BUSINESS AVIATION AND THE BOARDROOM

Understanding & Using Business Aviation A Unique Form of Transportation. 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 Jack@avbuyer.com

“Today’s Business Aviation is a necessary (albeit unofficial) partner with the major air carriers in addressing the travel needs of business men and women.”

16

To obtain the fullest benefits from business aircraft, companies should seek the counsel of experts who are experienced with these sophisticated business tools, advises Jack Olcott.

T

he importance of Business Aviation is reflected in the infrastructure and intellectual property associated with utilizing business aircraft safely, efficiently and productively. Major manufacturers have invested heavily in personnel and facilities required to design, manufacture, market and support aircraft that serve companies and entrepreneurs seeking access to emerging - as well as established - markets.

WORLD AIRCRAFT SALES MAGAZINE – July 2014

Companies large and small, public and private have embraced Business Aviation by establishing flight departments, contracting with management firms to operate their corporate jet, or employing charter aircraft to reach destinations that the Scheduled Airlines either serve infrequently or not at all. Today’s Business Aviation is a necessary (albeit unofficial) partner with the major air carriers in addressing the travel needs of business men and women.

Consequently, the environment encompassing the successful acquisition, use and sale of business aircraft involves many sophisticated disciplines ranging from finance, equipment selection, personnel, operating regulations and procedures, management practices and oversight.

A REFLECTION OF SOPHISTICATION Jet Aviation, a wholly owned subsidiary of corporate giant General Dynamics, is an example of the sophisticated nature of Business Aviation. It manages or oversees the operation

What the Boardroom needs to know about Business Aviation of nearly 250 business aircraft located throughout the globe, operating the world’s largest fleet of Bombardier Global Express aircraft, and its total fleet includes nearly every business jet currently flying. In addition to aircraft operations, the company has maintenance facilities as well as centers for completing the specialized interiors of business aircraft. Jet Aviation’s operation as well as its reputation is global, and well respected. Even with such impressive credentials, which are well known throughout the community, each client that approaches Jet Aviation typically is accompanied by an aviation consultant. The consultant’s presence rarely, if ever, is because the prospective client questions the qualifications of Jet Aviation. Rather, the nature of Business Aviation is careful attention to detail and constant due diligence. Companies seeking the benefits of Business Aviation appreciate that the transaction to acquire and use an aircraft is a specialized process that ultimately relates to how the aircraft will be operated. Furthermore, the value to be obtained from using business aircraft is uniquely connected with how safely, efficiently and productively the company’s aviation assets are employed. Thus, most companies acquiring a business aircraft seek the advice and counsel of experts with a proven track record as soon as the company considers whether or not to use Business Aviation. Experts who assist with aircraft selection and related services, such as locating specialists in financing and other transactional aspects, typically are retained throughout the life of the ownership experience, including the owner’s selection of management or operating services such as Jet Aviation provides, or when the aircraft purchaser establishes its own flight department. Employing experts with specialized knowledge of Business Aviation is simply wise when overseeing the use of business aircraft.

CLOSER LOOK The early history of Business Aviation is replete with tales of aviation enthusiasts “selling” the idea of an aircraft to the company owner or the Board. My first employment in Business Aviation many years ago was with a management company owned by a man who sold the idea of using business aircraft to a public corporation that was managed, in part, by the person who played halfback on the same college team where my boss was the quarterback. The relationship between two college chums and teammates grew into a flight department that flew a Twin Beech and DC-3 aircraft. Fortunately for the corporation, the owner of the management firm was a conscientious businessman who hired good maintenance and flight personnel. Also, back then aviation was less sophisticated and in some ways much simpler. The corporation’s flight department was eventually integrated into the overall management structure of the firm, transitioned to turbine aircraft, and now operates several long-range business jets Advertising Enquiries see Page 8

“Employing experts with specialized knowledge of Business Aviation is simply wise when overseeing the use of business aircraft.” throughout the world. Today, such a transition from an enthusiast’s idea to a multi-aircraft fleet operating globally is unlikely. Business Aviation is unique. Its benefits will facilitate success for those companies that understand how to employ business aircraft. But acquiring the capabilities of business aircraft requires significant funds, specialized knowledge and careful attention to detail. There is little room for error, especially when the productivity and wellbeing of a company’s most important asset— its employees—is concerned. Engaging a knowledgeable consultant is a recommended investment. Do you have any questions or opinions on the above topic? Get them answered/published in World Aircraft Sales Magazine.

BUSINESS AVIATION AND THE BOARDROOM

It Starts With The Board! A test for Business Aviation safety. 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. A member of the Flight Safety Foundation’s Corporate Advisory Committee and the NBAA’s Corporate Aviation Managers Committee (emeritus), he is an NBAA Certified Aviation Manager. Contact him via www.VanAllen.com.

The greatest threat to Business Aviation safety is “assumption”, asserts Pete Agur. Following is a test to self-assess your company’s Business Aviation safety standards. ost Board Members assume that their company’s aviation service providers are performing to a high standard of safety. The following quiz is a quick barometer for measuring Business Aviation safety standards. It helps you understand your own, and your service provider’s tolerance for risk. This is a simple quiz. Score each item on a 10 scale. Give full credit (10 points) or partial credit based on how well the issue is being addressed. I won’t wish you good luck. This is about assuring that your company is living with an acceptable level of risk.

Audits and Reviews – Have your aviation services been audited or assessed within the past 24 months? How often are other critical parts of your business audited (finance and accounting, etc.)? Do your aviation services routinely gain the benefit of an outside eye? Is that eye focused on the lower standard of FAA compliance or on the higher standard of industry Best Practices?

What the Boardroom needs to know about Business Aviation 2.

Badges versus Behaviors – The International Standard - Business Aircraft Operations (ISBAO) is becoming the norm. It has three stages. The first two are progress installments. Stage Three is the Full Monty, which includes integration of actions into behaviors. However, IS-BAO is NOT Best Practices. It is a framework, documentation and a set of processes. The standards and behaviors that your service provider elects to imbed with IS-BAO are what counts. Does your aviation staff walk the talk? For instance, are there at least three people marshalling the aircraft every time it is towed? More aircraft are damaged during towing than during any other phase of operation.

Score: ____ 3.

Cabin Safety – Do your flight crews conduct complete cabin safety briefings for each passenger’s first leg of the day? Do they just push the “play” button on the auto-briefing system, or do they take the time and effort to show passengers what they need to know? If your company has a large cabin aircraft, is there a fully trained cabin safety attendant on every passenger leg? Do frequent passengers participate in cabin safety training at least every other year?

aircraft) but not enough to accomplish flight duties and run the business, which includes assuring safety. The number of variances from fatigue management guidelines is a good indicator of staff capacity. How often did pilots work past their duty limits (sequential hours or days) during the past year? A few times is typical. More often is not.

Score: ____ 4.

Cabin Safety Discipline – The highest risk periods of flight are during takeoff and landing. Are passengers’ seatbacks upright, tables stowed, and briefcases and laptops put away? Unsecured objects become nasty missiles during off-runway excursions. Do passengers keep their seatbelt fastened when seated? Dozens of people are injured each year from being banged around by unexpected turbulence. Do all passengers leave the pilots alone below 18,000 feet so they can focus on the job at hand?

Score: ____ 7.

Score: ____ 5.

Safety Budget – Is additional safety training (upset training, etc.) part of the company’s budget for aviation services? Does the aviation department have the funds to participate in industry events like the Business Aviation Safety Seminar, or the Safety Standdown? Is that budget spread among several members of the department to gain broader impact? Upon return, do the participants conduct formal briefings for the home team?

Score: ____ 6.

22

Staffing for Safety – Understaffing is the biggest challenge most aviation service organizations face. They are usually staffed for operations (i.e., they have enough bodies to fly the WORLD AIRCRAFT SALES MAGAZINE – July 2014

Safety Officer or Team – Does the aviation department have a defined “safety” function? The Best Practice is to have a Safety Team that is multi-disciplined. Safety is not just for pilots. No one person has a corner on the market for good ideas. Is the Safety Team comprised of staff members only (no managers) so there is a free flow of ideas?

Score: ____ 8.

Safety Management System (SMS) – Safety Management is the systematic identification of threats, the assessment of the risks that comprise those threats to determine their severity and probability, and the mitigation of those risks to an acceptable level. One component of an SMS is a Flight Risk Assessment Tool (FRAT). The FRAT focuses on the critical elements of a proposed trip and assesses and scores the risks. Unacceptable scores are adjusted by implementing mitigations. Do crews use a FRAT for every leg?

What the Boardroom needs to know about Business Aviation 9.

HIT Reports – If it happened to me it can happen to you. Hazard and Incident Tracking (HIT) reports are a great way to share knowledge. Does your aviation department have a HIT reporting process? Is it in active use? Business aircraft fly, on average, at least a trip each week. I have never flown a trip that was event-free. That means a fully functioning HIT system should generate numerous reports per aircraft, per year. Does yours?

Score: ____ 10. Emergency Response Preparedness – Does the company’s aviation services provider have a documented Emergency Response Plan (ERP) that contains dozens of pages of roles, responsibilities and checklists? Is the aviation ERP integrated into the company plan? Have a number of people been trained on the unique issues to be addressed in an aviation event? Is your ERP team prepared to take care of company personnel and their family members, manage public and private communications, and support subsequent investigations (NTSB and FAA)? Has an ERP simulation or exercise been conducted within the past 18-24 months?

TEST SUMMARY Aviation safety is a co-responsibility. Corporate leaders establish the goal (Best Practices or better?) and commit the authority and funding to achieve that goal. The aviation services team is charged with making it happen. What was your company’s total score? How high do you want it to be? How will that score be achieved? Safety starts with the Board.

BOARDROOM LETTERS Dear AvBuyer, Do you have any opinion on the tax deductibility of the prepaid maintenance payments? Can they be deducted as paid? Should they be recorded as a prepaid expense and written off when the work is done? Regards, John Hills

Dear AvBuyer,

Dear Mr. Hills, Having consulted our aviation tax specialist writers with your questions, it appears that there are new tax regulations that address these issues in depth. To supply a definitive answer to the above questions will require some research, the fruit of which will form the basis for an article in this section in the coming months. We appreciate your getting in touch.

Best Regards, Eric Libbey

I wonder if I could obtain digital or file copies of the recent four articles in the June edition of World Aircraft Sales Magazine on Paperless Cockpits and EFBs? I really enjoyed them and would love to share them with a few of my colleagues...

Editor’s Note: If you find a particular article within World Aircraft Sales Magazine helpful and would like to share with colleagues or contacts, we are always willing to supply PDFs of the article, free of charge. Send requests via editorial@avbuyer.com

“Aviation safety is a co-responsibility. Corporate leaders establish the goal (Best Practices or better?) and commit the authority and funding to achieve that goal’.”

The Continuing Theme... It’s a great big world out there. Jay Mesinger is the CEO and Founder of Mesinger Jet Sales. Jay serves on the Jet Aviation Customer and Airbus Corporate Jets Business Aviation Advisory Boards and was a Member of the Board of the National Business Aviation Association (NBAA), and the Chairman of the Associate Member Advisory Council (AMAC). Contact him via Jay@jetsales.com.

Having recently attended significant conferences and exhibitions in Asia and Europe, Jay Mesinger reflects on the growing need for subject-matter experts in facilitating Business Aviation transactions throughout the global economy. ews emanating from trade shows in Asia and Europe reflect a growing awareness of Business Aviation as an effective form of transportation for companies and entrepreneurs seeking to capitalize on global opportunities. In general, the aviation community exhibits an optimistic attitude and growing enthusiasm for business aircraft and the benefits they provide for companies engaged in international commerce. Newly designed and certified aircraft were introduced during the Asian Business Aviation Conference and Exhibition (ABACE), held in Shanghai, and at the European Business Aviation Convention and Exhibition (EBACE), held in Geneva. Attendees at each event found the same positive outlook from all sectors of the Business Aviation community, including operators and users of business aircraft, manufacturers of airframes and engines, avionics companies and service providers. All the participants in the broad aviation community felt the rush of a recovery. The growing enthusiasm for global Business Aviation was apparent in the significant attendance at the EBACE International Transaction Conference that takes place each year the day before the European show opens. Paid attendance for this event has grown by 100% over the last five years, and this year’s program was presented to a full house. I had the pleasure of speaking on the pricing and sales trends taking place globally, a topic that opened the event and dovetailed nicely into the rest of the full day’s topics.

What the Boardroom needs to know about Business Aviation INTERNATIONAL COMPLEXITIES ADDRESSED Presenters consisted of global providers of all types of collateral services needed to construct solutions for international transactions and operations. Each presenter addressed the layers of complexity involved to purchase, operate and sell a business aircraft. For example, it would be desirable if there was one taxing authority globally as well as one regulatory authority globally, but I assure you there is not and I cannot imagine there ever will be. What does this complexity mean? It means that before anyone reading this article contemplates buying, operating or selling a business aircraft, it is imperative that they build a trusted team to provide expert intelligence related to the transaction. In the early days of my career when the most I had to consider was working within three time zones and deciding which Flight Standards District Office of the FAA was the correct group to call to get simple registration questions answered, life seemed so simple. Today, I am dealing with all time zones globally, and I need a road map to understand which regulatory authority to contact. Conferences such as the one where I spoke in Geneva continue to remind me of the high value anyone seriously interested in Business Aviation can gain from these events. While regulatory and tax issues are ever-present and somewhat demanding, we operate in a “people world”. It is knowledgeable people who can guide us through the tax and regulatory morass. If for a minute you think it is possible to sketch out an operational and tax plan alone or from your office on one side of the world for transactions on the other side of the world, you would be making a serious mistake. The true value of attending international trade events comes from the people we can meet, the intelligence we can gather and the perspectives we can bring home to our local clients. Watch for international seminars, read publications like this one, keep your eyes and ears open for ways to grow your relationships, and strengthen your resources.

PERSONAL OBSERVATION Of course it is always nice to meet a new client or see a new product, but to me the real value of international forums and seminars are the resources we can amass and the relationships we can cultivate. The line-up of presenters at this year’s EBACE International Transaction Conference included tax lawyers, international registry experts and financing companies that specialize in global operations and registrations. There were experts in the international charter world and international management arena. Aside from the topic of taxes, these internationallybased attorneys spoke about registration and operational complexities. One presenter I found particularly topical was an aviation attorney from Russia. I was in the middle of preparing an aircraft for closing that we were purchasing from a Russian seller. The attorney’s presentation reminded me of the critical importance of checking the Specially Designated Nationals List

(SDN). This is published by OFAC (Office of Foreign Assets Control). Given the relevance of the sanctions imposed as a result of the Crimea conflict, a current check of this list could yield information that might have made the sale stumble. Good news, our seller was not on the list so we were not impacted. But this scenario is just another complexity to be understood with today’s scope of international transactions. Bottom line: Embrace this great big world, enjoy the access, and work as a good neighbor to grow global understanding and acceptance of business aircraft. Stay focused on the importance of Business Aviation and seek the services of knowledgeable professionals who are well versed in the integrities of international transactions and operations.

BUSINESS AVIATION AND THE BOARDROOM

Developing Aviation Managers: A key element in Board governance. David Wyndham is co-owner and President 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

Flight department managers need professional development just as pilots require recurrent training, and it is a Board responsibility to provide for such education, advises David Wyndham.

P

art of ensuring that the aviation department is efficiently managed and well run is professional development of employees. Just as the pilots and aviation maintenance technicians get regular technical training, the aviation managers need management training. Typically, flight departments are managed by pilots or mechanics who have been elevated to management by the skills they demonstrated in the cockpit or in the hangar. Often these high achievers struggle acquiring skills needed to lead personnel, develop budgets and handle other tasks of basic management. For example, in addition to the overall arena of leadership, two areas that often need reinforcement and continuing education are communications and finance, especially budgeting and financial management. The cognitive sciences are constantly expanding our knowledge of how humans think, how we behave in groups, and how to communicate effectively. Acquiring effective verbal and written skills requires education and practice. Financial management always seems to be a weak spot in aviation. Budgeting is seen more as a painful but necessary experience, much like a vaccination. Increasing awareness of the costs of aviation clearly requires a better understanding of cost management.

EDUCATIONAL OPPORTUNITIES Fortunately, there are many options available for the busy aviation professional. The Business Aviation community has a customized program geared to develop aviation professionals into management professionals: the National Business Aviation Association’s Certified Aviation Manager (CAM) program. The NBAA CAM is an education plan and certification process that awards credit for professional experience, college courses and professional development seminars offered within the aviation community. The CAM program is a rigorous path to certification that is designed to maximize a busy aviation U continued on page 42

What the Boardroom needs to know about Business Aviation professional's time in developing the skills needed to be a manager and leader. The Corporate Aviation Management Certificate Program (CAMC) by Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University educates aviation professionals with the skill set to effectively manage aviation departments in accordance with accepted business practices and corporate policies. The CAMC is an approved adjunct to the National Business Aviation Association (NBAA) Professional Development Program (PDP) for corporate aviation professionals. These Embry-Riddle courses also count toward the continuing education requirements for an annual review of the NBAA's CAM certification. The NBAA, in partnership with several educational institutions and professional organizations, has project Bootstrap designed specifically for aviation maintenance technicians. For those with but a day to spare, the NBAA also teaches short seminars during its annual Business Aviation Convention & Exhibition. Another trade association, the Helicopter Association International (HAI), also offers numerous safety, management and technical courses taught in conjunction with the Heli-Expo annual meeting and convention. Busy professionals have many options for obtaining aviation management education at locations throughout the US. Some schools offer in-depth focused courses, such as various on-line and resident programs taught by the University of Virginia Darden School of Business. Darden covers topics such as Aircraft Management and Aircraft Ownership, Career and Leadership Development, and Safety and Risk Management. (http://nbaa.peachnewmedia.com/store/provider/provider09.php)

AVIATION MANAGEMENT DEGREES The above-mentioned Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University has numerous degree programs for aviation professionals aspiring to be flight department managers. Many are taught through distance learning using web-based classrooms and online training resources. Universities with aviation-specific programs are too numerous to mention here. A good reference, however, is the University Aviation Association (UAA), which has 105 accredited universities and colleges as its members. These colleges and universities offer degree-granting aviation programs along with traditional business-related degrees. For those looking beyond the certificate programs, schools such as the University of Pennsylvania’s Wharton School, Harvard, Duke, Berkeley, and the Northwest’s Kellogg School of Management offer degrees in Leadership Development in addition and business-related degrees. Some of these schools also offer intensive week-long (or similar) seminars focusing on single topics, such as Leadership. Other Professional Development Programs, seminars and on-demand education such as webinars are taught by local universities and community colleges. The advantage of community colleges is that they likely have applicable courses for the working

professional. Community colleges are also an excellent first step towards a four-year degree. There are professional educators who teach soft skills like leadership with a specific aviation tilt. One such person is Dr. Shari Frisinger (http://www.cornerstonestrategiesllc.com/about/ about-shari-frisinger/). Shari’s Doctor in Executive

Leadership provides in-depth analysis and concentrated research into Emotional Intelligence and managing change and conflict. Her program is typical of the professional development that is being aimed directly at the aviation department. Whether it is through continuing education, refreshers or post-graduate work, aviation professionals need to learn more than just technical skills within aviation. Acquiring management skills benefit both the corporation and the individual. As Board Members and Executives, you need to encourage personal development for flight department personnel, just as the company does for middle managers seeking career advancement.

BUSINESS AVIATION AND THE BOARDROOM

Aviation Workers’ Compensation 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

Strategies for overcoming the challenges. Many insurers of workers’ compensation decline to provide coverage for the aviation exposure a company may have, leaving it to fend for itself in finding protection for its pilots, mechanics and flight attendants, warns Stuart Hope.

O

ur insureds routinely receive notification from their workers’ compensation carrier informing them that the company’s aviation exposure will no longer be covered. The insurance carrier may just have discovered our client has an aircraft, or they have decided that aviation is “too risky”. Regardless of the reason, the client must obtain a standalone workers’ compensation policy specifically for their aviation employees. While there are many insurance companies that provide workers’ compensation for aviators, there are at least five challenges that must be addressed.

50

WORLD AIRCRAFT SALES MAGAZINE – July 2014

www.AvBuyer.com

THE FIVE CHALLENGES 1. Insurers generally do not like to write “unsupported” business. For example, your aircraft is covered by insurer “A”, but insurer A does not have a facility to handle the compensation needs of your aviation workers. Your broker then has to approach other insurance companies that do have the ability to place your aviation workers’ compensation. A number of those companies are unwilling to write the aviation work comp alone without the “support” of writing your aircraft hull and liability insurance. In other words, if they are going to write your workers’ comp coverage, they want to write your aircraft. Fair enough. 2. Since most flight departments have a small number of employees— often only one fulltime pilot—the annual premium for workers’ comp will be fairly small. Many aviation workers’ comp insurers have a minimum premium threshold, below which they simply decline to sell the insurance. They don’t want their book of business peppered with policies covering only one or two employees. 3. Some workers’ comp insurers not only exclude pilots, mechanics and flight attendants but also exclude any employees riding as passengers on the aircraft. This prohibition makes it extremely hard to obtain a standalone policy since the insurer may not know which employees ride as passengers on the U continued on page 52 Aircraft Index see Page 4

aircraft and therefore what the annual payroll is for calculating the premium. In this situation, it’s probably easier to move the entire workers’ comp account to another insurer rather than try to find a standalone policy. 4. If the aircraft owner or an executive of the company is a pilot and flies the aircraft, this scenario also can be cause for declination by workers’ comp insurers writing standalone policies. Like aircraft hull and liability insurers, carriers perceive these operations as higher risk, under the assumption these pilots have much more on their mind compared with professional pilots whose only job is to fly the aircraft. 5. Even if the aircraft owner’s company is insured with a workers’ comp carrier that will cover the aviation risk, many owners who use pilots serving as independent contractors make a mistake by sending them 1099s (i.e. reporting the self-employment earnings) but failing to require the pilot to have their own workers’ comp coverage. Without such proof the owner’s workers’ comp insurer will automatically pick up the amount paid in 1099s on audit and bill the insured retroactively for the premium as if the

pilot were an employee. This can be a rather unpleasant financial surprise.

YOUR BEST ANGLE OF ATTACK If you receive THE call from your workers’ compensation insurer, you should employ several strategies. First, ask the carrier if they mind losing your entire workers’ compensation account if you can find another market that is willing to write the coverage, including the aviation exposure. Get started early so your aviation insurance broker has time to shop the market. Consider moving your aircraft hull and liability policy to an insurer that will write your aviation workers’ comp. If you employ independent contractor pilots, be sure to have them provide a certificate of insurance proving that they have their own comp insurance. As always, your best resource is your aviation insurance broker. Lean on that support for help.

Business Aircraft Sales Tax Planning: Sales and use tax considerations. Chris Younger is a partner at GKG Law, P.C. practicing in the firm’s Business Aircraft Group. He focuses his legal practice on business aircraft transactions as well as issues relating to federal and state taxation and regulation of business aircraft ownership and operations. Mr. Younger can be contacted at cyounger@gkglaw.com

With careful planning, a business aircraft purchaser can substantially reduce or completely eliminate sales and use tax liability on a business aircraft purchase, advises attorney Chris Younger.

primary consideration for the Board of Directors in connection with the acquisition of a business aircraft is understanding and addressing potential sales and use tax liability and, if possible, avoiding or mitigating that expense. Most deliveries of new and used aircraft occur in states with either no sales tax or an applicable “fly away” exemption, resulting in no sales tax being owed on the aircraft purchase at closing. However, many buyers fail to recognize that a

A

concomitant liability, known as a use tax, may arise with respect to the subsequent storage or other use of a business aircraft in one or more particular states. The use tax is equal to the sales tax as if the transaction had actually closed in the state that imposes it. Since the sales and use tax rate in most states is in excess of 5% of the purchase price, this liability may exceed $1,000,000 without proper planning. Companies often do not engage in any sales and use tax planning prior to their acquisition of a business aircraft and unwittingly end up with a large liability for sales or use tax that they cannot

What the Boardroom needs to know about Business Aviation subsequently unwind. This article will identify some important sales and use tax planning issues that a Board should consider. States thoroughly and carefully scrutinize opportunities to apply their sales and use tax to aircraft based - or even temporarily stored - within their borders. For example, California and Texas send out notification to all aircraft owners requiring proof of payment of sales or use tax or, if any exemption from the tax is claimed, requesting documentation that adequately supports the application of the claimed exemption. The Board must ensure that a company is prepared for such an inquiry before the company acquires a business aircraft. Additionally, the Board must understand that strategies for sales and use tax mitigation or avoidance are difficult to administer, overly time-consuming and sometimes confusing. States often insist that qualifying for a particular exemption from aviation sales or use tax requires the taxpayer to follow exactly each intricate step involved in such compliance precisely, and in a particular order. For example, in Florida and New York, the process may involve having certain items, such as dry leases or retail sales registrations, in place prior to the acquisition of the property in question. In many instances, it is impossible to know what a state requires without having previously encountered and engaged in the process designed by that state.

ATTENTION TO DETAIL Setting up an internal dry lease between related parties (i.e. a sale for resale transaction) is a common planning technique. However, there are numerous "gotchas" that arise in connection with the use of a leasing structure. For example, the Texas Comptroller carefully scrutinizes aircraft dry leases between related parties and, absent adequate recordkeeping and supporting documentation, will treat those leases as "sham" transactions, to which the sale-for-resale exemption from Texas sales and use tax is almost automatically denied. Texas, like all states, looks for evidence of an "arm’s-length" transaction between the lessor and the lessee, such as the actual payment of fair market value rent by the lessee to the lessor. In New York and New Jersey, as in many other states, sales tax on lease rent may be calculated on an "accelerated" basis, meaning that the tax is due at the time of lease signing and is owed up front on all the rent that will accrue during the term of the aircraft lease. Therefore, it is imperative that the Board understand and follow all requirements imposed by a specific state in connection with the use of such a structure.

The Board should avoid cavalier planning, planning that is not based on a specific statutory exemption or procedural structure, or planning that is based on something relied on in a prior aircraft purchase. Laws and their interpretation by state taxing authorities often change. Most importantly, avoid planning based on "cocktail party" talk where you hear that "everyone is doing it” this way, or that way. Naturally, all such informal conversation or “common wisdom” reinforces the need for thorough tax planning prior to the purchase of a business aircraft. Note: This article should not be construed as legal advice or legal opinion on any specific facts or circumstances. The reader is urged to consult legal counsel or other advisors concerning his/her own situation and specific legal questions.

Entry-Level & Light Jets Flexibility at lower cost levels. “Further, beyond these speed-rangepayload operational basics, the Light jet crew will have the option of far more airports...”

Ultimately, where performance and value reign as dominant factors, remember this: there’s nothing lightweight about the value and flexibility of the Entry-Level and Light Jets. s business jets increase in size from Entry-Level and Light jets to the low end of the Large Cabin models, six to eight seats remains the standard configuration across size-category lines, generally speaking. And while cabins increase in volume generally (enabling more productive workspace for those traveling longer distances), full-fuel payload doesn’t seem to grow proportionally in most cases. As jets get bigger and heavier their runway needs increase, with no appreciable gain in how many people or equipment can fly – and thus we touch upon the key advantages of the Entry-Level and Light jet category - the value and flexibility offered to those who typically fly shorter legs up to 750 miles. Fully-fuelled, an Entry-Level/Light jet can often barely carry the typical passenger load of three persons, unless one or two of them doubles as a crew member. Nevertheless, with the average mission length below 750 miles and the nominal maximumrange of Light jets around 1,200 miles, the crew

A

enjoys the option of flying lighter and saving fuel. Fuelling for the mission with NBAA reserves allows larger cabin loads, making three or four - plus crew - possible. The time difference between Entry-Level/Light jets and Large jets to fly a typical 750nm mission is small (about 10 to 12 minutes, overall) and is not a large time-saving for costs that may be considerably higher for the larger aircraft. Further, beyond these speed-range-payload operational basics, 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 Medium and Large jets. Thus, it’s hard to escape the heavyweight value of the Entry-Level/Light jet.

WHAT MAKES A “LIGHT” JET? Today we consider a jet “light” when its MTOW 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.

ENTRY-LEVEL & LIGHT JET PRICE GUIDE 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 1995 through Summer 2014, and covers 30 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 Cessna Citation CJ3 average value reported in the Summer 2014 edition of Bluebook shows $5.2 million USD for a 2009 model, $5.5 million USD for a 2010 model and so forth. Note: We have included 30 aircraft models in the following Entry Level & Light Jet average price guide, however, for additional assistance and interest, Conklin & de Decker Performance and Specification data for these Entry Level & Light Jet models can be referred to, beginning on page 74 of this issue.

FLIGHT DEPARTMENT MANAGEMENT SKILLS

High-Trust Leadership & Followership: Who is the very best leader you ever worked for? by George Dom reat leaders, managers, teammates and followers come in all shapes, sizes and styles. But there is one ingredient they all have in common. The great ones—the ones you remember fondly and would gladly work with again—possess a high level of trustworthiness. There are two great misconceptions regarding trust:

G

62

WORLD AIRCRAFT SALES MAGAZINE – July 2014

1. Being reasonably honest and technically competent at your job is all that is necessary to be trusted. 2. Trust occurs naturally on teams simply by putting “good people” together. High performance leaders and teams don’t view trust-building as some sort of warm and fuzzy idea cooked up by Human Resources. Great teams view a high-trust culwww.AvBuyer.com

ture as a non-negotiable core value that is absolutely critical for success. They recruit for trustworthiness, they train to build it, they reward, promote and follow those who have it, and they quickly fire anyone who loses it. More broadly, trust is the water in which all relationships swim. When the trust is high, the water is clear, the relationship is strong, everyone moves quickly with Aircraft Index see Page 4


Flight Dept Mng1 July_Finance 24/06/2014 10:48 Page 2

confidence and camaraderie. But when there is mistrust, the water darkens and everything is slowed by uncertainty, anxiety, anger and fear.

TRUST MATTERS Why should you care? Because trust is rewarded and the levels of trust have rarely been so low across all dimensions of modern life. Many have lost trust in government, media, business, banking, financial services, religious institutions, etc. Anyone who consciously works to build a reputation of trustworthiness will enjoy a significant professional and personal advantage. Trust is especially important in aviation because, as the saying goes, it is “unforgiving of any carelessness, incapacity or neglect.” Flight departments are in the trust business. Period. Everything they do is designed to earn and keep the trust of the people they serve. Imagine the impact if a pilot was not trusted to fly the company jet safely, a maintenance technician was not trusted to comply with airworthiness requirements, or an aviation manager was not trusted to control costs and accurately project future requirements. Measuring our own trustworthiness is a challenge because trust is dynamic and requires continual attention and investment: • • •

ences there is no compromise when it comes to trust. It must be a non-negotiable core value for mission success and survival. And the lessons that are revealed can be applied to all our relationships – professional and personal – to make them stronger. My Navy experience taught me there are five interrelated ingredients regarding trustbuilding. All five must be addressed – none can be neglected – and working on one contributes to the other four. For each element of trust there is a question your team, your boss, your partners and even your family members are asking about you consciously or unconsciously. Depending on the answers, they decide how much they will trust you. The five components of trustworthiness are: character, commitment, competence, connection and communication. • Character – Do you walk your talk? • Commitment – Will you be there when times are rough? • Competence – Are you skilled and relevant? • Connection – Do they believe you understand them? • Communication – Do they understand you?

You may be trusted today, but not tomorrow. You may be trusted by some colleagues, but not others. You may be trusted in some areas, but not all areas.

Over the forthcoming issues of World Aircraft Sales Magazine, we will cover each component and discuss how you can raise the level of trust in your team and all your relationships.

CULTIVATE AND NURTURE TRUST RELATIONSHIPS THROUGH THE ‘FIVE Cs’.

Too often we misjudge our trustworthiness by measuring it based on the people who trust us the most. “John trusts me, therefore I’m trustworthy. Bob doesn’t trust me – he must have trust issues.” What we believe about our own trustworthiness may be interesting, but it is not sufficient. What matters is what others think. Trust is a gift that must be regularly earned – it can’t be bought, demanded, expected or coerced.

EARNING TRUST How can trust be achieved? What are the ingredients required to become highly trusted? Sometimes the best place to look for answers and insights is to examine extreme circumstances for universal principles. My 26-year career flying Navy strikefighters off and on aircraft carriers, in combat, intense Topgun flight training, and highspeed/low-altitude Blue Angels flight demonstrations provided a living laboratory regarding building and preserving a high level of trust.

FLIGHT DEPARTMENT MANAGEMENT SKILLS

Five Steps to Communicate the Value of Aviation Certification basics for Business Aviation managers. by Walter Kraujalis he aviation professional must understand and be able to communicate the value of Business Aviation by interacting with key people about aviation capabilities that help the company achieve its goals. The focus of senior management is upon the company’s business goals, and they may not be aware of the possibilities that private aviation offers.

STEP 1 – AWARENESS

Be aware of and understand Business Aviation capabilities. According to the National Business Aviation Association (NBAA) ‘No Plane No Gain’ advocacy program, private air travel provides:

T

64

WORLD AIRCRAFT SALES MAGAZINE – July 2014

Flexibility in schedule. In today’s business environment, companies need to be nimble and move quickly. Increased employee productivity and security. Traveling aboard business aircraft provides space and privacy to meet, plan and work enroute. Employees can discuss proprietary information in a secure environment without fear of eavesdropping, industrial espionage or physical threat. Contact with colleagues en-route. Telephone and internet capabilities onboard business aircraft are far superior and more secure than what is typically available on airliners. Access to destinations with little or no www.AvBuyer.com

airline service. Private aviation can access 5,000 airports in the United States compared to 500 airports with Airline service. Schedule predictability. More than three percent of all Scheduled Airline flights are cancelled, and twenty-five percent are delayed. Business Aviation has a better than 95 percent probability of meeting its schedule. Less time required to reach multiple destinations. In one day a company executive can go to several destinations that would take two or three days to do by Airline. Support of company employees. Sales teams can quickly meet prospects or Aircraft Index see Page 4

FLIGHT DEPARTMENT MANAGEMENT SKILLS

customers face-to-face. An engineering teams can be on the scene quickly to resolve a problem. Greater return to shareholders. Studies show that businesses with their own air transportation solution provide better returns to shareholders within their industry.

STEP 2 – ANALYZE Analyze Business Aviation benefits that will improve the way your company currently operates. Are there areas within the company that can take advantage of the capabilities business aircraft provide? Are there company divisions or departments that could excel with the feature of getting to multiple destinations in one day or just a few days, at their own pace and schedule? Are there remote market areas that are under-serviced because they are difficult to reach? List all the mission possibilities. With each new mission possibility, determine the destinations and frequency of flights using a business aircraft. This analysis provides you with an estimated number of annual flight hours to accomplish each mission. There are several delivery systems available for accessing private air travel. These include air charter, jet card programs, fractional aircraft ownership, or whole aircraft ownership. Each platform has its strengths in service and unique costs. Take each of the new possible missions identified and determine the ability of each platform to accomplish the mission. Tally the estimated annual costs for each.

STEP 3 – APPLY Determine how this mission analysis applies to your company. For each new mission possibility identified, determine the costs associated with the current travel mode, such as the Scheduled Airlines, that your company employs. Be sure to include the cost of the extra time it takes each employee to travel by Airline. If a new mission opportunity you identified is not currently being accomplished, determine the cost of the lost opportunity (i.e. the loss of possible increased sales and profit). Take these cost numbers and compare them to the cost and profit possibilities associated with each new mission using Business Aviation. Be sure to consider the value derived from time saved. You may be pleasantly surprised with what you see. Very often the Business Aviation option can be conducted at less cost or will provide a better profit margin.

66

WORLD AIRCRAFT SALES MAGAZINE – July 2014

STEP 4 – ADVOCATE Communicate to those within your company who are responsible for overseeing profitability—they need to know the benefits of Business Aviation. Present your analysis in a manner and time aligned with the characteristics of the intended audience. Depending upon who will be receiving your message, a formal presentation with PowerPoint slides might be necessary or a casual conversation might be more effective. Consider how the information should be presented within the corporate structure. Solicit advice from your immediate supervisor. Depending upon the company culture, it may be advantageous to win the CFO or department head over to your side early, or perhaps go to top management first. Keep your focus on the additional profits and cost savings made possible via Business Aviation. Properly managed, a company aircraft is a tool that increases mobility and personnel efficiency.

STEP 5 – AGAIN… Complete a Business Aviation analysis every year. Your study should not be a one-time occurrence. Companies change, as do their business needs. Management changes. Market areas change. What is effective today may not be appropriate for tomorrow.

BRIEF HISTORY The Citation Mustang is even smaller and lighter than Cessna’s first-ever corporate jet built in 1971, the Citation 500. The Citation 500 was developed to be the first affordable, Entry Level executive jet and was marketed to compete directly with the Beech King Air. Fast-forward to today, Textron Aviation now owns both the Cessna Mustang and the Beechcraft King Air. The Citation Mustang (Model 510) was first announced in 2002, and was introduced to compete with the new breed of in-development Very Light Jet (VLJ) from Adam Aircraft, Eclipse Aviation, Embraer and Piper (among others).

500/550 to the Citation Mustang and Embraer Phenom 100 equation, the Citation Mustang enjoys a 44% market share of a total of 1,019 deliveries, whereas the Phenom has 30% and the Eclipse models 26% of the market. The data contained in Table A (left) is sourced from Conklin & de Decker, and also published in B&CA, May 2014 issue. As we have mentioned in past articles, a potential operator should focus on payload capability as a key factor. The Citation Mustang ‘Available Payload with Maximum Fuel’ at 600 pounds is marginally more than that offered by the Phenom 100 (580 lbs). However, according to Aircraft Cost Calculator (also represented in Table A), the Mustang burns just 81 gallons of fuel per hour (GPH), which is 35.7% less than the Phenom 100 (126 GPH).

CABIN VOLUME According to Conklin & de Decker, the cabin volume of the Mustang (163 cubic feet) is less than the Phenom 100 (212 cubic feet). The Phenom 100 offers more than two feet additional cabin length, and (as represented in our UPCAST JETBOOK cabin cross-sections (Chart B, left), the cabin height is a half foot taller than the Mustang, while the Mustang’s cabin width dimensions are also slightly smaller than the Phenom 100 aircraft. Chart C (left) shows the circle ranges from Kansas, USA, for the business jets in this field of study, as sourced from Aircraft Cost Calculator. The Phenom 100 shows more range coverage than the Mustang. Note: For jets and turboprops, ‘Seats-Full Range’ represents the maximum IFR range of the aircraft at Long-Range Cruise with all passenger seats occupied. ACC assumes NBAA IFR fuel reserve calculation for a 200 nautical mile alternate. The lines depicted do not include winds aloft or any other weather-related obstacles.

CHART D - COST PER MILE*

COST PER MILE COMPARISONS Using data published in the May 2014 B&CA Planning and Purchasing Handbook and the August 2013 B&CA Operations Planning Guide we will compare our aircraft. The nationwide average Jet-A fuel cost in the August 2013 edition was $6.08 per gallon at press time, so for the sake of comparison we’ll chart the numbers as published. Note: Fuel price used from this source does not represent an average price for the year. Chart D (right) details ‘Cost per Mile’, and compares the Citation Mustang to the Phenom 100 factoring direct costs, and with each aircraft flying a 600nm mission with 800 pounds (four passengers) payload. The Citation Mustang cost at $2.46 per nautical mile is virtually the same as the Phenom 100 at $2.47.

Considering the whollyowned Citation Mustang aircraft, according to JETNET North America is home to the majority with 262 (61%), followed by Europe at 95 units (22%). Currently, one dozen Citation Mustang aircraft are in shared ownership, and there is only one in a fractional-ownership arrangement.

DEPRECIATION SCHEDULE FOR BUSINESS AIRCRAFT Aircraft that are used in a trade, business, or for the production of income that are primarily operat-

72

ed domestically, and not used in common or contract carriage (e.g. Part 91) may be depreciated over a five-year Modified Accelerated Cost Recovery System (MACRS) schedule. Aircraft used in common or contract carriage (e.g., Part 135) are depreciable under seven-year MACRS (see Table C, above). Table D (above), meanwhile, depicts an example of using the MACRS schedule for a 2014 Mustang in private (Part 91) and charter (Part 135) operations over five and seven-year periods assuming a Vref retail value of $3.5 million.

ASKING PRICES VS AFTT, AGE & ENGINE THRUST Chart F (top, right), sourced from the Multi-dimensional Economic Evaluators (MEE) Inc., (www.meevaluators.com), shows a Value and Demand chart for the Mustang, Phenom 100 and also the Eclipse 500 business jet. The current pre-owned market for these very light/Entry Level business jets shows a total of 92 aircraft ‘For Sale’. Forty seven of the 92 have an asking price - thus, we have plotted the 47 with asking prices. Demand and Value are on opposite sides of the same Price

www.AvBuyer.com

axis. The market treats the Mustang, Phenom 100, and Eclipse in much the same way. The Demand Equation (right side) for these vehicles is Price $m = 12.8 Quantity-0.831. The somewhat flat slope (exponent > -1.0) indicates that there is slightly more revenue in the bottom-most bin ($1m) than there is in the uppermost bin ($3.5m). This equation is very well correlated, with a R2 of 99.4% (with a P-Value of 0.0002). The Value Equation (left side) for these vehicles is Price $m = 1,047, 247 + 806 *Aircraft Thrust (total at sea level, in pounds), –193,543 *Years, –224 *Total Time on the Airframe. We find that the Value Equation for these vehicles is very well correlated too, with a R2 of 90.9% (with P-Values of 7.44E-12, 1.09E-05 and 3.43%, respectively). This equation means that the market adds $806 for every added pound of thrust, but subtracts $193,543 for each added year and $224 for every added hour. We also needed to consider ‘Thrust’ as it turns out to be an important influencing variable (as witnessed by its very low PValue). In the Value section of the chart, the upper blue plane uses our value equation with the Phenom 100's 3,390 lbst, and relates to the blue cubes that represent the Phenom 100. The middle coral plane uses our value equation with the Mustang's 2,920 pounds of thrust relating to the coral spheres that represent the Mustang. The lower brown plane uses our value equation with the Eclipse 500's 1,800 lbst, and relates to the brown octahedrons that represent the Eclipse 500. Thus, the market for used Phenom 100s, Eclipse 500s and Mustangs is statistically responsive to at least the five features depicted here: Years, Total Time on Air Frame, Thrust, Price and Quantity.

PRODUCTIVITY COMPARISONS The points in Chart G (right) center on the Mustang and Phenom 100 aircraft. Pricing used in the vertical axis is as published in the Aircraft Index see Page 4

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 business jets are considered the “r” squared factor would equal a number above 0.9. Others may choose different parameters, but serious business jet buyers are usually impressed with price, range, speed, and cabin size. After consideration of the value (difference of $885k) and fuel savings, we can conclude that the Citation Mustang, as shown in the productivity index is productive and has been popular with a high market share having started deliveries two years earlier (in 2006) than the Phenom 100. For Available Payload (full fuel)-to-Cabin Capacity-ratio, the Mustang offers a highly competitive value to a prospective owner for whom the smaller cabin capacity is not an issue. Nevertheless, the greater range, speed and cabin capacity will weigh in favour of the Phenom 100 for some operators. So, eight years after first delivery, what will the future hold for the Mustang? History tends to show that after an aircraft model has been in production for between six and ten years – especially one that sells as well as the Mustang has - an upgraded successor will eventually be introduced by the OEM to maintain that success in the face of the ever increasing sophistication of Business

Aviation technology. Could Cessna be ready to announce an upgrade on the Citation Mustang any time soon to keep the model attractive to the market, and retain its leading market share for unit deliveries within the Entry Level segment? Cessna has developed the Citation M2 to keep its competitive edge. Of course, other competitors are on the horizon, too: The HondaJet is priced at $4.5 million, for example, and Eclipse has re-emerged recently with an upgrade of its own the Eclipse 550.

SUMMARY Within the preceding paragraphs we have touched upon several of the key attributes that business jet operators value. However, there are often other qualities such as service and support that factor in a buying decision, but which are beyond the scope of this article. The Citation Mustang business jet has its advantages at its price-point - so those operators in the market should find the preceding comparison of value. Our expectations are that the Citation Mustang will continue to do very well in the pre-

www.AvBuyer.com

owned market for the foreseeable future, but it’s worth keeping a watch out for how the new aircraft market develops. The entire story of the Entry Level market has been remarkable as it now exceeds the 1,000 aircraft delivery mark.

WORLD AIRCRAFT SALES MAGAZINE – July 2014

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

THE AVIATION LEADERSHIP ROUNDTABLE

The Glass Is Half-Full have reported over the course of the last year on the segment of our fleet that is not only ‘aging’, but really aging. I refer to the fleet of old Challengers, Citations, Falcons and Learjets. I have observed that this segment could be currently owned and operated by their last owner. Once finished with, the prospect of these airplanes finding re-sale homes may prove problematic, and weighing a plane may have a new meaning beyond a Part 135 requirement and prove more to be a method of valuation. I do think that there is a story to tell that shows the glass for some of these aircraft to be half-full, however! In fact if I am correct it is a big half-full glass for the entire industry. Allow me to explain… We recently had just such an aircraft to sell. It was an older Citation, and as we looked at the airplane and worked to create a benefits statement about it we began to understand who would be the likely buyer: It would be someone who would not be impacted by not upgrading for the nearfuture regulatory avionics requirements such as ADS-B Out or FANS, etc. The prospective owner would be someone seeking to fly in a regional environment who would not require those modifications. Next we looked at available engine times prior to overhauls (in this case about 900 hours). We considered pedigree and records, and all of that was in fine shape. So we priced the airplane according to the current market comparables, as well as our own judgment of the market for this type of airplane. The Citation did not ‘fly off of the shelf’, but within a fairly short selling period we got an acceptable offer and sold the aircraft. So, why all the half-full talk? Well, as indicated above, there just might be one more sale left in these old aircraft. After all, there is no reason to equate old with unsafe. Even much newer airplanes if not maintained or piloted correctly can be problematic. So why not use this very low entry-level aircraft segment to attract what is becoming a more robust first-time buyers’ market? That is what I mean by a ‘half-full’ view. Not only will the sale of these aircraft invigorate the market segment, but as I have

With all of this said, there is still life for these airplanes for possibly that one first-time buyer. written before the sale of an aircraft to a firsttime buyer means that pilots are hired, hangar space is leased, insurance policies are sold, fuel is sold and brokers are engaged. As you can see, it is really a very positive ‘snowball’ that starts rolling down the hill. Now back to the reality of this segment of the fleet. As mentioned, we needed to build a benefits statement that embraced and did not ignore the reality of the aircraft. How would we set it apart from the over 90 other Citations that were ‘for sale’ at that time? This airplane had approximately 900 hours remaining until engine overhauls with a cost of possibly $600,000 or more. Thus, I would assume, anyone buying this age and condition of airplane would not be planning to perform those engine overhauls which would create an even greater investment in it. I believe that when a buyer comes into an arena like this, where the aircraft segment does not have engine programs, one of the most obvious benefits against price is how much time they have left on the engines before overhaul? This can be equated to years of operation (before the aircraft will no longer have a value, based on traditional operational residual value). The bottom line is that any airplane with more remaining hours until overhaul will sell first, for a higher price. It’s really simple: Someone might invest in a paint job or some interior refurbishment, but as these airplanes reach the end of their www.AvBuyer.com

skyline the real value is more about available airframe or engine life. Large airframe inspections or major gear overhauls in the near-term work negatively against what would already be low pricing. With all of this said, there is still life for these airplanes for possibly that one first-time buyer. Getting into aviation ownership has never been more affordable. Whoever used the word ‘affordable’ in the same sentence as aviation? Well, I just did...! As we start to see and feel a recovery in transactions we are starting to see the first-time buyer return in numbers not seen since the downturn starting in 2008. Obviously the buyer’s confidence is being stirred by the low pricing, but do not mistake my use of the word ‘recovery’. Prices are still very depressed, and will never come back to pre-downturn numbers. What I am starting to see, however, is a slowing of the percentage of downward pricing and an uptick in transactions. This is obviously a very positive sign. To summarize, there is still lower-pricing, but there are more transactions - and there is a renewed interest in the right, better, older aircraft on the market at the right price. Just when we were ready to say goodbye to these older aircraft, it appears that it’s time to look at the glass again - it is half full. ❯ Jay Mesinger is the CEO and Founder of Mesinger Jet Sales.

o everything there is a season and a time for change; change that includes the inevitable: a slow, perceptible, measurable gain in the pre-owned market for business turbine aircraft. Growth, in other words… Growth is occurring at many levels of Business Aviation. The recent First Quarter numbers from the General Aviation Manufacturers Association (GAMA) pointed toward a market-recovery trend with deliveries of new jets and piston aircraft up 11.9 and 21.4 percent, respectively (full coverage in our June edition, p94). Propjets, conversely, declined – despite gains in King Air deliveries posted by the Beechcraft segment of Textron Aviation. The Cessna segment of Textron enjoyed a gain in jet sales but a decline in piston sales, while the high-performance singles of Cirrus and Diamond both showed solid gains; particularly at Diamond, with a 76-percent increase in aircraft deliveries. The picture among the pre-owned fleet holds some more-complex elements, however, with two conflicting, and overarching trends seemingly at work: • First, inventories are shrinking irrespective of weight category; sales of preowned business-turbine aircraft are also happening more quickly. • Second, prices continue to decline – incrementally, but they’re declining in spite of shrinking inventory and growing demand.

T

Meanwhile, the US economy contracted in the ugly weather of the first quarter (a miniscule 1.0 percent), but in the months since growth has rebounded, unemployment declined, GDP grew, and profits grew as Wall Street recorded some new high-close marks in early June.

DYSFUNCTIONAL CAPITALISM The usual mechanics of capitalism seem mired in dysfunction, at least in the realm of the preowned business-turbine aircraft. Declining inventories would normally be expected to push up prices. The bottom line is, however, that economists expect robust growth numbers for the second quarter, with continued improvements in the economy (including a rare sign of growth in wages) where it can spur the giant engine of the developed-world's economies: consumer spending. Those gains appear to be in progress, but it's not showing as much in demand for business turbine aircraft. Such growth seems constrained not by tight finances, expensive money or struggling profits, but by companies' unwillingness to incur new debt or spend Advertising Enquiries see Page 8

much of the large cash reserves many of them seem to be hoarding. Even the financial institutions seem bent on helping move the preowned market toward healthier activity levels.

STILL A CUSTOMERSATISFACTION GAME Janine Iannarelli of Texas-based Par Avion sees potential gains afoot. Today's interest in small, pre-owned, relatively recent production business jets valued between $2 million and $4 million remains positive, she explained. Demand growth in the U.S. right now exceeds demand in the European Community countries, which makes some airplanes a stronger attraction in North America than Europe, Iannarelli added. “We’ve counseled our European clients on the repositioning of their aircraft - in particular if it is a popular Cessna Citation CJ2 and CJ3 to the United States so as to help facilitate the sale of their airplanes.” As part of its business services, Par Avion assists its European clients in the relocation process and provides oversight of the airplane while Stateside. Iannarelli also advocates for her home state, urging owners to ferry their aircraft to Texas for upgrades before sales, noting that “most major business aircraft manufacturers have a presence in Texas so it’s easy to address maintenance or cosmetic needs within one State.” She added one more boost for the Lone Star State quoting its own info on how the cost of doing business is lower in Texas than many other states.

FOUNDATIONS OF A REBOUND In the months of 2014 so far, a number of aircraft finance institutions signaled their expanded range of finance interests. They started promoting underwriting loans for older business turbine aircraft - an approach at odds with the dominant view of the past five years. But what was one financier's ‘junk jet’ in years past is today another's money-making investment. Today, multiple financiers again promote loans on aircraft 10, 20 and 30-plus years, based less on a broad guideline and more on a narrow, focused survey of the aircraft in play and the client signing the contract. While bankers and lenders never completely abandoned financing older aircraft, they only did so with larger-than-normal down-payments, shorter-than usual payback terms, and above-average interest demands. Today's more-open finance market marks a return to more-typical terms for down payment, length of the loan and interest rate charged – away from the almost-punitive terms. From all appearances, the combination ❯ of more-inclusive, lower-cost lending and WORLD AIRCRAFT SALES MAGAZINE – July 2014

of this to continue - with those opportunistic sellers turning back to the pre-owned market to carry them through to replacing that nowsold new jet. The factories will be happy to build them another. “In some cases the payday exceeds the price difference, thanks to tax benefits for the original operator – but only if the airplane goes into service long enough to qualify. Some will sell the bonus depreciation as part of the asking price, too.” Another broker from the Upper Midwest contributed: “Right now three of our clients want us to find them a G500, G550, or - if we can make the money work - a G650. Good luck with that!” Other brokers reported the same problems – but for a new Falcon 7X; a Challenger 604; and etc... Said the Upper Midwest broker, “The easiest thing for us to fulfill right now is the need for a Citation – a single-pilot Citation gets a bit more complicated, but not much.” The East Coast broker noted, “Too few seem interested in what we actually have available while too many want what so many want that we can't find enough to go around – and that's when things get ridiculously expensive.”

WHERE TO NEXT? increased interest in using business aircraft is having part of the expected effect. And they'll still welcome above-average down-payments and shorter terms – if that's what you prefer.

LEANER PICKINGS AVAILABLE The interesting thing about a so-called “drought” in pre-owned business-aircraft sales is that it tends to swell the pool of aircraft available for purchase – as in, actively ‘for sale’. Real droughts shrink pools and water supplies until the return of normal precipitation – even a bit above normal, but when sales drought conditions end, pools tend to shrink. According to numerous analysts, that shrinkage is happening. In early May, JETNET revealed a 1% drop in the pool of pre-owned jets ‘for sale’ and a 0.1% decline in the pool of pre-owned propjets actively on the market. Transactions grew in the first quarter, up 3.1%, sending the percentage of aircraft available ‘for sale’ to one of the lowest levels in nine years. Prices paid declined, too, with the average asking price down 11.6% for jets, and off 29.4% for propjets. And while jets sold faster than a year ago – shorter by about 2.5 months – propjets went the opposite direction, on average needing 3.5 months more time to sell. Some other reports noted that March produced higher asking prices than February; that the quarter declined when measured against last

year and, as noted above, prices paid did not hold up.

If you talk to market analysts and economists, a degree of puzzlement emerges when Business Aviation takes center stage in the discussion.

BUYERS AND SELLERS LAY CLAIM

The ‘buyer's market’ that has been the Light and Medium Jet segments appear to be fading, even though the inventory available remains robust. Conversely, the super mid-size, largecabin and larger Businessliner segments seem to be slipping away from the ‘seller's market’ label of the past several years. Nevertheless, the large-cabin jets remain the seller's choice (although less so than last year, when operators caused buzzes selling off just-delivered jets at a 10-percent or 12-percent premium. As one broker quipped to World Aircraft Sales Magazine, “An operator can do a lot with a one-week windfall of $5 million, $6 million or more.” We saw some of this practice before the recession, although “It's a bit less rampant than before the recession,” the Midwest broker continued. Back then ‘owners’ picked up a quick buck by selling delivery positions for jets they never intended to keep. “It was pure speculation that paid off for practically everyone who cashed in before 2008. Some got caught, though.” “These days”, noted a West Coast dealer, “the deals are for the airplane itself, not the contract and delivery slot. Similarly, the paydays are proportionally larger.

• •

The economy is growing, solidly (although not yet robustly), and private and charter flying seem to be increasing. Jobs are being created, and people are getting hired. Corporate profits remain in record territory, and have been for a couple of years. The stock market-recovery is complete and markets continue to edge into record territories. American companies in particular hold cash reserves beyond any past normal level.

So with all of these solid, positive financial arrows aimed upward, why do business aircraft sales remain sluggish? Explanation can be found in all five of those above bullet points. That economic growth, according to economists' consensus, isn't putting more money into the pocket of the main body of consumers who drive the American economy, with growth in wages and benefits barely ahead of the inflation rate. Still, the companies are hiring more people – who, for those returning to the workforce, means paying off debt rather than spending large. Aircraft Index see Page 4


Dealer Broker Mkt Update April14_Gil WolinNov06 23/06/2014 15:51 Page 4

And with companies able to reap profits in that environment – increased worker efficiency is the main explanation – many feel no need to upgrade their lift while others cannot really gain any benefit from the tax benefits of late, so they continue to fly what they own, upgrading systems as feasible. The silver lining seems to shine among those who left Business Aviation use or previously considered it – but didn't follow through with the recession upon them. The Midwest broker tried to wrap up his thinking this way: “The best news is businesses increasingly need to travel, again; some of them are coming back to private aircraft...most of the old stigma is gone – forever, we hope. At the end of the day, a business aircraft can only get more attractive because the airlines continue to focus on a cut-to-grow business model – suicidal though that sounds.” And the airlines' reputations and practices, he winked, remain the best recruiting tools Business Aviation could ever expect.

PRE-OWNED A/C SALES TRENDS

Pre-Owned Aircraft Sales Trends We’re not forecasting a turnaround or recovery... We are in the middle of one! by Fletcher Aldredge very Saturday morning at my local airport pilots of just about every sort gather for coffee, to swap tales, and to complain about the Government. After one recent gathering I decided to walk down the flight line, because to paraphrase one of the Blue Collar Comedy Tour guys, ‘Once you’ve seen one airplane you pretty much want to see them all.’ About half way down the line, I could see a man messing about with a Piper Cherokee. He was surrounded by cleaners, waxes and lots of rags. It was clear he wanted me to stop and talk. He practically posed by the cowling and beamed a, “Perfect flying weather, isn’t it?!” He was eager to share his life story and more importantly to show me his airplane. Decades ago he earned his private license with hopes of becoming a professional pilot. Marriage, kids

E

and a mortgage put his flying dreams on hold. He had just purchased the Cherokee 140 days ago and was clearly ecstatic to be in the air again. I’ve been fortunate enough to witness the delivery of numerous multi-million dollar, factory-new, turbine aircraft. Yet, I have never seen any owner as proud as that Cherokee pilot. We can all talk about the tremendous time savings, safety and security of everything from Beech Bonanzas to Gulfstreams, but never underestimate the importance of pride-of-ownership. To borrow the famous words from Wind in the Willows and bend them to our purposes: ‘…there is nothing – absolutely nothing – half so much worth doing as simply messing about in airplanes’.

PISTON SINGLES AND TWINS In the recent quarter the Vref Light Single www.AvBuyer.com

Index edged up slightly. Complex Piston Singles were mostly flat. Hot spots included GFC700-equipped Cessna 172s and 182s, and many of these excellent trainers are being exported. Cross-country machines like Beech Bonanzas, Cessna Corvalis and Cirrus SR22s also continue to be active. Piston Twin acquisition costs remain in the ‘steal’ range, but operating costs keep this market flat. Small, growing companies should not ignore the utility and value in the Twin Cessna and P-Baron markets.

TURBOPROPS Steady and stable are words that best describe the turboprop market. That’s no surprise when you look at Table A. For more than a year, availability has been well below the proverbial 10% mark. No red flags here. If demand kicks up a notch, prices could come roaring back. Aircraft Index see Page 4

JETS Many jet brokers report activity has never been better. That’s a good thing because prices have never been better. We predict buyers in today’s market are going to look awfully smart in about a year. We have not seen anything with an uptrend, but several markets are heating up. Challenger 604s have been one of the most downtrodden airplanes of this recession. Now, bargain pricing has made the 604 an absolutely brisk market. The Citation Sovereign, Falcon 2000 and 900 are also attracting lots of buyers. Are we moving in the right direction? You bet we are! Less than a year ago, sixteen airplanes in this study were above the 10% mark. Now less than half (eleven) linger above 10% (Table B). Another piece of good news: For the first time since early 2008, the Vref Large Jet Index is not down – it’s flat. One quarter Advertising Enquiries see Page 8

Fast Facts Good news! Inventory not building! After a few good quarters, availability grows Now that’s a turnaround! Supply still exceeds meagre demand Moving in the right direction Stable pricing but no shortage Much improved Inventory bumps up, but still OK A good value for a twin-engine fanjet Turned into a good market, finally Very active in the recent quarter Late models improved, early models not Very active. Cheap models may be gone Look for these to thin out as activity grows Availability up, but can prices go any lower? Low priced G400s not helping GIVSP market Late models flat. Good buys in early models Availability swells, but well below 10% Good plane. Stagnant market. Mercifully flat Buyers have got a few steals here Underappreciated. Could be a buzz-kill Endured some tough times, recovered well Can’t believe it’s still a buyers’ market Low prices got a bunch sold

does not a trend make, however we think some airplanes may have slipped well below fair market value. This may be causing a few sellers to say, ‘It’s cheaper to keep her’.

IN THE MIDDLE OF IT Remember “The Boy Who Cried Wolf” from Aesop’s Fables? Well, starting as early as 2009, so many have proclaimed a turnaround is near that the villagers may have stopped listening. I just want to make it clear we are not forecasting a turnaround or recovery. We are already in the middle of one! That’s right. In the past we have gauged a recovery by the widespread price increases. We can’t do that anymore. Why? As we have documented previously, General Aviation has evolved. The good old days are gone forever. One group of buyers or sellers can no longer move a market up or down. Trade is www.AvBuyer.com

not centered in one region or country. Instead, our marketplace spans the globe. Brokers and bankers, buyers and sellers operate in virtually every country with electricity. Very simply, airplanes and helicopters are bought and sold only at prices the market will bear. Rising prices may be less important than activity when determining the health of today’s market. This global market will always have its scary influences. Ukraine and sanctions against Russia are some of the latest. Never again will our engine be firing on all cylinders at the same time. Fortunately, this global economy is one colossal engine, with lots of cylinders – more than enough to keep this industry flourishing well into the future – and we still believe General Aviation’s best days are yet to come. ❯ More information from www.vrefonline.com WORLD AIRCRAFT SALES MAGAZINE – July 2014

ADS-B DEPLOYMENT

Accelerated Developments: US ADS-B Network Complete - Operations Growing. by Dave Higdon ometimes an advance so suddenly - and somewhat unexpectedly - progresses aviation in a way that it’s impossible to miss. Occasionally, however, significant advances pass almost unnoticed, in part because they are almost invisible as an element of something larger and, despite their significance, have little visible impact at least in the short-term. So it passed in midApril when the Federal Aviation Administration announced completion of the ground network built to support Automated Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast (ADS-B). The installed network consists of 634 ground stations and their connected network. That ADS-B system backbone is connected, operating, and already quietly supporting the ongoing progress toward transitioning to the coming all-NextGen Air Traffic Management. In a nutshell, NextGen uses an aircraft's self-reported precision position to track them. The dominant position source used for ADSB is GPS refined and corrected through SBAS – Space-Based Augmentation Systems. The US calls its SBAS ‘WAAS’ (Wide-Area Augmentation System). WAAS became operational more than a decade ago in late 2003. While the backbone build out is significant, its status remains operationally invisible to even those already equipped with ADS-B

S

equipment. ADS-B Out becomes mandatory on January 1, 2020 for aircraft that would today use Mode C/S transponders to give ground radar something more than a primary target. The number of aircraft with ADS-B Out installed and functional was cited in April as about 3,700. Even by rounding that up to 4,000, it still leaves tens of thousands needing to be equipped – out of about 200,000 private aircraft. Meanwhile, FAA already employs the ground-station system; in some regions the controllers are in transitional mode with ADS-B-based service integrated with groundradar-based surveillance. Of the 230 ATC facilities across the country, 100 currently use ADS-B to separate traffic concurrently with traditional Mode C responses to groundbased secondary surveillance radar. Completing the ground network allows the FAA to continue expanding the load carried by ADS-B as the number of participating aircraft grows ahead of the 2020 compliance deadline. But not all has been overshadowed among the FAA's most-recent good news on ADS-B. The FAA also made a lot of operators happy by announcing that the agency recently simplified the application and certification process to document an aircraft as ADS-B Out-compliant for operations outside the US. ❯ www.AvBuyer.com

ADS-B DEPLOYMENT STATES OF CONFUSION As the roll-out of ADS-B services continues, the need to participate will increase as older ATC system hardware comes offline. Long before the ADS-B Out mandate takes effect in the US most of the rest of the world will be managing its airspace via ADS-B and the network of ground and satellite-based systems enabled to eventually provide oceanic coverage with far better precision than before. The faster pace of ADS-B adoption in other nations meant ever-more international operators faced requirements for compliance documentation in order to operate in the ADS-B system (and the approach options it brings) of those sovereign nations. The process of applying for, and acquiring that certificate (and the expanded need to possess the documentation) started creating a bind for a growing number of operators facing a labyrinthine FAA approval-documentation process. In the US, LPV approaches (lateral precision with vertical guidance) already outnumber the old gold-standard ILS approaches. The LPV and several other GPS-based non-precision approaches exist thanks to WAAS. These expanded GPS-based procedures predominantly serve runway ends previously unserved. Outside the US the count of new SBASenabled instrument approaches continues to grow. But some confusion arose recently about the legality of US-registered, WAAS-equipped aircraft to fly those approaches and even to be monitored via their 21st Century ADS-B Out link (versus mid-20th Century Mode-something-transponder-based secondary surveillance radar). The bad news? Outside the US, Part 91 operators need an FAA-issued LOA to be legal in the ADS-B systems in use abroad. But there's good news, too. With increasing numbers of business-turbine aircraft benefiting from new approach capabilities through WAAS GPS, operators traveling internationally increasingly see those approach options available outside the US. First, most of the nations involved say they'll not “ground” or launch enforcement actions should a ramp check reveal the aircraft lacks such an LOA. But they're going to want you to have it the next time. Second, the inter-operability of US ADS-B is assured in the other participating countries – among them, Australia, Canada, England, France, New Zealand and a host of other countries that years ago started using 1090ESbased ADS-B for part, or all of their air-traffic surveillance systems. As their systems progress, approaches such as the Lateral Precision with Vertical Guidance bring an Instrument Landing System-type precision to new runway ends – without the installation costs and maintenance expense of that gold-

PART 91 LOA APPLICATION If this were an Independence Day promotion, the FAA would be heard boasting about the 90-percent off reduction to the agency's application for an SBAS/ADS-B Out letter of authorization – LOA. The announcer would make a huge deal of the reduction – to a mere 20 simpler pages, from about 200, more-confusing, more-complex pages. There would follow the disclaimer, streaming across the bottom of your screen while a hushed announcer reads in a hurried voice... “LOA's not required of US-registered aircraft with FAA-approved WAAS and ADS-B Out installations while operating within the territorial airspace of the United States; operations using ADS-B Out in other countries' airspace may require an LOA for participation; groundwww.AvBuyer.com

ing not practiced but remains a legal option. Your mileage may vary.” Those are all good points – particularly for the majority of US-registered, ADS-B Outequipped aircraft that fly solely domestically. How is that possible? There is, after all, the International Civil Aviation Organization's (ICAO) Standards and Recommended Practices call for aircraft to document their ability to use approaches dependent on SBASlevel navigation. Most nations enforce that particular SARP requiring airworthiness authorities to issue LOAs for their ADS-B Outapproved operators. Well, all but the US, which filed an exception to that SARP with ICAO. So what gives? The FAA, in its wisdom, saw a different approach to allowing ADS-B Out participants into the system: File the exception with ICAO and free operators from that LOA requirement when the aircraft boasts SBAS GPS navigation capabilities using appropriately TSO'd systems. That exception also ❯ frees most foreign operators – when flying in Aircraft Index see Page 4

ADS-B DEPLOYMENT US airspace. Nonetheless, most of their home nations require domestically-registered aircraft to hold the LOA… but not here.

US PROGRESS PICKS UP What does the completion of all 634 ground stations mean to operators moving into ADS-B equipment? From many perspectives, the completion of the network holds as much significance as the completion of the WAAS itself back in in 2007, when the last of 25 ground stations, the stationary WAAS satellites, the orbiting GPS constellation and the network that ties it all together was certified and operational. Consider the following pieces of information about WAAS: •

The Wide Area Augmentation System (WAAS) uses the network of precision ground stations to provide corrections to the GPS navigation signal; The network, with each ground-reference station's position precisely surveyed, strategically covers the US and some over lapping territory ranging from Alaska, Hawaii, and Puerto Rico, Canada and Mexico; The data collected from GPS satellites is processed to collected error information and a message is developed and sent to correct any errors in the satellite signal; These correction messages are then broadcast through communication satellites to the airborne GPS receiver using the same frequency as GPS.

The operational-value equation of WAAS GPS rests on these abilities: First, an IFR-certified, IFR-installed GPS unit provides the pilot with the option to descend to an LNAV (or straight-in) approach, as well as GPS-defined circling approaches; WAAS GPS with BaroVNAV may also descend to LNAV/VNAV minima; WAAS GPS receivers can descend to LNAV, LNAV/VNAV and LPV minima. Aviation authorities around the world have embraced the system in part because of the operational flexibility it offers and the lower operating and maintenance costs they expect to realize by turning off older, more maintenance-thirsty technologies. They've started already with Non-Directional Beacons (NDBs) in the US. Some parts of the world will continue to use NDBs until their fleets are equipped to use WAAS GPS (which will require some ground support in the form of reference stations), and that need ignores the requirement for ground networks to support ADS-B. But the operations in bush country will be happy ‘settling’ for a functional set of WAAS-GPS-based options. Even without the precision level of an LPV approach, third-world operations can still benefit significantly from WAAS GPS.

WHAT'S NEXT FOR US ADS-B SERVICES? Before all this finally comes together into the seamless, fully integrated and full-functioning air-traffic-management network envisioned, the ground-station network must be integrated, tested and declared operational. The FAA still has a way to go, but fully expects to make that declaration a year or two ahead of the 2020 ADS-B Out deadline. There's plenty left to do. As of April this year, 100 of the FAA's 230 air traffic facilities nationwide were using the ADS-B network to separate participating traffic. The FAA's goal is to have all 230 facilities connected and operational by the start of 2019, allowing a year (hopefully more) to fine-tune the system before the deadline requiring all aircraft operating in controlled airspace to be ADS-B Out compliant. As of May 2014, the industry seemed less concerned at a potential failure by the FAA to meet its deadlines than it is that operators will www.AvBuyer.com

fail to meet theirs. There remains a lot of aircraft yet to comply – a large percentage of them older, but still active business-turbine aircraft. Since the first TSOs were issued and equipment began to be readily available, the rate of aircraft owners updating their ships has been so slow that concerns are arising shop capacity will be unable to handle a last-year rush. Recent figures put at about 30,000 the number of US-registered aircraft already ADS-B Out-compliant – with tens of thousands still to go. Writing in a recent Aviation Week & Space Technology article, NextGen GA Fund managing partner Michael Dyment said that ADS-B Out upgrades need to exceed 30,000 annually to convert the GA fleet by 2020. That's about 120 per day, up from 100 per day in an FAA estimate from three months ago. If the FAA meets its deadlines – as, surprisingly, it has at multiple milestones so far – arguments urging delaying the deadline may be a really hard sell. Aircraft Index see Page 4

SMS & SMALL FLIGHT OPS - PART 1

Scaling an SMS: Establishing Safety Management Systems in Small Operations (Part 1). by Mario Pierobon ith new European regulations on air operations becoming mandatory by October this year the whole of the European Business Aviation community is in a final push to establish compliance with new management system requirements – namely, to establish Safety Management Systems (SMS). This is not a priority specific to Europe, however, as the publication of ICAO Annex 19 on SMS has put pressure on the whole global aviation community to implement SMS. One of the peculiarities of Business Aviation is that it is characterised by the presence of several small operators. “The risk you run with the introduction of SMS,” observes aviation safety consultant Emanuele Ghiroldi, “is to overload small operators - whether they are complex or non-complex - with a structure for safety management that has no justification in the size and complexity of operations.” The scaling of an SMS to a small operation is indeed a significant issue, so much so that several small European operators have asked

W

98

WORLD AIRCRAFT SALES MAGAZINE – July 2014

for extensions from their local authorities to comply with SMS requirements. The relative complexity of an SMS (and thus the more difficult adaptability to a small operation with relatively few employees) lies in the fact that it has more components in comparison with those of a more traditional air operator (quality) management system. Much has already been written with regards to defining SMS - literature abounds within the industry – so the following will form the first in a three-part series to provide some guidance to the reader on how to successfully scale an SMS to reach full and practical implementation within a flight department. The functional model that will be followed to guide SMS implementation is the Input-Process-Output (IPO) model.

MANAGEMENT BUY-IN Top-down management buy-in with regard to SMS implementation is of utmost importance regardless of the size of the operator, but it is www.AvBuyer.com

even more essential when the organisation is small. “Think of the fairly wide-spread situation among helicopter and executive operators, where the accountable manager is often also the owner, a pilot, and a technician,” Ghiroldi illustrates. “Although in the company there are other figures dedicated to the management of other sectors (airworthiness, maintenance, etc.), it is evident that the presence of the owner/manager assumes a considerable influence among the staff. How could the company’ SMS unfold if the owner/manager were not fully convinced of the necessity and usefulness of SMS?” When management is safety-sensitive, buyin is relatively easily obtained by informing them of their accountabilities. Successful implementation depends on their displayed ownership of an SMS. Infrequently, however, it can also be the case that management is not safety-sensitive, or perhaps considers safety as not being part of its accountability. Under such circumstances safety practitioners have only Aircraft Index see Page 4


SMSJuly14_Pre-Owned Sales Jan06 24/06/2014 09:54 Page 2

one way forward to establish proper SMS implementation; to instigate ‘fears’ in the minds of management personnel. Research in behavioural economics (a discipline that considers elements of psychology in the study of economics) has demonstrated that people become more receptive when they are brought into the ‘loss domain’ – e.g. when a loss is prospected. Instead of focussing on the possible benefits of SMS implementation (the ‘gain domain’), here SMS project leaders make their business case for SMS implementation by focussing on all that is wrong within their organizations; the high-risks and operational challenges that are confronted; and the dollarcosts associated to these risks and challenges. Only once these fears are instilled as reality in the minds of management, and SMS presented as the solution to prevent future losses, can management buy-in be obtained.

PERFORMANCE AWARENESS One component of an SMS is hazard identification and risk management, the successful function of which relies on employees critically observing operations and reporting weaknesses. Small organizations (particularly single-pilot operations) have the peculiarity that much of the information feeding the risk register of an SMS will be based on self-observation. Essentially, much will depend on how well operatives learn to become critical observers of their own practices and behaviours at work. Just as senior management buy-in is essential with regard to SMS implementation, frontline employees must be motivated to critically observe their performance at work. This occurs when a ‘just’ culture is at work (a culture in which people are incentivised to submit air safety reports without fear of discipline or recrimination when errors are reported in good faith). Human-factors training – which covers issues of human performance and limitation, and crew resource management (even for single pilot operations) can be valuable tools to increase operatives’ self-awareness at work.

Small organizations (particularly single-pilot operations) have the peculiarity that much of the information feeding the risk register of an SMS will be based on self-observation.

LEARNING TO MANAGE It is inevitable that SMS implementation will bring in some additional complexity, and that the management system - which for a small organisation up to now may have been just an informal one – will need to become more structured. A more defined managerial structure for a small team of people requires a cultural shift of personnel from a business management mind-set (whereby the focus is almost exclusively on actual service delivery) to a mind-set whereby management and planning becomes a part of the duties of personnel. For this shift to happen, people must be willing to develop Advertising Enquiries see Page 8

and use additional project management along with other soft skills, on top of the technical skills which are prerogatives of their actual work. We have focussed on the main inputs needed for SMS implementation in a small flight department within this article, but needless to say that on top of the inputs detailed, an absolute pre-requisite is the knowledge of what an SMS is. Next month, we will focus our attention on the peculiarities of SMS implementation within a small team and consider how to effectively blend Management Buy-In, Performance Awareness and Project www.AvBuyer.com

Market Indicators

Boutsen Aviation noted an upswing in the pre-owned market, and since the successful transaction of a Falcon 7X at EBACE in May announced the sale of three additional aircraft - a Gulfstream G550, Cessna Citation CJ2 and Eurocopter AS355N. “If you look beyond inventory numbers to analyze the market deeper, you will notice the number of transactions started to increase in early 2013 and continues to do so now,� Thierry Boutsen, president, Boutsen Aviation told World Aircraft Sales Magazine. “The average selling prices for some models are still going down, but others are stabilizing - and at the same time there’s a slight decrease in inventory. Are we at a turning point? It’s too early to say, but the trend is clearly there to track.� MI www.boutsen.com

In-Service Aircraft Technical Condition & Price An Asset Insight Index analysis of 76 fixedwing turbine models, covering 1,539 aircraft listed for sale as of April 30, 2014, evidenced a marginal improvement in Overall Market asset quality, coupled with a slight (1.1%) Ask Price increase... Maintenance Condition (ATC Score): This improved by 5.9 AI2 basis points, raising the average Asset Technical Condition Score (Asset Insight’s rating relative to each aircraft’s optimal maintenance condition) to 5.428 from March’s 5.369 - comfortably above the MidTime/Mid-Life 5.000 level on the ATC Score scale of -5 to 10.

EXPOSURE TO PRICE RATIO (“ETP RATIO�)

Financial Condition (ATFC Score): Average Asset Technical Financial Condition Score (grading scheduled maintenance events cost associated with the aircraft ATC Score) also improved by a nominal 2.1 AI2 basis, increasing to 4.894 (versus the previous month’s 4.873) and inching closer to the Mid-Time/Mid-Life 5.000 level (on the 0 to 10 ATFC Score scale).

MARKET OUTLOOK

Financial Exposure (ATFE Value): Average Asset Technical Financial Exposure Value (the aircraft’s accumulated maintenance financial exposure) was the only Asset Insight Index component not to show improvement, increasing nearly $27k and raising the average aircraft’s accrued maintenance expense to just over $1.3 Million. Large Jets managed to stay slightly ahead of Medium Jets in overall asset quality. Small Jets remained in third position, while Turboprop assets - although a bit improved over last month’s figures - still generated the lowest ratings.

Spread in the ratio of maintenance Financial Exposure to aircraft Ask Price (ETP Ratio) widened again this month, but the Overall Market average for the aircraft tracked decreased slightly, from 41.8% to 40.8%. Asset Insight considers anything over 40% to be an excessive ATFE Value in relation to the Aircraft Ask Price and, absent a change in asset mix, expects “value� (asset quality compared to ask price) to be negatively impacted until at least mid-summer - a time when major airframe maintenance is often conducted.

This month’s Overall Market Asset Insight Index, coupled with a slight (1.1%) Ask Price increase, provides generally positive news for both buyers and sellers. Large Jets offered good overall asset quality at Ask Prices below the group’s 12-month average – although average prices did increase to $16.39m versus last month’s $15.95m. Medium Jets demonstrated improved asset quality and a well-balanced Exposure to Price Ratio, primarily due to an Ask Price increase that, at $3.6m, reflects the group’s highest average Ask Price this year. Small Jets reflected average asset quality with relatively high maintenance exposure compared to Ask Price, but impressive price stability. Finally, Turboprops continued to register below-average asset quality, problematic financial exposure, and lower Ask Prices. MI www.assetinsightinc.com

BizAv Activity - Europe May saw a 17% increase on April’s Business Aviation flight activity, however, year-on-year (YOY) there were 2.2% fewer departures in May, and YTD the market is 0.6% below 2013 levels, observes WINGX. The latest monthly Business Aviation Monitor reveals that compared to last May the largest country market – France - lost 2.9% activity, with other significant markets such as Italy, Spain and Switzerland slipping back. The former 'growth stars', Russia, Ukraine and Turkey fell by up to 30%. There was some YOY country growth - notably in Germany and the UK - and also in smaller markets such as Portugal, Greece, Belgium and the Czech Republic. There was also strong growth in arrivals to Europe from North America and the Middle East. The turboprop and piston fleets both lost ground (not as much as business jet activity) down 2.3% overall, but acutely negative in Ukraine (-34%). Jet flights were up 70% in Portugal, due mainly to the Champions’ League Final. Intra-European flights fell, but domestic activity was up in leading markets such as Germany, UK and Switzerland. Flights to non-European destinations rose 9%. Meanwhile connections with North Africa, South America and India are well up YOY. Richard Koe, Managing Director of WINGX Advance concluded, “The combination of the EU’s uncertain economic recovery and the instability in its peripheral regions is continuing to impede any generalised recovery in Business Aviation activity. After some growth in Q1, Q2 is resembling the pattern of the last 18 months’ recession: a vibrant demand for ultra-long range aircraft; a migration of cost-conscious customers to VLJs; and in between, waning demand for the excess capacity of midsize and light jets”. MI www.wingx-advance.com

Flight Activity Summary US & Europe We’re not seeing any dramatic changes in flight activity, notes Avinode Managing Director Oliver King. In the US, activity is increasing slightly while European activity is dropping, especially when it comes to Light Jet usage. An aircraft category that is doing extremely well in both Europe and the US is Ultra-Long Range, with a year-over-year number of +10% in both regions. The US has been in slow - but constant recovery since 2009 while Europe has been struggling since the financial crisis. Route

BizAv Activity - US & Canada Reviewing May flight activity month-overmonth, flights increased from April to finish the period up 2.4% overall. All operational categories managed to post month-overmonth increases with the Part 135 segment posting the largest gain, up 3.6% from April. Part 91 and fractional flight activity posted increases of 1.7% and 2.0% respectively. Aircraft category results were up across the board with turboprop aircraft posting the largest monthly increase, up 6.0% from April. Small, mid-size and large cabin aircraft posted increases of 0.6%, 0.7% and 1.0% in that order. The largest single month-overmonth increase occurred in the fractional turboprop market which finished the month up 21.2% (attributable primarily to PC-12 operator PlaneSense). Reviewing year-over-year flight activity (May 2014 vs. May 2013), TRAQPak data indicates that May 2014 posted an increase of 1.9%. The results by operational category

showed an increase in the Part 135 segment, up 1.9% year-over-year. The fractional market posted an increase for the second month in a row, up 0.2% from May 2013 and the Part 91 market showed activity increasing 2.3% year-over-year. Flight activity by aircraft category was up for the jet market, but down for the turboprop market (ARGUS believes that the turboprop market is in the final month of the Avantair impact). Small cabin aircraft posted the largest year-over-year increase, up 4.7%. Large and mid-size cabin aircraft posted increases 4.3% and 2.3% in that order. The turboprop industry posted a year-over-year decrease of -1.6%. The largest growth for an individual segment occurred in the small cabin fractional market, with an increase of 30.6%; this marks the fifth month in a row that this segment has seen the largest growth year-over-year.

analysis indicates that business-related traffic is coming back in the states (NE region, for example) while Europe is still driven by leisure related traffic (Nice being a typical example) while London and Germany are all struggling. Although 2014 has started OK, Avinode is still concerned with the effect the Russia/Ukraine crisis will have on flight activity numbers. Age of Aircraft There are significant differences between requested age of aircraft in the US compared to Europe. In Europe, 9% of requests are for aircraft older than 20 years. That number is 41% in the US. The average age of all requested aircraft is almost twice as high in the US (18.2 years) compared to Europe (9.7 years).

www.AvBuyer.com

Mission Use The level of occupancy is between 48% and 55% on average (55% for Heavy Jets and 48% for Light Jets) according to data from 2013, and Avinode suggests this shows the number of seats is clearly not a deciding factor when chartering an aircraft. It’s not only passenger numbers that indicate airplanes aren’t being used to their full capacity. Avinode also sees it in the distance the aircraft are flying. Long-range aircraft are recommended for flights with a distance of +5,000 nautical miles, but in 2013 the actual average distance was 1,270 nautical miles, suggesting the planes are only using a fifth of their capacity. They’re not being used for the mission they were designed for. MI www.avinode.com

3 1Q 2014 Avionics Market Report

IBA Re-Examines BizJet Values around US$2.5m each year. So have high brand business jets values held up during these challenging times? In a few instances yes, those customers who can afford the ‘must have’ G650s for example. But based on the majority of the available business jets which include many that are five years old and more, such as G450s, G550s, Globals and BBJs, IBA would have to say no. “When you consider that a 2001 delivered Global Express would probably have cost the best part of US$43m in a pre-911 and credit crunch era, today that same aircraft would be doing well to attract a value of little more than US$17m. If you were to park a 1996 delivered GIV-SP alongside a recently delivered G450 many wouldn’t be able to tell the difference between the two. Yet one is probably still worth around US$36m, the other perhaps US$6.5m.” Does that mean business jets are poor investments? “Absolutely not, as leading experts such as Minsheng Financial Leasing will quickly point out,” concludes McDonald. “But IBA does not expect to see the same levels of business jet value buoyancy that were evident in 1997 and 2007. Times have changed and we suspect most industry observers within the corporate sector will agree.” MI www.ibagroup.com

MI www.aea.net

The International Bureau of Aviation (IBA) has taken another look at some of its longterm value forecasts, and with virtual unanimity, presents a more conservative view on how it depreciates business jets... “Due to relatively tight production numbers and therefore constrained supply, aircraft such as Boeing BBJ2, BBJ3 and Embraer Lineage 1000 appear to be holding well in terms of market value,” noted Jonathan McDonald, ISTAT Certified Appraiser & Senior Aviation Analyst, IBA. “We are less bullish on the smaller Boeing BBJ where much of the fleet is now over ten years old and therefore inherently quite heavily depreciated.” According to IBA, Gulfstream products make an interesting analysis. On the one hand, Gulfstream G650s appear to trade at premiums. Higher specifications help boost the values of Gulfstream’s flagship, but basically limited supply and a desirable aircraft means that UHNWIs are prepared to pay above list price either for a young used aircraft, or an earlier delivery slot. In contrast, IBA would probably value a more mature G450 (say 2006 model) at around US$17.5m. Considering that one of these aircraft probably cost around US$36m when new eight years ago - a time when customers were paying heavy premiums in a boom economy - that equates to losing

In the first three months of the year, total worldwide Business and General Aviation avionics sales amounted to more than $651 million, reflecting an 11.2 percent increase in sales compared to 1Q 2013 (more than $586 million), according to AEA. The dollar amount reported (using net sales price, not manufacturer's suggested retail price) includes all Business and General Aviation aircraft electronic sales (all component and accessories in cockpit/cabin/software upgrades/portables/noncertified aircraft electronics; all hardware (tip to tail); batteries; and chargeable product upgrades) from the participating manufacturers. The amount does not include repairs and overhauls, extended warranty or subscription services. Of the more than $651 million in total sales in 1Q, more than $330 million came from forward-fit (avionics equipment installed by airframe manufacturers during original production) sales and comprised 50.7 percent of total sales. Retrofit (avionics equipment installed after original production) sales amounted to more than $321 million (49.3 percent). The 1Q 2014 report marked the first time participating companies were asked to separate their total sales figures between North America (U.S. and Canada) and other international markets. According to the companies that participated in this breakdown, 62.9 percent of the sales volume occurred in North America, while 37.1 percent took place internationally.

Private Jet Market: Europe vs US Given that North America and Europe still represent over 90% of all Business Aviation flight activity, a side-by-side comparison – courtesy of Mark Twidell, PrivateFly - offers a fascinating insight into these key private jet markets… Although both regions have similar size economies, private jet flight activity in the US is 3.5 times bigger than Europe. This is down to how the US differs to Europe in terms of geography and airline connectivity as well as its culture and attitudes towards Business Aviation. US customers are flying again more readily post-recession, and the US market returned to growth at the end of 2013, whereas Europe remained slightly down (although Q1 2014 saw 3% growth). Fleet Size/Expansion Together, the US and Europe hold 77% of the global fleet. With 4.5 times the number of private jets registered in US, in 2013 the US took four times as many new deliveries of business jets and turboprop aircraft as Europe. Interestingly, it is Europe's fleet that is more utilised at 261 flights per aircraft per year, compared to the US at 207. Flight Peaks & Patterns A marked difference in ‘seasonality’ shows when monthly flight activity is compared. While Europe shows a strong annual summer peak (11% annual flights occur in July), hinting Europe's private jet fleet operates a higher proportion of leisure flights, the US is a much more sustained year-round market.

port is Paris Le Bourget, and its top airports are clustered more closely together. Geneva and Nice Cote D'Azur are the next busiest. In both regions, connectivity is king, with over ten times as many private jet airports compared to scheduled airlines.

Key Airports & Routes Teterboro is the busiest private jet airport in the world. With Van Nuys in LA the next busiest, activity in the US market seems more widespread. Europe’s busiest private jet air-

Pricing Comparative Although the most popular routes in each region are 50 minute flights, pricing is different. LA to Las Vegas costs 25% less on the same aircraft type as the top European city

pair of Milan to Rome. A Citation XLS will typically cost about €500 less hourly to fly en route in the US. Price of jet fuel, on average in the US, is more costly than in Europe ($5.20 per US gallon, versus $3.50 in Europe), and is also taxed in the US market for commercial flights. Overall in the US, relative private jet charter price savings come from a larger market and infrastructure; less bureaucracy; and lower crew and airport fees. MARK TWIDELL,

PRIVATEFLY Summary One common aspect of both markets is fragmentation. With thousands of aircraft operated by thousands of companies, both markets are heavily brokered. PrivateFly is integrated with over 7,000 aircraft worldwide and is bringing both Europe and the US (and other regions) together in one online, global marketplace. MI www.privatefly.com

Boeing According to Boeing Business Jets, it has outperformed the competition in the widebody market segment for private business jets, with widebody airplane orders now accounting for more than one-third of Boeing’s total VIP orders, as outlined by Steve Taylor, president, Boeing Business Jets.

It also has a tri-jet configuration that confers a number of benefits, especially for runway performance, external noise properties and maximum range. The company anticipates certification in or about 2021.

While Airbus acknowledges that some of its customers appreciate the challenge of making all the decisions required to completely outfit an aircraft, such as would be required for the fully customizable version of the ACJ319, there are others that don’t want to invest the time and effort.

BizAv Aircraft Review

Bombardier The achievement of key product development milestones on the Global 7000 and Global 8000 aircraft program have been announced by Bombardier, with the start of production and assembly of major structures for the first Flight Test Vehicle (FTV1) of the Global 7000 and Global 8000 aircraft program. Set to enter-into-service in 2016 and 2017

Cessna Milestones were announced at Cessna in the certification program of the new Cessna Citation Latitude. The FAA has granted a Type Inspection Authorization certificate and the first production unit has joined the flight test program. The TIA for the Latitude is a significant step forwards as it allows Cessna to begin

respectively, both jets will have the ability to reach more destinations nonstop than ever before. The Global 7000 will set the standard for a new category of large business jets with a range of 7,300nm, while the Global 8000 will be the world’s farthest-range business jet delivering 7,900nm. www.cessna.com

accumulating flight hours that will apply toward official certification. More than 60 flights and 130 hours have been flown in the Citation Latitude test program to date. Cessna engineers developed an all-new fuselage for the Citation Latitude. Certification for the mid-size jet is expected in the second quarter of 2015.

Daher-Socata Showcasing its latest TBM 900 at the recent Cannes AirShow on the French Riviera, Daher-Socata says its new turboprop has attracted significant attention among pilots, owners and operators with more than 47 orders. 15 TBM 900s have already been delivered to their customers as of May 31st. With a cruise speed of 330KTAS, the

Embraer Phenom success continues as Embraer announced that it has delivered the 500th Phenom unit (a Phenom 300). In the five and a half years the Phenom models have existed, they have been introduced into 37 countries and the airplanes have collectively accumulated more than 370,000 flight hours.

Piaggio The Avanti EVO, an upgrade of the Avanti twin turboprop, has been announced by Piaggio Aero. With redesigned engine nacelles, winglets, a reshaped front wing and five-blade composite Scimitar propellers, the EVO will provide better performance, enhanced safety features and greater passenger comfort compared to the Avanti II. It will 106

TBM 900 combines typical light jet speed, with operating costs of a single-engine turboprop. Nicolas Chabbert, Senior VP, Daher-Socata’s Airplane Business Unit commented, “The low noise level places the TBM 900 in the ‘quiet’ category, which is definitely key to access some sensitive airports, such as Cannes.”

www.embraerexecutivejets.com

The Phenoms are produced at Embraer's facilities in São José dos Campos, Brazil and Melbourne, Florida, and while Embraer has delivered about 300 Phenom 100s and 200 Phenom 300s, the Phenom 300 will likely surpass the Phenom 100 in deliveries as Embraer is currently shipping about twice as many of the larger Phenom.

also be significantly quieter externally. With the improved performance the EVO will climb 3 percent faster to its ceiling of 41,000 feet, and the range in standard configuration is 1,470nm, a 17-percent improvement. Piaggio has also introduced an optional configuration that extends the EVO’s range to 1,720nm. www.AvBuyer.com

THE PILOT SHORTAGE

‘Its Not Airline Flying’

Business Aviation’s Pilot-Hiring Advantage... But is it Enough? asks Dave Higdon Advertising Enquiries see Page 8

he looming pilot shortage is an aviation topic with legs that are exceeded only by debates about Amelia Earhart's ultimate fate. That topic currently outranks long-term concerns about the declining number of airports, the shifting state of pilot training and the graying of the existing pilot cadre. These topics are evergreen – they’re always on the radar. And they rarely move in the direction the aviation community desires them to - one that benefits aviation by building it. Military-trained pilots have supplied the raw human capital for aviation growth stretching back to World War I with an added boost from the nation's leaders who created a pool of thousands of freshly mined aviators in anticipation of World War II. That build-up came through for the nation again when America joined with the United Nations in Korea, and throughout supplied the seed customers of a civil aviation industry that is unrivaled globally. Today, however, military training supplies

T

www.AvBuyer.com

only a small percentage of the professional aviators needed to fly nearly 30,000 commercial airliners and almost the same number of business-turbine aircraft around the world. Further contributing to the feeling of a shortage is the ongoing decline in the total pilot population and a training pipeline that is not keeping up with pilot retirements or abandonment of active flying. And complicating the situation is Congress' 2010 pique of legislative emotion forcing the FAA to revise its requirements for entry-level, right-seat jobs to the same level as is mandatory to sit in the left seat. Tens of thousands of first-job candidates and ‘wouldbe’ graduates now face another year (or more) of training, and tens of thousands more dollars before they can qualify to compete for these jobs. First Officer-qualified candidates simply want to fly in jobs that pay enough to enable them to live, service their debt, and enjoy life. The airlines still get hundreds of candidates applying for each opening. But fewer are new, or willing to work for entry-level pay. ❯ WORLD AIRCRAFT SALES MAGAZINE – July 2014

THE PILOT SHORTAGE A BRAVE, UNREGULATED WORLD...

“Despite these easily documented differences, many a pilot sees no career flying outside an airline-captain's chair, however.”

130

WORLD AIRCRAFT SALES MAGAZINE – July 2014

The catalysts, in part, all originate at the airlines themselves, and in many ways due to the unintended consequences of deregulation: Management/Labor conflicts; airline bankruptcies and pension abrogation for retirees; seniority disputes in mergers; routes downsizing; long, laborious work days; disrupted sleep patterns; and the lowest blow of all family-hostile scheduling. Simply to qualify for this world now means more training and a low starting salary (regional First Officers can expect to start between $18,000 and $25,000). With regional carriers often forced to hire pilots also qualified for the right seat of a major (at $60,000 per year or more), airline schedules are suffering. Even at $60,000, a fresh program graduate may find it difficult to pay bills, eat and service the student debt. Business Aviation enters this competition with several significant advantages over the airlines – and, from the perspective of many pilots, one large disadvantage. The life; the pay; the benefits; and the demands: all point toward a career in which pilots log about onehalf to one-third the hours of their airline counterparts (350 to 500 hours). Work hours in general also tend to be less onerous, with many business pilots noting they generally enjoy weekends off. They tend to fly a greater variety of destinations, many of them far from the saturated airspace of Bravo Airspace hubs, and they tend to earn more. Despite these easily documented differences, many a pilot sees no career flying outside an airline-captain's chair, however. Once that may have been true, but it isn’t today according to one business jet pilot. “Now is a different game,” he elaborated during a conversation with two recent military retirees hungry for an airline cockpit job. “The biggest advantage private operators have when trying to hire qualified crew? They are not the airlines.” He easily rattled off his list of differences that he equates to competitive advantages on the side of www.AvBuyer.com

business flying. “There’s more variety; more control; fewer flight hours; more time at home; better pay and, in general, a better working environment where the Bosses respect their crew. The owner trusts their crew with their lives, their businesses, their customers and often their families. Aircraft owners have a stake in your abilities, just like airline ticket holders do – but with the knowledge that they hired their crew.” Yet as several organizations note, even if Business Aviation enjoys several advantages against the airlines, challengers to those advantages exist and they require effort to overcome.

THAT TOTAL-POPULATION PROBLEM... With today's imbalance between retirements and recruitments, the total pilot population can do nothing but shrink. Aviation started losing its pilot population decades ago and the shrinkage has continued with little change over time. The root population needs to grow for the subgroups to also expand – or else the community one day finds that the only newcomers are in some ab-initio program for an airline-cockpit position or in training for a business aircraft cockpit. Currently, however, the airlines seem blessed with an excess of bodies boasting at least the minimum requirements or, in many cases time enough to qualify for a captain's chair. But as the population has declined and the number of applicants-per-job increased, in contrast, the compensation for the entry-level airline jobs barely competes with jobs that don't require years of study. As a result, a fair number of prospects qualified for that regional or small-airline job opt not to apply. Even knowing they could be enhancing their logbooks, they also acknowledge that first they must pay the bills and eat. Consequently, prospects withdraw from contention – they move on, away from a cockpit job...and they don't look back.

THE KNOWLEDGE PROBLEM... “The issue I have with a business jet job is that those guys never go anywhere – and they don't make the big money. You've got to be a Captain, flying wide-body jets on long international flights to get into six figures,” one pilot told me in earnestness. In fairness, the young man already had four figures in his logbooks, most of those hours flying airliner-equivalent, international operations. Fortunately, he found something to keep him in the military and happy where he was headed. Another aviator acquaintance is glad he did move into Business Aviation. That opened up an outstanding First Office job that pays him high five figures for now, but will go into Aircraft Index see Page 4


The Pilot Shortage_Edit 24/06/2014 12:18 Page 3

THE PILOT SHORTAGE six when his company adds another largecabin, ultra-long-range jet in early 2015. As a matter of fact, entry-level business aircraft cockpit jobs pay better than most regional-airline captain's posts. So, all told, you’ll enjoy being at home more; less flying; more variety; better working conditions; and better pay. And international flying doesn't force the talent to relocate overseas. One expatriot pilot originally recruited by a major's regional division told us he was floored to learn that the prospective employer expected job candidates to pay for their own transition training before being hired, with no guarantee of hiring after successfully qualifying and clearing all the hurdles. “It was presented as something of a competition among the group of pilots in the class, and it encouraged some unwelcome behavior,” the ATP-qualified pilot told World Aircraft Sales Magazine. Happily he found “better work” and a “friendlier employer” flying turbine and jet aircraft into East Africa and the Middle East.

THE MUCH-TALKEDABOUT SOLUTION? The community's leaders acknowledge the problem; they talk up the solutions; and they try ideas - we must concede that. The ambition of once again having nearly 1 million Americans pilot-qualified holds huge appeal, and it's certainly a laudable goal. The country did it once, one association executive recently reminded me. And in the late 1970s American makers of General Aviation aircraft delivered an average of 15,000 new airplanes a year for the better part of a decade. Absent the political will to create and fund the programs needed, we should not hold our breath, however. The tax laws of the late 1960s through the late 1970s included an investment-tax credit that essentially committed the government to reimbursing buyers of the costs of “investing in” railroad boxcars, maritime barges and – yes, you got it – General Aviation aircraft when bought for a business. Consequently tens of thousands of airplanes were bought by individuals operating as a company that owned the airplane – and then claimed the tax credit that refunded the costs of the new airplane. That mushrooming of the pilot population through World War II began in Europe in the mid-1930s – in anticipation of the need that followed. In the US, the Civilian Pilot Training Program (CPTP) launched in 1938 to supplement the training of the US Army - President Franklin D. Roosevelt supported the CPTP's plan to train 20,000 civilian pilots a year because this would create a pool of potential military pilots that he believed the country would need soon. Advertising Enquiries see Page 8

In 1939 the Army had a total of only 4,502 pilots, including 2,007 active-duty officers, 2,187 reserve officers and 308 National Guard officers. The CPTP eventually operated at 1,132 colleges and universities, and 1,460 flight schools, and CPTP-trained pilots did well in further training at USAAF schools. Recording nearly 12 million flying hours, the CPTP trained 435,165 pilots from 1939 to 1944. Those pilot provided the manpower-base the nation needed through the 1940s and into the end of the 1960s. By the 1980s, the military pipeline was starting to slow at the same time civil flight training started its current decline. Rebuilding the pilot population to a level needed to support commercial and private aviation at levels both would like to see will take another program like the CPTP, many current aviation insiders believe. Saying so is out of fashion, however, because no one wants to be seen as “advocating an expensive government program,” one insider explained. Several efforts to encourage new student pilots have come and gone in the past 15 years. AOPA's latest move in that direction focuses on starting flying clubs to help reduce the costs of flying while EAA expanded its 20year-old Young Eagles program – an effort to fly young people age 7-17 into a similar program for adults. NBAA is proactive in encouraging young adults to embrace a career in Business and/or General Aviation, as a pilot or one of the other important support careers. But one observer schooled in the problem noted during a round-table discussion that absent a reversal in the shrinkage of the total pilot population, a shortage is an inevitability that will be answered by overseas competition. “Competition from China, India and South America isn't going away,” he explained. “The time may come when we're recruiting in those places the way they recruit here today.” One consensus came out of the discussion: The clock is ticking...

“...absent a reversal in the shrinkage of the total pilot population, a shortage is an inevitability that will be answered by overseas competition.”

Tri-Jets have earned a stellar reputation among owners and operators and usually command higher resale values than the competition. With efficient space management the Falcon 900 aircraft have a larger passenger seating area than the Gulfstream IV. These Tri-Jets weigh 15 tons less and are 22 feet shorter, providing a more beneficial ramp presence. The 900EX can speed across the Atlantic with all seats full at 0.84 IMN; and has 300 NM greater range than the Gulfstream IV-SP. Furthermore, the 900EX can fly from London to Kansas City, Buenos Aires to New Orleans and Anchorage to Seoul at 0.75 IMN with eight passengers and NBAA IFR reserves. Revolutionary and the world's first purpose built fly-by-wire (FBW) business jet, the Falcon 7X capitalizes on Mach 2 technology.
