th decline in 19 months, though the magnitude of the drop was small. / More from www.jpmorgan.com

AVINODE View In Europe the number of aircraft departures fell -3.8% during the first four months of 2013 from the same period in 2012, according to Avinode. The U.S., on the other hand, grew by 1.6% for the period. This is the second year that U.S. and European fortunes have diverged. What has driven Europe’s declining fortunes? Analysis of Eurocontrol data shows a -4.3% decline in intra-European business jet movements, which make up 74% of all business jet movements on the European continent. Flights from European destinations, to the rest of the world however, are on the rise with a year-over-year increase of 3.8% in the first third of 2013. It is clear from analysis of Eurocontrol data that this decline is driven by reductions in both business jet charter and General Aviation flights. General Aviation flights, which account for 63% of European business jet movements, have been hardest hit showing a two-year decline of -7.0% for the first four months of 2013. Business jet charter flights, meanwhile, showed a decline of -6.0% for the same period. Fortunes across Europe have varied too. Among those countries reporting more than 3,000 business jet movements per year, Turkey, Ireland and Sweden have shown the most year-over-year growth in the first four months of 2013. On the other end of the scale the Czech Republic, Greece and Poland have reported the largest declines. Efficiency, on the other hand, appears to be on the rise in Europe. In the first four months of 2013 the percentage of kilometers flown with passengers increased by 4.0 percentage points to 71% in the last two years. The share of flights across aircraft categories has changed little between 2012 and 2013. The Entry Level, Light, Super Light, and Midsize jet categories have shown minor declines in the first four months of 2013, while the Super Midsize and Heavy jet categories have shown some growth. The one persistent stand-out is the Ultra-Long-Range jet category, which has shown a 10% increase in actual flight movements during the period.
PASSENGER AVERAGES An estimated 1.6 million Business Aviation passengers have flown through Europe in the past 12 months. The total number of European business jet passengers has registered a yearover-year decline of -5.4% for the JanuaryApril period over the last two years. This closely follows the -6.4% decline in actual flight movements suggesting that the increase in larger aircraft we’ve seen during this period
has not offset the decline in overall aircraft movements. In general, the average number of passengers per aircraft shows little variation between categories. On the light end, the Entry Level jets carry on average two passengers per flight, while the Light, Super Light, Midsize and Super Midsize jets carry approximately three passengers per flight. Heavy jets register the largest number with an average of four to five passengers per trip. Ultra Long Range jets, meanwhile, carry only three to four passengers on average per flight. In terms of individual aircraft models the Falcon 900 carries the most passengers with an average of 5.5 travelers per flight. The Citation Mustang, on the other hand, carries the least with an average of only 2.1 passengers per

trip. The Citation Excel is Europe’s most popular business jet in terms of flown passengers with an estimated 171,000 over the last 12 months. Unsurprisingly, the Citation Excel is also the most popular aircraft in terms of flights. While individual models have enjoyed some success over the past few years the regional fortunes within Europe have not fared as well. Many countries have stagnated or shown outright declines, and it has become clear that the lighter-end of the business jet sector has not yet matured enough to fulfil on its promise of converting premium commercial passengers into Business Aviation consumers. The hope, then, is that the growth the U.S. has experienced over the last two years will prove contagious for Europe. / More from www.avinode.com

Tri-Jets Range Map 7X=5950nm 900EX=4500nm 900DX=4100nm 50EX=3267nm
When you own one of the Tri-Jets, you own the best built business jet in the sky; and the Federal Aviation Administration has certified them with no life limits for any part of the airframe structure. They exhibit noteworthy handling manners, superb poise throughout the operating envelope and light but not oversensitive control feel. In addition, Tri-Jets have set world and national records for distance, speed, time to climb and sustained altitude. Aircraft safety is determined by reliability and redundancy. In the event of an engine failure a reduction of climb rate, speed and altitude occur. Critical engine-driven systems may be compromised including the hydraulic, electrical and bleed-air systems which draw their power from the aircraft’s engines. The FAA emphasizes redundancy more than the number of engines for flight safety over water; although there is a relationship between the two. Very High levels of safety are achieved with the Tri-Jets; the 900 for example has two hydraulic systems that are powered by hydraulic power from four sources; three engine-driven hydraulic pumps plus a standby pump powered electrically. The left-hand and right-hand engines provide power for the right hydraulic system; and the center engine supplies power for the right hydraulic system with backup from the standby pump. One system can supply enough hydraulic power to operate the aircraft and land safely if a system fails. An erroneous conclusion is that Tri-Jets cost more to operate than competitive twin-jets. Many long-range twin-jets use excessively large engines and supporting structure. Tri-Jets with their effective configuration, utilize smaller more fuel efficient engines. With fuel efficient engines, Tri-Jets carry less fuel than twin-jets. This results in a reduction of weight and operating costs. Smaller engines, the Tri-Jets aerodynamic improvement and lower operating weight culminates in an aircraft that burns less fuel than many heavier twin-jets. Tri-Jets have earned a stellar reputation among owners and operators; and usually have higher resale values than the competition.
If you are considering the sale or acquisition of your business jet, call 21st Century Jet Corporation today for details before making a decision.
