VIEWPOINT

Brokering A New Regulation Q: When is a charter operator not a charter operator? by Gil Wolin charter operator is not a charter operator when it’s a charter broker. At least, that’s what the US Department of Transportation (DOT) says, in its long-awaited Notice of Proposed Rule Making (NPRM) published September 30

(http://www.nbaa.org/ops/part135/brkers/20130927-dot-issues-air-charter-brokernprm.php).

This particular NPRM has been more than a decade in the making. As noted here before (“Cracking the Code,” October 2012, and “Charter a G550 For $3990,” June 2011 editions), charter brokering is the only commercial aviation activity not regulated by the DOT. And while this proposed rule is a valiant effort, it falls well short of the mark in protecting both consumers and charter operators from the ethically-challenged “bedroom broker.” The stated intent of the NPRM is “to improve the air travel environment for consumers of single entity charter air transportation.” And it does that, in some ways, by ensuring that when one of the 850+ certificated turbine aircraft charter operators in the US subcontracts (brokers) a trip to another operator, that its charter customer is provided with all pertinent details regarding that other operator prior to the trip, including: the operator’s name; the nature of the relationship between the operators; the subcontracted aircraft make/model; and a detailed summary of all charges for the sub-contracted flight. In essence, it makes certain that this business jet charter counterpart to commercial airline code-sharing, makes full disclosure to the customer with whom and on what aircraft they would be flying. But it doesn’t make the same demands on a nonoperating charter broker, so long as that broker positions itself only as the charter customer’s agent. This NPRM is certainly a step in the right direction. Air charter brokers have been completely unregulated by any government entity since Orville Wright first circled Kill Devil Hill. When charter broker Advertising Enquiries see Page 8

regulation was first seriously discussed almost a decade ago, the National Air Transportation Association (NATA) and others in the industry pressed for a DOTrequired registration of all brokers. That would have made even the non-operating broker an “indirect air carrier,” much like an air freight forwarder, and made them subject to regulation and government oversight. That effort was derailed by the 2009 Colgan Air crash. The flight had been marketed as a “Continental Connection” flight, and families of the crash victims believed that the passengers did not understand that they were flying with a commuter under different FAA regulations, and not with Continental Airlines. That lack of understanding and faulty communication appears to have shifted the DOT’s focus to regulating the code-sharing aspects of Part 135 charter subcontracting, and away from providing some rules for - and accountability by - the non-operating charter broker. So the NPRM does indeed create a new category of indirect air carrier, the air charter broker, under the new proposed Part 295, but holds only the charter operator who subcontracts accountable for compliance with its regulations. According to the DOT, non-operating brokers have no DOT economic authority as either an indirect or direct air carrier. They simply arrange air transportation for charterers with direct air carriers. They can’t “hold out” as a carrier, and serve much as ticket agent, rather a carrier. And that leaves a lot of wiggle room for that non-operating broker – and leaves the DOT with no oversight authority, so long as those brokers position themselves as agents for their clients, the charter consumer. That provides no protection for the charterer, as the broker can simply shop a trip and sell the quote that yields the highest profit margin, and sell that to the client without regard to safety or service quality. The NPRM does nothing to address that. It provides no protection to the charter operator, either, as there are no payment www.AvBuyer.com

escrow requirements. A non-operating broker can book a trip, collect from its client and fail to pay the operator who performs the trip. That leaves the operator in a double-bind: it has lost the profit margin on that trip (usually between five and fifteen percent), and is forced to make good on the operating cost to the aircraft owner (more than 90% of the turbine charter fleet are managed), putting that client-management relationship at risk. Non-operating brokers do serve as a de facto extension of the operators’ sales and marketing force around the world. Most operators depend on broker trips to fill empty-legs or to fly an extra revenue trip on an aircraft away from home-base. Yes, the good guys among brokers will have no problem adhering to the proposed regulations. But it’s never the good guys that are the problem. The NATA Air Charter Committee and the NBAA Ops Service already have identified many of the concerns noted above, and will submit their comments this month. If the DOT is going to make a move, we all want it to be a good one. Given Washington’s current inability to get even routine tasks – like a budget – done, who knows when we’ll have another chance. ❯ Gil Wolin draws on forty years of aviation marketing and management experience as a consultant to the corporate aviation industry.

BUSINESS AVIATION AND THE BOARDROOM

The Peaceable Skies of Business Aviation Possibly the world’s most recognized expert on the value of Business Aviation, Jack Olcott is a former Editor and Publisher of Business & Commercial Aviation magazine and Vice President within McGraw-Hill’s Aviation Week Group. He was President of the National Business Aviation Association from 1992 through 2003, and today Jack’s network and personal knowledge of Business Aviation uniquely qualifies him to oversee Business Aviation and the Boardroom. More information from www.generalaerocompany.com

“Such situations may generate sensational TV, but they are anomalies in an operational environment where aviation’s culture of safety is reflected by an outstanding safety record. ”

The Board plays an integral part in aviation safety. The safety record of jet-powered business aircraft flown by a two-person salaried crew is outstanding—on a par with the most experienced scheduled Airlines, observes Jack Olcott. ecently the Smithsonian Channel has been airing a weekly series entitled Terror in the Skies, which features hair-raising coverage of aircraft accidents and aeronautical close calls. The program’s creative personnel have amassed dramatic clips from across the globe of aircraft dealing with challenging situations, such as extreme crosswinds at airports where terrain features limit conventional approaches. A segment on fatigue featured video of a pilot asleep at the controls, and cases were described where the pilot in command awoke to find the co-pilot also asleep, the aircraft

continuing on course thanks to its autopilot. Footage of tragic accidents also is aired. Such situations may generate sensational TV, but they are anomalies in an operational environment where aviation’s culture of safety is reflected by an outstanding safety record. Terror in the Skies is an unfortunate title for a series on commercial and private aviation. The series does provoke a concept, however, that should be considered by those responsible for oversight of a company’s most important assets—its employees. DOES YOUR TRANSPORTATION POLICY ENSURE SAFETY OF YOUR EMPLOYEES?

What the Boardroom needs to know about Business Aviation PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION—PUBLIC TRUST Travelers who fly on US air carriers or foreign Airlines licensed to conduct activities in US airspace benefit from the professionalism of the Federal Aviation Administration and the commitment of pilots, mechanics and flight attendants who earn their living in commercial aviation. Providers of ondemand (i.e., chartered) air transportation are also subject to federal certification. Our government as well as non-US governments establish minimum qualifications for personnel who fly, with the highest standards specified for aviation professionals responsible for dealing with passengers who purchase air transportation. The International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) provides review and harmonization of safety regulations globally. For the most part, the entire aviation community strives to exceed standards in daily operations. Passengers purchasing Airline tickets or chartering a flight can be assured that the system is safe. The system is also impersonal. A passenger on any form of public transportation places his or her wellbeing in the hands of a stranger. Yes, the risk of a mishap is very low. But the fact remains—someone unknown to your company is in control.

FLIGHT DEPARTMENTS— COMPANY CONTROL It is not so with a company-owned aircraft. Everything that is controllable lies within the purview of the company that chooses to have its own flight department. Each step within the process of providing air transportation for company personnel is implemented by the flight department. Pilots are hired, trained, retained or fired according to the company’s operating manual. Maintenance personnel are similarly selected to fulfill the highly important role of assuring that aircraft are airworthy. Individual and team performance is easily observed, measured, evaluated and corrected when intervention is needed. Rarely is a flight department so large that the Director of Aviation is unable to recognize each member of staff solely by his or her name. Peer review is the norm, and communications between aviation personnel is easily nurtured when the department is in the hands of a knowledgeable manager. Flight safety is a function of how successfully the flight and maintenance personnel perform their tasks. Mechanical malfunction is unlikely when maintenance and inspection protocols dictated by the FAA and the companies that manufacture airframes, engines and avionics equipment are followed. Systems are designed so that no single failure results in a potential tragedy. Furthermore, flight crews are trained to deal with the few mechanical failures that might occur. In the highly skilled world of the scheduled Airlines, pilot error is deemed the leading cause of accidents and mishaps in slightly more than 50 percent of all crashes. In the field on General Aviation, of which Business Aviation is a specialized subset, about 75 percent of accidents are attributed to pilot error (the high percentage due mainly to the number of relatively inexperienced private pilots who Advertising Enquiries see Page 8

are involved in GA accidents). Thus safety is correlated with the knowledge and skill of those who provide air transportation. The best safety system is a well trained staff of aviation professionals, dedicated to a culture of safety and managed by a capable leader. Final responsibility for travel safety of company employees rests with the Board of Directors. Boards have the authority to establish transportation policy. By authorizing formation of the company’s flight department and overseeing the policies that shape that department’s service to the company, Boards have the opportunity to exercise maximum control over air travel safety for employees. No other form of air transportation provides a higher degree of control. Such authority should not be misused. Nor should a Board’s fiduciary responsibility be overlooked.

BUSINESS AVIATION AND THE BOARDROOM

Safety Is Fundamental ...and it rests in the Directors’ hands... To be accepted by travelers, a means of transportation must be statistically safe. It also must be recognized as safe. Business Aviation scores top marks on both counts, asserts Jack Olcott.

” What matters, however, is the safety of the aircraft on which you and your employees are traveling.”

usiness Aviation is an efficient and effective means of placing the right person in the right place at the right time. By providing transportation to many more destinations than are served by scheduled Airlines, and by enabling business men and women to use their travel time efficiency as they work in a secure, private environment, the use of business aircraft is a widely employed practice for many corporations and entrepreneurs. Acceptance of Business Aviation, however, would not be possible if it were not for the community’s excellent record of safety. While efficiency and effectiveness are worthy attributes, Business Aviation’s most important characteristic is its excellent record of safety—on a par with the largest scheduled Airlines (see Chart below). Business aircraft owned (or leased) by companies (or entrepreneurs) for the purpose of industrial aid, and crewed by professional pilots receiving a salary for their labors from the owner, are a particularly safe mode of travel. Since the wide-scale adoption of best practices in training and flight operations several decades ago— about the time that second-generation simulators

employing digital computers and visual systems became available to operators of business aircraft— the record of safety for Business Aviation rapidly became the benchmark for excellence. The introduction of business aircraft powered by jet engines in the 1960s also added measurably to the community’s safety record. Recognition of Business Aviation’s culture of safety grew as accidents and mishaps became exceedingly rare, thereby adding immensely to the acceptance of business aircraft as important business tools. Statistics are appropriate for broad assessments. What matters, however, is the safety of the aircraft on which you and your employees are traveling. With Business Aviation, Directors are able to set policy and monitor compliance for the operation of the company’s flight department. No other form of transportation provides a higher level of control or opportunity to positively affect the safety of corporate air travel. Do you have any questions or opinions on the above topic?

BUSINESS AVIATION AND THE BOARDROOM

Passenger-Flight Crew Relations: A potential Minefield 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.

“This dynamic is why a number of companies have experienced some unfortunate Days of Our Lives distractions caused by well-intended corporate policies or misguided passenger-crew relations.” 30

Most Business Aviation professionals and their passengers are exactly that - ‘professional’. But when lapses happen, the impact can affect safety, security and costs, cautions Pete Agur.

he relationship between flight crewmembers and passengers can have interesting dynamics. Many pilots consider themselves special. We refer to it as the “Skygod” syndrome. Contributing to this strong sense of self is the tendency for key passengers to put pilots on pedestals. Why? It is natural for us to want to believe the person we trust with our wellbeing is “the best”. Most of us feel that way about our doctors. Yet, it is impossible for all of us to have the very best doctors and pilots. This dynamic is why a number of companies have experienced some unfortunate Days of Our Lives distractions caused by well-intended corporate policies or misguided passenger-crew relations.

WORLD AIRCRAFT SALES MAGAZINE – November 2013

BOARDS BEWARE More than one of our clients has had corporate “diversity in the workplace” efforts that created substantially higher Business Aviation operational risks. To illustrate my point, look at the following hypothetical scenero: Your company has a core value of diversity, backed by metrics (headcount expectations). It is a righteous goal. Your HR department is keeper of the torch and has a great deal of authority, ranging from creating candidate slates to assuring personnel conformity. During a recent round of hiring, HR makes it clear the aviation department should hire a minority pilot. HR creates a pool of three candidates, all of whom have less experience than normally required. The interview process goes well. A young Latin female is the frontrunner. She demonstrates exceptional social and communications skills. Even though her flying experience and U continued on page 34

What the Boardroom needs to know about Business Aviation

cockpit skills are substandard, the department manager is coached to “hire her for her attitude and train her for performance”. Unfortunately, over a two-year period she does not respond well to training. Her flying skills remain substandard and her crew coordination, situational awareness and decision-making skills in the cockpit remain unacceptable (i.e., “risk inducing”). She understands her employment is in jeopardy. Her response to technical coaching does not focus on improving. Instead, she launches a campaign to deliberately extend her social network into the back of the aircraft. She aggressively charms many of the key passengers before, during and after their flights, to the point of neglecting her crew responsibilities.

CORPORATE CHALLENGES Unwinding high risk fur-balls are tedious and expensive processes that typically require lots of lawyers, time and money. The lesson to be learned is that noble intentions should not override critical performance standards, lest heightened risks to passengers and increasing costs to the corporation be incurred. Looking at a different hypothetical scenario, a very large company, with great success in its core business, inexplicably experiences decades of instability at the helm of its Business Aviation department. No aviation manager lasts more than two years. From the outside it looks like a series of unfortunate circumstances. Each departing manager quietly fades into the sunset. Then the company hires a new man—let’s call him ‘Fred’ for the sake of this illustration. Fred has exceptional leadership and management experience. He begins to understand the challenges he faces when he discovers that top executives know too much about the inner workings of his department. Unlike his predecessors, who tried to either ignore the issue or address it internally, Fred reaches out to the executive to whom he reports, and beyond. It takes a few exchanges over coffee for him to uncover the source of the problem. Inappropriate conversations are occurring between pilots and passengers. A group of his captains act

WORLD AIRCRAFT SALES MAGAZINE – November 2013

like anarchists. They know that when they subvert their department manager’s authority, they can operate as they please, unsupervised. By explaining the dynamics and unwanted impact of bumptious backchannel behaviors, Fred is able to invoke top executive intervention with the senior passengers. The cycle created by a small group of errant pilots, and unwittingly exacerbated by well-intended passengers, is broken. Inappropriate communications can result in the unnecessary turnover of managers, with an accumulated cost in the hundreds of thousands of dollars.

ALL TOO REALISTIC Both of these cases may seem far-fetched, yet they are not. In fact, they are not even the most egregious examples I could have conceived. I will save those for after I retire and all parties, innocent or otherwise, are deceased. I guess that means my lips are sealed, forever. In the meantime, I urge you, as a Board Member, to provide specific guidance: • Well-intended company policies must be written and implemented in a manner that assures they are not misunderstood or misused. • Don’t allow critical standards designed to assure the mitigation of very real operational risks to be overridden by the subordinate objective of social responsibility. • I also recommend that you remind your top executives to maintain only the most professional of communications and relationships with crewmembers. • In kind, you should expect the Business Aviation manager to direct the same from flight crews. The goal is to prevent inappropriate passenger–flight crew communications because they are likely to lead to significantly increased operational risks, unintended costs of distracting proportions, and potential damage to the brand.

“The lesson to be learned is that noble intentions should not override critical performance standards, lest heightened risks to passengers and increasing costs to the corporation be incurred.”

BUSINESS AVIATION AND THE BOARDROOM

Whole Aircraft Ownership (Part 2) 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

The Role of Management Companies Continuing his series on delivery options for Business Aviation, David Wyndham discusses how management companies serve owners of business aircraft.

“In addition to providing flight crews and functional oversight, the management company can provide economic benefits.”

In this series, we have covered a myriad of ways to access Business Aviation. Whole aircraft ownership offers the most freedom, customization, personalized service, control and responsibility. Coordinating and utilizing business aircraft requires individuals skilled in management and aviation. This endeavor can be accomplished inhouse with your own employees – or another option is the "turn-key" approach of contracting the function and oversight of the aviation operation to a management company. Aviation management companies specialize in flight operations, which can be a distinct advantage for some aircraft owners. One long-time user of a management company told me, "We make construction equipment, not fly airplanes." For a first-time owner of a business aircraft, contracted management is an attractive solution. In addition to provid-

WORLD AIRCRAFT SALES MAGAZINE – November 2013

ing flight crews and functional oversight, the management company can provide economic benefits: • Fuel can be purchased in bulk on behalf of multiple aircraft owners. A dollar per gallon discount on an aircraft burning 250 gallons per hour is substantial. • Maintenance purchasing power can result in savings. When the management company represents multiple aircraft, they should be able to negotiate discounts for spare parts, or at least obtain the most favorable buying terms. • The management company can purchase insurance for its group of owners. If they have an excellent safety record and documented best practices (e.g. an established Safety Management System), the liability and hull insurance rates can be lower than for a single aircraft.

What the Boardroom needs to know about Business Aviation While management companies tailor their services to meet your unique requirements, they typically offer: • Hangaring the aircraft • Managing aircraft records • Hiring/training flight crews • Managing aircraft maintenance • Handling the billing and verification of all variable operating expenses (fuel, maintenance, etc.) • Ensuring all regulatory requirements are met by aircraft and crew • Refueling • Cleaning and cosmetic upkeep of aircraft.

THE AIRCRAFT MANAGEMENT COMPANY CAN FREE YOU UP TO FOCUS ON YOUR CORE BUSINESS

OFF-SETTING COSTS If you, the owner, desire to further reduce your total costs, a management company can charter your aircraft when you are not using it, provided the firm has authorization under FAA Part 135 or its equivalent in non-US countries. This relationship is complicated as there are regulatory restrictions governing operational control of any aircraft used for commercial service. Here are the general terms: • The aircraft owner pays all operating costs (fuel, maintenance, etc.). • The crew may be billed as salaries or as an hourly fee. • The aircraft owner gets a set percentage of the charter revenue. The charter revenue to the owner should be more than enough to cover the operating costs, but will not be enough to cover all the fixed expenses, debt service, and depreciation. Charter revenue is shared between the charter operator and aircraft owner. Rarely, however, does a chartering arrangement with a management company produce a profit for the aircraft owner. If you place your aircraft on the charter certificate of a management company, aircraft and crew must conform to the charter operator's approved operating limitations. For example, the aircraft must be on the operator's approved maintenance program. This requirement may necessitate additional safety equipment be installed on the aircraft, and the frequency and depth of inspections may be increased. The crews must train to the approved operating standards of the charter operator. Furthermore, putting your aircraft on a charter operator's certificate may incur initial expenses for inspections to demonstrate compliance with FAA standards for commercial service. These costs, typically borne by the aircraft owner, can range from several thousand dollars to tens of thousands. Consider the following: A mid-size business jet may charter for $3,000 per hour. Typically the owner’s share of the charter rate is 85%, or $2,550 per hour, and the charter operator gets the remaining $450 per hour. The variable costs for fuel and maintenance may be $2,000 per hour, thereby providing the owner an excess of approximately $550 per hour to apply to the remaining aircraft expenses. Given the added costs of approving your aircraft

WORLD AIRCRAFT SALES MAGAZINE – November 2013

for on-demand commercial service, there must be a certain amount of charter revenue coming in the make the arrangement work financially. The more you fly for your own purposes, the less time the charter operator has available to sell time on your aircraft. Depending on the added costs, 50 to 100 hours per year of charter should generate sufficient additional income to cover the added expenses, but not produce a profit for the owner. Making your aircraft available for charter impacts its availability for company travel. Some owners find it difficult, and at times impractical to allow a management company access to their business aircraft. Charter revenue is passive income. You should confer with an aviation tax authority to see if this makes sense in terms of taxes and tax depreciation.

OTHER ISSUES The management agreement is a legal document that addresses who pays what costs, who is responsible for the operation of the aircraft and crew, and how the aircraft is to be maintained. The contract should also cover any restrictions on the use of the aircraft, who maintains the insurance, the collection and remittance of applicable taxes, and the general legal responsibilities. The relationship with the management company is as much a personal relationship as a business relationship. Like all relationships, communication and shared goals are important.

BUSINESS AVIATION AND THE BOARDROOM

Know Your Business Don’t let the market dictate the cost of buying a business airplane. 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 is a member of EBAA and the Colorado Airport Business Association. Contact him via Jay@jetsales.com.

Board Members are faced with difficult choices, especially when markets are moving, observes Jay Mesinger.

aced with the decision whether or not to acquire a business aircraft, Directors must weigh the cost of the aircraft against the cost of potentially delaying the purchase to a time when the market seems more stable with respect to pricing. Since aircraft prices have trended downward for 25 consecutive quarters, this analysis is not new. Some industry experts see the signs that within the next year to eighteen months the fall in

asset values may flatten or bottom out. Others do not. Let’s not get carried away, however, with discussions about times that are not yet here. This article is about the challenge that Boards face when they are asked to make buying decisions in markets that have not yet bottomed out. Aircraft have always been unique buying challenges. They are either in short supply and therefore garner a premium, or they are plentiful and suffer rapidly declining prices. In either case the Board could be making a buying decision while feeling they are over paying for the asset. What should drive decision makers to move forward in what seems like paralyzing circumstances?

What the Boardroom needs to know about Business Aviation shorten customer response time, and enable interaction with your clients ahead of the competition. The list of positive reasons to buy far outweighs the fears of the incremental decline in the value of the asset. Each company can build its own needs assessment and develop the criteria and milestones for moving forward on this type of investment. Consider tools the Board can use to make the “purchase-versus-delay” decision. Going back to the basics, solid cost metrics are needed. Begin with defining the Mission Profile. This exercise identifies the annual use, from which the annual budget can be developed. Based upon Missions to be flown and costs to be allocated, company executives and their aviation experts can make a recommendation to the Board concerning what type of aircraft should be obtained. This selection will shed light on the capital cost as well as operational costs to be included in the proposed budget. Now the justification process can begin. Will the ability to get out ahead of your competition and get in front of your client or prospect first create sales that might not have been made? Will interacting quickly with a potential client win his or her business, and keep the relationship robust when issues arise? Will Business Aviation enable your company to field a sales force in rural communities that are not served by scheduled Airlines and are too remote for surface transportation? These are all questions that when answered affirmatively help steer the Board and the executives to make the right buying decision.

AN ASSET TO BE USED While retention of asset value is an important consideration, reselling your business aircraft is not the main reason it should be acquired. Obtaining a business advantage is the reason for the purchase, regardless of market movement. A potential purchaser wants a fair price at the time of acquisition and a reasonable assessment of future market value in anticipation of an eventual sale or trade. Who would want to buy an asset as expensive as a business aircraft without a clear

vision of value today and into the future? No one. On the other hand, who would seek logical ways to grow one’s business and introduce new products into new markets as rapidly as possible? Everyone! A business aircraft is a worthy investment for what it does for a company’s core business. Know your business and the decision to acquire such a transportation asset is not complicated. Do you have any questions or opinions on the above topic? Get them answered/published in World Aircraft Sales Magazine.

TREND WATCHING Resale experts are watching closely for changes in market prices of pre-owned business aircraft. Since the Great Recession burst onto the scene in the 2008/2009 period, asset values for business aircraft have fallen faster than what had been the norm for many years. As the economy continues to recover, some market watchers see movement back to traditional trends. In particular they point to a sustainable reduction of inventory and a continued increased activity level for buying. This flattening out of asset 52

depreciation would need to last, in the opinion of some experts, at least three to four quarters for there to be a real strengthening in the market. What traditionally comes next is a change in buying habit. Buyers will begin to pick off the best aircraft available and draw clear price distinctions between the models listed for sale in each segment. Once that culling begins and better aircraft enter the market, we may see an increase in prices (at least between the good offerings).

BUSINESS AVIATION AND THE BOARDROOM

Acquiring A Business Aircraft 101 (Part 1) Keith G. Swirsky is a tax specialist and President of GKG Law. He may be reached via email: kswirsky@gkglaw.com

Legal advice and tax planning support are essential in every business aircraft acquisition, notes attorney Keith Swirsky. In all aircraft transactions, documentation should clearly detail the rights and obligations of the individual parties involved. ax planning, conducted in advance of the closing, is essential to minimizing the effective costs of aircraft ownership and operations. Similarly, aircraft financing transactions, which often have the longest lead times of all the components in aircraft transactions, need to be planned and commenced in the earliest stages of the aircraft acquisition process. Finally, operational considerations, such as whether the aircraft will be managed in-house, or by an external management company, must be addressed in an orderly fashion during the acquisition process (see David Wyndham’s article on Aircraft Management considerations, p38 of this issue). This two-part article will provide a broad brush overview of the process for acquiring an aircraft, starting with identifying those areas where legal expertise is needed and following next month with a basic roadmap.

T “Buyers rarely involve legal and tax planning experts during this early stage in the acquisition process. However, in the event that the buyer desires financing, ideally, the buyer will have already commenced the process of soliciting loan proposals.”

WORLD AIRCRAFT SALES MAGAZINE – November 2013

TIMING CONSIDERATIONS Once the mission profile and acquisition criteria have been determined and the purchaser’s acquisition consultant has been engaged, it is likely that he or she will soon identify and present to the buyer for consideration one or more available aircraft. It is certainly possible that in just a few short weeks the consultant and the buyer together will identify the specific aircraft that the buyer will target for acquisition. Buyers rarely involve legal and tax planning experts during this early stage in the acquisition process. However, in the event that the buyer desires financing, ideally, the buyer will have already commenced the process of soliciting loan proposals. While most lenders generally request specific information on the aircraft to be acquired, they are nonetheless able to provide general financing terms in the event that certain specific aircraft U continued on page 60

What the Boardroom needs to know about Business Aviation parameters can be met (such as model year, price range and aircraft type), and certainly the lenders are able to commence the due diligence process and credit committee approval. The timetable to select a lender among competing proposals can take two or three weeks, and the time required to finalize the loan proposal, submit all financial information, and get the application through the credit committee approval process can take another two or three weeks. Thereafter, up to two more weeks may be necessary to negotiate and finalize the loan agreement and all related documentation. Overall, the buyer should allow at least seven weeks for the process of lender selection through loan document execution. Aviation counsel should be knowledgeable of the “niche” of each aircraft lender to help narrow the field initially and should be able to provide guidance concerning commercially competitive terms for loan proposals. Therefore, counsel should be involved in the entire process. Based on 22 years of aircraft acquisition experience (and thousands of transactions), we know that the timetable to acquire an aircraft can proceed far more quickly than seven weeks. Once an offer letter is executed, it is likely that the process of negotiating an aircraft purchase agreement and inspecting an aircraft will proceed in no more than four weeks. Of course, once the aircraft inspection is completed and repairs are finalized, the seller expects the buyer to proceed to closing expeditiously. Nevertheless, there can be a multi-week “gap” when financing the purchase, in the event the financing process is not commenced early in the process.

OFFER LETTER AND PURCHASE AGREEMENT With respect to documentation, it is always advisable to engage counsel to prepare the aircraft offer letter (letter of intent). While many aircraft brokers will provide forms for this purpose, these are often “cut and paste” documents, cobbled together by the broker from prior aircraft transactions. An aviation attorney is skilled at preparing a comprehensive and clearly thought-through document, appropriately harmonized with the attorney’s purchase agreement. The offer letter should identify several specific items, including: • • • • •

Parties to the transaction Aircraft, price and deposit amounts All aircraft movements and the cost to the buyer related to those movements Identity of the inspection facility and inspection commencement timing Required condition of the aircraft at the time of closing

• •

Whether the purchaser is permitted to reject the aircraft after the inspection Any business deal points that may require clarification.

Although an offer letter is usually legally nonbinding (except perhaps for a confidentiality obligation and reimbursement for aircraft movement costs), the offer letter helps commit the parties to the transaction and avoids any ambiguity on important business points. Once the offer letter is executed, it is customary for buyer’s counsel (not seller’s counsel) to prepare the purchase agreement. The purchase agreement sets forth the commercial terms of the purchase and sale transaction. It expands upon the offer letter provisions, clearly defines circumstances where the deposit becomes non-refundable, provides for conditions upon which each party is obligated to perform in proceeding to closing, and sets forth detailed closing procedures. The purchase agreement also governs the resolution of disputes and the rights and remedies of the parties. The typical time frame to negotiate the purchase agreement is two weeks, although, in an import or export transaction, this timeline can be extended and oftentimes doubles that period.

“Therefore, counsel should be involved in the entire process.”

BUSINESS AVIATION AND THE BOARDROOM

All Pilots Are Created Equal... ...Except When They’re Not! 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

One of the most common questions Stuart Hope receives from pilots is “Am I covered to fly the aircraft?” The answer, he opines, lies somewhere in between ‘yes’ and ‘no’.

“There is a big difference between these situations, however, and the implications for the pilot who misunderstands these terms can be financially catastrophic.”

onfusion over insurance protection stems from what is meant by the terms “approved” and “covered”. A pilot can be either approved OR covered (or both). There is a big difference between these situations, however, and the implications for the pilot who misunderstands these terms can be financially catastrophic. Let me give you a hypothetical example. The full-time pilot for an insured company has terminated his employment and taken a position with another flight department. Before his replacement can be located, the insured has a trip to

make and wishes to use an independent contract pilot while seeking a permanent hire. The insured’s carrier is informed of the situation, verifies that the contract pilot’s credentials are satisfactory regarding experience and recent training, and approves the pilot for flights under the insured’s policy. It’s an early morning departure and things proceed uneventfully until landing at the destination airport, which has a rather short runway. Furthermore, rain is falling. The aircraft runs off the end of U

What the Boardroom needs to know about Business Aviation the wet runway resulting in substantial damage to the aircraft and minor injuries to three passengers. A claim is filed, and the insurance company’s adjuster begins the process of collecting the loss information, such as whether the pilot at the time of accident was approved under the provisions of the insurance policy to operate the aircraft. We have previously established that he was approved—at least as far as the insured’s coverage is concerned. Not so fast for the pilot himself, however!

KNOW WHAT IS COVERED Aviation insurance policies only provide coverage on behalf of certain entities and exclude coverage for others. Why? Because some entities are considered to be “in the business of commercial aviation”, and as such are responsible for providing their own business insurance. The definition of insured as stated within the specific aviation policy highlights the distinction. One insurance company’s policy states: “Insured: Any person or organization while using such aircraft with the permission of the Named Insured provided the actual use is within the scope of such permission and any other person or organization, but only as respects that person’s or organization’s liability because of acts or omissions of the Named Insured. “Insurance under this policy does not apply to any person or organization, or agent or employee thereof (other than employees of the Named Insured) engaged in the manufacture, maintenance, repair, or sale of aircraft, aircraft engines, components or accessories, or in the operation of any airport, hangar, flying school, flight service, or aircraft or piloting service.”

LEGAL, SO BEWARE The coverage described makes sense when you are using the services of an FBO or professional pilot staffing company, but caution is needed when you are using independent contract pilots. As you can see, the contract pilot in this example may be left out in the cold. In a perfect world, the contract pilot would have his own coverage through carrying Non-Owned Aircraft Liability coverage, like FBOs carry. In practice, however, such policies are prohibitively expensive for individual pilots, if available at all. What’s the cure? You can add the contract pilot as an additional insured under the liability coverage (only with respect to pilot services). A downside of including an independent as an additional insured is that you dilute your liability limit. Therefore, limit the coverage amount you provide to some smaller multiple of your overall liability limit. For example, if you carry a $50m liability limit, you might limit the coverage amount you share

under the additional insured status to $5m, which is fair and reasonable. Also, have your insurer agree to waive right of subrogation against the contract pilot with respect to any physical damage or hull damage. This proviso basically acts to restrict the insurer’s right to subrogate or go back against the contract pilot for the damage to the aircraft if the insurer felt it was pilot negligence that caused the damage. As you can appreciate, there is a reason the difference between ‘approved’ and ‘covered’ continues to be misunderstood. There are also other provisions and strategies to consider that are beyond the scope of this article. Your best move forward? Be certain to consult with your aviation insurance broker when using a contract pilot. Do you have any questions or opinions on the above topic?

BUSINESS AVIATION AND THE BOARDROOM

Entry Level & Light Jets: Flexibility at Lower Costs. There’s nothing light-weight about the benefits offered by the Light & Entry-Level business jet segments when travel requires a typical business trip leg of between 500-750 miles. s business jets increase in size from entry level and light jets to the low-end of the large-cabin purpose-built models, the stated seating capacity tends to vary only slightly; six to eight seats dominates the standard configurations of many of the offerings across business airplane size-category lines. It is true that as aircraft increase in size, headroom and leg-room similarly increase, even if available seating does not. It is also true that for many

“ It is also true that for many models, fullfuel payload doesn’t seem to grow proportionally, although a model here and there does defy this generality.”

models, full-fuel payload doesn’t seem to grow proportionally, although a model here and there does defy this generality. Still-air range increases as you move up the categories, but ultimately steps-up in size and range also tend to reduce flexibility in an important, not-to-be-overlooked way: airport access. As jets get bigger and heavier their runway needs increase, often dramatically, with no appreciable gain in how many people can fly or how much equipment the jet can carry. Does that make bigger ‘better’? Not where value and flexibility rule. U

What the Boardroom needs to know about Business Aviation THE VALUE QUOTIENT Many can feel an emotional aversion to aircraft too small for their sensibilities; people want to equate “bigger” with “safer” in a way that the physics belie. The realities of the physics aside, however, the next step-up in size seldom results in a major improvement in seating capacity, let alone in full-fuel cabin load. In reality, the larger jets need more power which means more fuel to cover the same ground at about the same speed, so cabin capacity changes minimally where maximum-range trips are concerned. That returns us to that maximum-range leg fixation: A light jet fully-fuelled and flying a typical Business Aviation mission departs with fuel for the mission, including reserves - in some cases sufficient fuel to return home without topping up. And that maximum-fuel jet can often barely carry the typical passenger load of three persons making the trip, unless one or two of them also doubles as a crew member. With the average mission length under 750 miles and the nominal maximum-range of light jets around 1,200 miles, the crew enjoys the option of flying lighter, saving fuel. (Note: The lower the total weight of the aircraft, the less fuel it consumes on the mission, all other factors being equal). Fueling for the mission - with NBAA reserves - allows a larger cabin load, making three or four passengers, plus crew, possible. In most cases where a fuel stop is not required, the speed difference between a light jets and larger jets result in a leg taking only slightly longer to fly, but at the trade-off of higher direct operating costs of the larger jets. Any time gained, we’re talking a few minutes in most cases, is certainly insufficient to offset operating costs running 50+ percent higher.

SIZE COSTS For most people, the question comes down to this: is a bit of headroom for a 100-minute typical mission really cost-justifiable? That brings us to the aspect of light jets in which they not only excel but cannot be beaten: accomplishing the needed mission at the lowest overall cost. 500-750 miles at a maximum cruise speed of around 400 knots while carrying four passengers will generally cost less in a light jet than making the same trip in a mid-size jet at a 480-knot maximum cruise, let alone in a large-cabin jet. The time difference between heavy and light business jets on a typical mission is small (about 10 to 12 minutes) overall, 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, airport fees tend to be larger for heavier aircraft. With airports and FBOs increasingly turning to weight-based ramp fees for revenue, a larger jet incurs a higher ramp fee, and even if a largeenough fuel purchase can bring a waiver of the fee, you’re still buying far more fuel. Additionally, the light jet crew will have the option of far more airports, often closer, more convenient and less expensive than what’s needed for

WORLD AIRCRAFT SALES MAGAZINE – November 2013

the mid- and large-cabin jets. It’s hard to escape the heavyweight value edge of light jets. It should be noted, however, that ride qualities are impacted by the aircraft’s wing loading (the aircraft’s weight per square foot of wing area). The higher the wing loading, the smoother the ride in turbulence, all other factors such as the aircraft’s inherent stability being equal. Light jets achieve their lower take-off and landing distances, compared with heavy jets, by virtue of their lower wing loading. Workspace while traveling is another consideration. Decisions related to aircraft size are impacted by the needs of passengers to use their travel time productively.

WHAT MAKES A “LIGHT” JET? Today we consider a jet “light” when it’s Maximum Take-off Weight falls between 10,000-20,000 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. Ultimately, where performance and value reign as dominant factors, remember this: there’s nothing lightweight about the value and flexibility of these light jets.

ENTRY-LEVEL AND 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 1994 through Fall 2013, and covers 29 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 Fall 2013 edition of Bluebook show $4.5 million USD for a 2006 model, $4.7 million USD for a 2007 model and so forth. Aircraft are listed alphabetically, and performance and specifications for all listed models are featured in this issue beginning on p88. U www.AvBuyer.com

FLIGHT DEPARTMENT MANAGEMENT SKILLS

Vision, Mission and Values: Powerful tools for every level of management by Jack Olcott oo often the power of these three tools of management— a clearly defined Vision, an instructive statement of Mission, and an unambiguous set of Values or Guiding Principles— are overlooked or discounted by those seeking to be effective managers.

•

Do you know where your company or department is headed?

•

Do you see, and share your leader’s Vision of goals to be achieved?

•

Do you articulate your Vision in a compelling manner to those you are tasked to lead?

•

Can you easily recite your company’s Mission statement?

•

If so, do you understand what it means and how its message shapes your daily actions?

•

Do you integrate the statement of Mission into your daily conversations and directions to staff (if not, you should)?

•

Are there questions regarding what actions or Values are acceptable in the pursuit of Vision and Mission?

MISSION A Mission statement should be a clear, quickly grasped, easily recalled signpost pointing to the goal the group is attempting to reach. Anyone who sees that signpost should know where they are and

where they are headed. Mission statements that are long, convoluted epistles are useless. A lengthy description that fails to be focused and concise often results in ambiguity. Furthermore, no one remembers what such a Mission statement is intended to convey. If the message is confusing or can’t be recalled, it is ineffective in shaping behavior. Peter F. Drucker was the recognized authority in management and marketing theory throughout most of his seven decade career as a teacher, author and management consultant. Active as an educator at Claremont Graduate University, California, until age 92 and continuing as a consultant to industry for several years thereafter prior to his death in 2005, Professor Drucker provided great insight to all who aspire to management. His writings are numerous; his words on the importance of Vision, Mission and Values are well worth reading and implementing. In his book, Managing the Non-Profit Organization, Drucker stated “the first job of the leader is to think through and define the mission of the institution”. Mission is paramount for effective leadership, he reasoned, for without a purposeful Mission resulting from a constructive Vision and implemented by adherence to core Values, a charismatic personality can lead a nation, company or department astray. On a global scale, he referenced Hitler, Stalin and Chairman Mao, three dynamic leaders with misguided Missions who inflected immense suffering on the world. Recent examples of questionable and self-serving Missions can be found in the history of the nation’s Great Recession. Drucker said that a statement of Mission must not be “a kind of hero sandwich of good intensions”. Furthermore it should properly identify the purpose of the group under consideration. For example, he noted that many hospitals defined their Mission as health care, when in fact hospitals do not take care of those who are healthy—they care for those who are sick. In Drucker’s opinion, “Our Mission is health care” does nothing to identify the appropriate actions or behaviors of hospital employees. He further illustrates the wisdom of the pithy, instructive Mission statement with several examples, such as the words of the famous 19th Century British educator, Arnold of Rugby, who defined the Mission of the English Public School system as “Making gentlemen out of savages”.

MEANINGFUL MESSAGE

statement “Make money and have fun” say? Is it sufficiently directive to lead employees in the right direction so they make constructive decisions regarding the company’s goods and services? Does that division’s statement of Mission align with the Mission and goals of the overall corporation? The Mission statement must be operational, not simply a recitation of platitudes. It should focus on what the group is trying to accomplish, resonate with the corporation’s Vision, Mission and Values, and do so with sufficient rhetoric and style to instill within each employee an awareness of his or her contribution to the overall goals of the organization. Furthermore, employees should be participants in its creation. A statement that comes down from on-high, imposed by the department head or company hierarchy, is easily ignored and forgotten. Rather, it is

the leader’s responsibility to articulate his or the company’s Vision such that the group grasps what the leader sees, embraces the wisdom of that Vision and captures its essence in their Mission statement. When the group participates in creating its Mission statement, the true benefits of this management tool as a compass and motivator will be realized. Mission, like Vision and Values, must be sufficiently discussed, dissected and developed by the group so that all who are guided by these management tools feel a personal commitment to their implementation. The mark of a true leader is someone who shapes the process constructively for the benefits of the organization. Do you have any questions or opinions on the above topic?

FLIGHT DEPARTMENT MANAGEMENT SKILLS

Aviation Manager: Do you have what it takes ? by Walter Kraujalis hrough hard work we strive to achieve success, prosperity and advancement in social status. As a member of a corporate flight department, how are expectations realized? Of course a co-pilot wants to become a captain, perhaps to earn more pay, self-pride and professional recognition, so it makes sense that a captain would want to become the chief pilot or flight department manager, right? Similarly the line mechanic wants to become an inspector, who then wants to become the Director of Maintenance and possibly be considered for Director of Aviation. Though advancement is a normal desire and career goal for an aviation professional, the reality is that moving into the corner office is not the same as moving from the right seat of the cockpit to the left seat, or moving from the rolling stool on the shop floor to the desk chair. A management position is a completely different job from flying or fixing an airplane. Working with an aircraft’s complex systems, its limitations, and its normal and abnormal operational procedures has little to do with being an aviation manager.

DIFFERENT SKILLS A manager can set goals, break these goals down into actionable steps, calculate a budget, and use good communication, training and motivation to shape wellqualified individuals into a productive team. Managing a flight department has very little to do with altitude, pressure, voltage, or initial approach fixes. Further, ❯ management is not about telling people

what to do or taking all the cherry trips or only the ones with the CEO onboard. Fortunately the attributes necessary for management can be learned. No one is really a natural-born manager. Before setting your career goal of becoming the boss, you should pause and reflect upon your personal abilities, qualifications and motivations. Compare your current knowledge and skills with the qualifications of a manager and then chart a path for getting trained in the areas where you come up short. We have all heard the story of dashed expectations: the expert pilot who aspired to be the department manager and finally obtained that coveted position only to be disappointed because all he or she really wanted was simply to fly aircraft. Sometimes when the best pilot is made the aviation manager, the company loses the services of the best pilot, gains a poor manager, and everyone is miserable. No one emerges a winner. The qualifications to be an aviation manager are well-described in the NBAA’s Certified Aviation Manager program (CAM). These core knowledge areas are: • • • • •

THE EFFECTIVE AVIATION MANAGER MUST ADD MANY TOOLS TO THEIR SKILL-SET BEYOND THEIR PREVIOUS ABILITIES.

“Sometimes when the best pilot is made the aviation manager, the company loses the services of the best pilot, gains a poor manager, and everyone is miserable.” and skills necessary to be an effective manager.

THRESHOLD ISSUES There are several basic tenets to be considered before pursuing management training. First, managers must have concern for others, not just themselves. You succeed as a manager when your entire team succeeds. Quite simply, you have to be able to deal with people. This advice may sound simple and trite, but being self-centered is often one of the major reasons individuals fail as managers, or become tired of management. Can you put the needs of others ahead of your own needs? You don’t have to be a martyr, but you cannot ignore the members of your department. Second, a manager must regularly communicate with those above and below his or her position. Most often poor communication skills lead to people-problems. Don’t

www.AvBuyer.com

let the fear of communicating keep you from considering management; these skills can be developed with training. But if you don’t see yourself talking and writing to others as an integral part of your career development, you should rethink your intentions. Finally, as a manager you will likely do less of your first passion (flying or fixing airplanes). Time needs to be dedicated to management responsibilities. Are you ready to leave the cockpit or the maintenance shop? Or even worse, do you believe you can handle a full schedule of technical tasks and be an effective manager? It is not possible to manage on the fly (pun intended). Management tasks that get little attention often run amok. Also, attempting to be jack-of-all-trades is a well-worn path to burn-out.

AIRCRAFT COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS PILATUS PC-12 NG

DAHER-SOCATA TBM 850

CESSNA GRAND CARAVAN

Pilatus PC-12 NG by Michael Chase n this month’s Aircraft Comparative Analysis, we provide information on a selection of New and PreOwned business turboprops in the $2.14-4.47m range for the purpose of valuing the New and Pre-owned Pilatus PC12. With nearly 1,200 units in operation today, how does the PC-12 measure with its competition? Across the following paragraphs, we’ll consider the productivity parameters - payload/range, speed and cabin size - and consider current and future market values. The field in this study includes the Daher-Socata TBM 850 and the Cessna 208B Grand Caravan.

WORLD AIRCRAFT SALES MAGAZINE – November 2013

BRIEF HISTORY Pilatus has been building single-engine aircraft in Stans, Switzerland for nearly 70 years. The Pilatus PC-12 is a high-powered singleengine turboprop with a four-blade prop. The first flight of the first of two prototypes took place on May 31, 1991. Certification of the type was originally planned for mid-1991 but a redesign of the wings (leading to an increase in wing span) and the addition of winglets to ensure performance guarantees were met delayed the schedule. Swiss certification finally took place on March 30, 1994, and FAA approval followed on July 15, 1994. The PC-12/45 was manufactured from 1995 to 2008; the PC-12/47 was manufactured between 2006 and 2008; and the PC-12 NG www.AvBuyer.com

(Next Generation) is the updated version of the PC-12 starting at serial number 1,001, and still in production today. The cockpit is equipped with Honeywell’s Apex avionics suite. There are over 1,150 PC-12 aircraft in operation today, as outlined in Table A (overleaf). The PC-12 is equipped with both a passenger door and a cargo door and is available in several configurations, including sixpassenger executive; nine-passenger standard; commuter; cargo; and combi. Rigi, Inc., a New Hampshire-based fractional ownership company, is the largest fractional operator of PC-12s in the world, operating a total of 29 with two PC-12/45s; 15 PC-12/47s; and ❯ 12 PC-12 NGs in the fleet.

The Pilatus PC-12 NG aircraft has a single Pratt & Whitney Canada PT6A-67P engine offering 1,200 shs. By comparison, the competitors in this field also operate a single Pratt & Whitney Canada engine - each offering less output at 850 shs for the TBM 850 aircraft, and 675 shs for the 208B Grand Caravan aircraft. Table C (bottom, left) is sourced from the Aircraft Cost Calculator (ACC) and shows the fuel usage by each aircraft model in this field of study. The Pilatus PC-12 NG (63 gallons per hour (GPH)) uses 13 gallons per hour (26%) more fuel than the Cessna 208B Grand Caravan (50 GPH), but less gallons per hour than the TBM 850 (72 GPH). Using data published in the May 2013 B&CA Planning and Purchasing Handbook and the August 2013 B&CA Operations Planning Guide we will compare our aircraft. Jet A fuel cost in our source publications was $6.08 per gallon at press time for the August 2013 edition, so for the sake of comparison we’ll chart the numbers as published. Note: The fuel price used from this source does not represent an average fuel price for the year.

PRODUCTIVITY COMPARISONS

1. Range with full payload and available fuel; 2. The long range cruise speed flown to achieve that range; 3. The cabin volume available for passengers and amenities. The result is a very large number so for the purpose of charting, each result is divided by one billion. The examples plotted are confined to the aircraft in this study. A computed curve fit on this plot would not be very tight, but when all turboprops are considered the “r” squared factor would equal a number above 0.9. Others may choose different parameters, but serious business aircraft buyers are usually impressed with Price, Range, Speed and Cabin Size. After consideration of the Price, Range, Speed and Cabin Size, we can conclude that the Pilatus PC-12 NG as shown in the productivity index Chart D is highly productive compared to the other aircraft shown. In a direct comparison with the Socata TBM 850 model the Pilatus PC-12 NG has nearly three times the cabin volume and more range, while costing about 16.8% more to operate per mile (and 2.1% more in variable cost), and offering less speed (209kts vs. 255kts). It is also purchased at a much higher price. In a direct comparison to the 208B Grand Caravan, the Pilatus PC-12 NG is roughly equivalent in cabin volume, costs about 22.4% less to operate per mile, but 18.1% more in variable cost, offers higher speed (209 kts vs. 156 kts), and considerably more range (1,402nm vs. 599nm). Again, respective to the Vref values, this all comes at a much higher purchase price. Table D (right) contains the relative retail prices from Vref for each aircraft.

SUMMARY Within the preceding paragraphs we have touched upon several of the main attributes that business aircraft operators value. There are other qualities such as airport performance, terminal area performance, and timeto-climb performance that might factor in a buying decision, too, however.

WORLD AIRCRAFT SALES MAGAZINE – November 2013

The Pilatus PC-12 NG aircraft fares well against its competition, so those operators in the market should find the preceding comparison of value. Our expectations are that the Pilatus PC-12 NG will continue to do very well in the pre-owned market.

WEATHERPROOF YOUR JET

Weatherproofing An Aircraft Protecting an investment, making an impression. by Dave Higdon ost of us have heard that “You never get a second chance at a first impression”. Equally well known among machine-maintenance folks and directed towards the tight-fisted, “Pay me now or pay me later”. As a matter of fact, your aircraft’s appearance contributes to the first impressions you give of yourself or your corporation every time it lands at a new airport or a new client comes within visual range of the jet. Keeping it looking good and protecting it from weather or correcting finish problems falls under the “pay me now” logic. Neglecting your aircraft’s finish or corrosion issues will inevitably see you “pay later” when the wrong first impression is given. Attending to the corrosion-prevention needs of the airplane enhances its appear-

ance. The outcomes are complementary and connected. Both contribute to keeping moisture from where it should not be, and both serve to resist moisture that would otherwise degrade aircraft structures. Maintaining seals and drains from internal voids stand as high as good primer and paint when it comes to protecting against corrosion. Not all spaces outside the pressure vessel can be effectively sealed against water, though. Water can enter unusual, undesirable spots during heavy or sustained periods of rainfall while 40% humidity can help moisture condense within airframe cavities. Moisture in cavities contributes to corrosion; ditto for moisture that creeps beneath paint layers. While a pressurized fuselage may be environmentally sealed from the outside, not so wings and tail surfaces, fuselage sections www.AvBuyer.com

beyond pressure bulkheads, flaps and ailerons and winglets. These areas remain unsealed because they need to remain in equilibrium with atmospheric pressure as the aircraft climbs and descends. Even windows have to be free to breathe while maintaining an air seal. The only foolproof path to a fully weatherproofed airplane, according to several engineers and mechanics consulted, is to never pull it out of the hangar! Of course, airplanes are meant to move – and since no Hangar Queen ever brought together two parties to sign a deal and shake hands, the time spent out of the hangar ensures that your airplane needs regular care and maintenance for the sum of the parts. Like the human skin, the outside finish gets the focus since it is this that takes the brunt of operator use and abuse. Aircraft Index see Page 4

Regulatory Update_Gil WolinNov06 21/10/2013 14:35 Page 2

open regularly. Even when parked in the hangar, the impact of ultra-violet rays and whatever the winds carry continues to contribute to gradual paint damage.

THE SKIN IN THE GAME

WORKING IN A HOSTILE ATMOSPHERE Though the airplane is likely hangared, a majority of the time aircraft surfaces take their worst beatings when flying. The worst finish damage and wear occurs between the ground and to the dew-point level of atmosphere where the moisture content diminishes to almost nothing. In-flight – particularly at lower altitudes – air pollutants, rain, ice, engine-exhaust fumes and dust wear on paint and bare metal surfaces (polished leading edges, the heated rings of engine-inlet nacelles and exposed accessories). As if that's not bad enough, the damage threat doesn't end completely when the aircraft is pulled back into a hangar. Complete protection against the atmosphere isn't viable in a building with doors large enough for an aircraft to pass through, and which must Advertising Enquiries see Page 8

And airplanes expose a lot of their surface to all the deleterious damage of wind, sun, rain and atmospheric pollutants. That's a lot of surface area to maintain – hundreds and hundreds of square feet. Consider that the average human carries between 1.6 and 1.8 square meters of skin surface (with 1.7 square meters equal to about 18.3 square feet). Now consider that aircraft carry far more ‘skin’. Even the wings of a small piston aircraft measure approximately 150 square feet – 17 square meters (plus the fuselage area, which can number hundreds more square meters). Regular care while avoiding excessive sun exposure helps keep human skin healthy for longer – and the same precautions help prolong paint life, including regular washing and waxing. But the efforts to protect the aircraft against moisture first depend on a quality finish – primer, paint and polish.

BEDEVILING NATURE WITH DETAILING Among the most-recommended ways to protect the airplane is regular cleaning and, in particular, detailing are routine maintenance steps. A full airplane detailing may take twothree days, but the owner or operator should consider the costs as preventive maintenance. A professional detail shop should be deep enough to give you a tick list of areas in need of more than a good wash and wax. Windows should be protected from paint treating, as should bare and polished metal surfaces – such as the inlet rings of a jet or propjet. Here suggestions and answers become subject to the actual condition of the airframe. The detailers should finish with an www.AvBuyer.com

inventory of areas in need of touch-up, paint restoration, paint replacement or parts problems. Well done, the detailer's work should veritably shine while lasting 10 to 12 months – with three to four regular washes in the period. Performed properly, an aircraft detail job demands extremely hard work that may require two days for one person to accomplish. And it involves far more than a little soap, water and elbow grease. A discerning examination should also reveal whether a new paint job is warranted, or whether paint and finish restoration will cover any need. Neither job is a task for the uninitiated or amateur.

THE BEDEVILING DETAILS Professional detail shops may charge $800 to $1,000 to detail a light twin or high-performance single with prices for larger propjets and jets proportionally larger. Done completely a professional detail will involve first applying rubbing compound with rotary polishers and wool pads; this step cleans and removes exterior surface oxidation and fallout. Ideally the detailer will apply a special aircraft paint sealant to protect the paint from the elements. This treatment typically lasts for roughly one year, depending on flying time and conditions. Technicians generally recommend quarterly dry washes, since most dry wash products have a little bit of sealant in them which serves to further protect the paint from moisture and light. If corrosion appears inside structures, or worse between the paint and the metal below, a professional detailer or paint restoration expert needs to be consulted – in addition to the aircraft's regular maintainer. Cleaning and correcting any inter-granular and surface corrosion signs means special surface preparation, new primer and repainting. These are all jobs best left to the professionals. ❯ WORLD AIRCRAFT SALES MAGAZINE – November 2013

WEATHERPROOF YOUR JET

RESTORATION VERSUS REPAINT Restoring paint and repainting both require knowledge, skills and the use of materials outside the day-to-day of most aircraft maintenance shops. For that reason paint-design professionals tend to work with customers who turn to their recommended paint shops. Even a simple, honest evaluation of the paint’s condition requires expertise. If the paint surface is chalky, if it peels or shows through metal a new paint job is likely the best solution. Remembering that ‘first impression’ your airplane will give of you or the company, a new paint job and its protective elements can be in order after a major repair; after refitting the interior; or when a change in ownership warrants a new identity for the aircraft. In many cases, skilled detailers can bring back to life some tired finishes. But remember: rejuvenating aircraft finishes is more than a wash-and-wax-job. The restoration tech, like the painter, will employ the correct processes and paint using appropriate tools. And restoration of an old finish requires far more than a good polishing because the base surface itself needs preparation prior to rejuvenating the surface. Repainting, on the other hand, involves even more.

Designers offers that a proper paint scheme starts with a properly prepared surface. That means removing hatches, gear doors, flaps, ailerons, elevators, trim and anti-servo tabs so that they and the rest of the airframe can be stripped, cleaned and treated for the applications to come. It's important that this work be done correctly to assure a long life for the paint, Barnett told World Aircraft Sales Magazine. Everything - down to surface fasteners - should be removed, including stainless-steel screws, nuts, bolts and other hardware. From there the stripping should be performed to remove any trace of old paint or

A QUESTION OF BALANCE Experts such as Jim Miller (Jim Miller Painting, Texas - http://jmaircraftpainting.com/), restoration experts at Duncan Aviation (www.duncanaviation.aero), and the paint-design artists at Scheme Designers, New Jersey (http://www.schemedesigners.com/) each stress the same points: Painting aircraft is a special skill requiring the appropriate materials and processes for success. For example, Craig Barnett of Scheme

primer, then the surface should be thoroughly cleaned to remove any residue from the stripping before being primed in accordance with the needs of the paints selected. Etching primers help paints to cling, while others promote insulation of the metals from the atmosphere. Ideally, shop staff members encouraged the use of pressurized paint booths, electrostatic applications and clean rooms for the masking, priming, painting and detail paint work that follows. All of those surfaces removed must be balanced after the paint dries and any polishing is complete. With around 150 shops in the U.S. offering painting and finish-restoration services, picking a shop that adheres to the top standards – and has turned out excellent jobs you can see – may require both lengthy research and a long waiting period. References from other operators can be highly valuable, as will recommendations from companies that specialize in designing aircraft livery – such as Scheme Designers. Scheme Designers even keeps a list of shops that meet its standards for referrals. With so many operators holding on to their existing aircraft, the paint shops are seldom idle. And as Barnett noted, if you hear from a shop that's available immediately, ask them why. You may not want to use them… Ultimately, the key message is that you certainly don't want to neglect the aircraft finish out of any false sense of economy or a diminished belief in aesthetics.

WORLD AIRCRAFT SALES MAGAZINE – November 2013

The following describes the content of each cost element used in The Aircraft Cost Evaluator. There are no sales taxes included in these costs. VARIABLE COST PER HOUR Includes fuel, maintenance reserves for routine maintenance, engine/ propeller/APU reserves, and miscellaneous expenses. SPECIFICATIONS - GENERAL: CABIN DIMENSIONS Cabin Height, Width, and Length are based on a completed interior. On “cabin-class” aircraft, the length is measured from the cockpit divider to the aft pressure bulkhead (or aft cabin bulkhead if unpressurized). For small cabin aircraft, the distance is from the cockpit firewall to the aft bulkhead. Height and width are the maximum within that cabin space. Cabin Volume is the interior volume, with headliner in place, without chairs or other furnishings. Cabin Door Height and Width are the measurements of the main passenger cabin entry door. BAGGAGE Internal baggage volume is the baggage volume that is accessible in flight by the passenger. This amount may vary with the interior layout. External baggage volume is the baggage volume not accessible in flight (nacelle lockers, etc.). CREW SEATS/SEATS EXECUTIVE This is the typical crew and passenger seating commonly used on the aircraft. This is not the maximum certificated seats of the aircraft. These numbers may vary for different operations (Corporate, Commercial, EMS, etc.). WEIGHTS: • Maximum Take-Off Weight and Maximum Landing Weight are specified during aircraft certification. • Basic Operating Weight is the empty weight, typically equipped, plus unusable fuel and liquids, flight crew @ 200 pounds each and their supplies. • Useable fuel is the useable fuel in gallons x 6.7 pounds per gallon (Jet fuel) or 6 pounds per gallon (AVGAS). • Payload with Full Fuel is the useful load minus the useable fuel. The useful load is based on the maximum ramp weight minus the basic operating weight. • Maximum Payload is the maximum zero fuel weight minus the basic operating weight. SPECIFICATIONS PERFORMANCE RANGE: • Range - Seats Full is the maximum IFR range of the aircraft with all passenger seats occupied. This uses the NBAA IFR alter-

www.AvBuyer.com

nate fuel reserve calculation for a 200 N.Mi. alternate. This is used for jet and turboprop aircraft. • Ferry Range - is the maximum IFR range of the aircraft with the maximum fuel on board and no passenger seats occupied. This uses the NBAA IFR alternate fuel reserve calculation for a 200 N.Mi. alternate. This is used for jet and turboprop aircraft. • VFR Range - Seats Full is the maximum VFR range of the aircraft with all passenger seats occupied. This is used for all helicopters and piston fixed-wing aircraft. • VFR Ferry Range - is the maximum VFR range of the aircraft with the maximum fuel on board and no passenger seats occupied. This is used for all helicopters and piston fixed-wing aircraft. BALANCED FIELD LENGTH BFL is the distance obtained by determining the decision speed (V1) at which the take-off distance and the accelerate-stop distance are equal (fixed-wing multi-engine aircraft only). This is based on four passengers and maximum fuel on board (turbine aircraft). For single-engine and all piston fixed-wing aircraft, this distance represents the take-off field length at Maximum Takeoff Weight (MTOW). LANDING DISTANCE (FACTORED) For fixed-wing turbine aircraft, landing distance is computed using FAR 121 criteria. This takes the landing distance from 50/35 feet (depends on certification criteria) and multiplies that by a factor of 1.667. No credit is given for thrust reversers. Configuration is with four passengers and NBAA IFR Fuel Reserve on board. For fixed-wing piston aircraft, this figure is the landing distance over a 50 foot obstacle. RATE OF CLIMB (Ft/Min) The rate of climb, given in feet per minute, is for all engines operating, at MTOW, ISA conditions. One Engine Out rate of climb is for one engine inoperative rate of climb at MTOW, ISA. CRUISE SPEED (Knots True Air Speed - KTAS) Max Cruise Speed - is the maximum cruise speed at maximum continuous power. This may also be commonly referred to as High Speed Cruise. Normal cruise speed is the recommended cruise speed established by the manufacturer. This speed may also be the same as Maximum Cruise Speed. Long Range Cruise is the manufacturer’s recommended cruise speed for maximum range. ENGINES The number of engines, manufacturer and model are shown. Aircraft Index see Page 4

PROPJETS’ PROGRESS

Propjets’ Progress: New-Model Development Continues for Singles & Twins. by Dave Higdon he turboprop is dead; long live the jet! Do you remember that thinking? It was a product of enthusiasm over the promise of a wave of new jet engines powerplants that held the promise to fulfilling the dream of smaller-than-ever and moreaffordable-than-imaginable jets. One OEM's marketing chief of the time went so far as to predict that aside from a truly small number

WORLD AIRCRAFT SALES MAGAZINE – November 2013

of highly specialized missions, these new jets spelled a quick end to the propjet option. Nearly 25 years later, that same executive laughed a little about the forecast. “I think maybe we engaged in a little wishful thinking and marketed accordingly – based solely on economics to the exclusion of much mission considerations and logistical reality.” In a perverse bit of hubris, companies developing the most-advanced turboprops of www.AvBuyer.com

the day forecast a slow abandonment of light jets in favor of the more cost-efficient propjet designs. It’s interesting how both sides got it wrong. The scope of jets available in the light segment continues to grow, despite the continuation of setbacks experienced by some recent start-ups. “Obviously, we were wrong, big time,” observed the OEM executive. “We see more ❯ turboprop contenders now than then.” Aircraft Index see Page 4

PROPJETS’ PROGRESS

A PROPJET LOOKS LIKELY, BUILT ON THE FUSELAGE OF THE PREMIER I

Beechcraft and Piaggio helped keep the propjet twin alive, with the Beech King Air family undeniably the most-successful line of turboprops in aviation history. The Frenchmade TBM 700/850, Pilatus PC-12 and Piper Meridian helped establish the single-engine propjet as a viable alternative to twins and light jets. All the while, efforts around the world to add to these models continue with zeal. Thanks to avionics advances, engine progress and a wealth of known interest, several projects in play aim at a common goal: to certificate and sell new propjets – or, old piston models resurrected as propjets.

POSITIVES & NEGATIVES The Teal Group last year forecast a market of around $2 billion a year for turboprops from now into the 2020s. The amount continues to pale compared to the expectations for the overall turbine-aircraft market. Propjets still generally find their greatest efficiencies flying in the middle altitudes – unlike jets, for which higher is generally better. Better fuel consumption; lower fuel costs; simpler pilot-rating requirements; decent speed - propjets are often the most-suitable solution for operations at many airstrips, thanks to more-robust gear and smaller runway requirements. And they can often match

WORLD AIRCRAFT SALES MAGAZINE – November 2013

light jets in whole-leg times. Lower initial costs go along with lower on-going expenses. So what are the downsides of propjets? Lower absolute ceilings and slower cruise speeds (300 knots is almost unheard of – but it does happen). Nevertheless, no jet type rating is required. The single-engine models don't even require a multi-engine rating as do all the propjet twins and, at least for now, all jets in business aviation.

AVIATION ALLIANCE This group of companies, headed by former Cessna chairman Jack Pelton as managing director of operations, seeks to take a page out of Ken Ricci's book and his successful Nextant 400 program. But instead of re-manufacturing a jet like the Beechjet 400A, Pelton's group picked a once highly popular Cessna piston twin, the 421 – and plans to make them over into the Excalibur 421 propjet twin. The enterprise is based in Paso Robles, California, but the actual work in remanufacturing, systems upgrades and interior makeover will be performed by Alliance team members located in Oklahoma City at the Oklahoma Jet Support Center and Capital Aviation. www.AvBuyer.com

According to the Aviation Alliance's initial information, it plans to graft a pair of Pratt & Whitney PT6A-135A turboprop engines, add a Garmin G600 avionics suite, and completely remanufacture the Cessna 421C with new winglets, new tires and brakes, a totally new cabin interior, complete with modern anti-ice gear for flight into known icing, and augment the systems with modern hydraulic and electrical systems. The company's preliminary specifications show a 327-knot top speed, 1,420-nauticalmile range, and better useful load. The tab for the complete aircraft is $2.5 million, complete with a new-system and aircraft warranties similar to the warranties OEMs offer for their all-new aircraft. The prototype Excalibur 421 has been flying and the company expects FAA STC approval and deliveries to start by year-end before the company adds a similar program for Cessna's 414.

BEECHCRAFT As the company emerged from its lengthy and unsettling bankruptcy on February 19th, company executives let word circulate about plans to shed all of the jet programs of the former Hawker Beechcraft – and focus instead solely on propeller-driven plants. Aircraft Index see Page 4

PROPJETS’ PROGRESS would be 1,750 nautical miles and highspeed cruise 302 knots at FL250. The airplane would have a maximum payload of 2,800 pounds and a full-fuel payload of 1,650 pounds.

KESTREL You'll forgive our contribution to some mild confusion for this one – a fledgling company aiming to certificate a new light propjet spun off an earlier British design. The Kestrel traces its roots back to the Farnborough F1 single-engine turboprop – but is now closer to a clean-sheet design moving forward on the strength, experience and savvy of its founding executive, Alan Klapmeier. If his name rings a bell you likely paid attention to the efforts of Cirrus Design Corp. to certificate and build the SR20 and SR22 piston singles – and already progressing with its own jet single, launched by Klapmeier. “We've set out to build the most-comfortable, efficient turboprop available,” Klapmeier said during a conversation earlier this year at EAA Oshkosh. By the numbers, the Kestrel offers a maximum range of 1,300 nautical miles (plus reserves) on its 319-gallon fuel capacity; a near-jet cruise-speed of 320 knots true; Garmin's G3000 touch-control integrated avionics system; and the efficiency of Honeywell's TPE331-14GR engine making a flat-rated 1,000 shp. A full-fuel useful load of 1,200 pounds makes the seating for six (standard, with an option for seven to eight) a highly flexible capacity for mixing people and equipment. But like every start-up venture in aviation's 110 years, Kestrel has struggled to pay its bills while successfully seeking the additional funding needed to complete the program – a situation Klapmeier faced before as head of Cirrus Design. He remains confident in success.

KESTREL

XI'AN AIRCRAFT During the multiple briefings since – and with updates expected at the NBAA Convention in Las Vegas – Beechcraft executives pressed the idea that new designs were on their way… both singles, and twins, with the singles becoming the major head-shaker. In late September a company web page showed details of a new propjet single built on the modified fuselage of the composite Premier I. No one should have been surprised – or shocked at that revelation. Beechcraft executives seemed almost eager to share their propjet plans during last year's National Business Aviation Association meeting in Orlando. There, Beechcraft vice president Shawn Vick shared Beechcraft's plans for three new Beechcraft turboprops – one, a

100

WORLD AIRCRAFT SALES MAGAZINE – November 2013

single-engine model, another being a twin. The third is yet to be defined. The proposed turboprop twin would occupy a market niche between the King Air 90 and King Air 250, said Hawker Beechcraft. A chart showed the other two turboprops filling gaps between the Baron G58. The company even shared long-term goals and details - among them, details about the company's propjet single. This single mates a nose-mounted powerplant to the forward fuselage of the Premier I and is believed to be flying in preliminary certification work. This new Beechcraft propjet seats one pilot and eight to 11 passengers in a cabin 5.5 feet wide, 5.4 feet high and 20.4 feet long. The NBAA IFR range with four passengers www.AvBuyer.com

We can't avoid giving a nod to the world's most-populous nation as a growing influence in Business Aviation - both jets and propjets. China's AVIC is a growing global player in Commercial, Business and General Aviation through its subsidiary, Xi'an Aircraft. A year ago China's state aerospace giant went for a big presence at the Dubai air show to highlight its new MA 600 turboprop - a 50-seat upgrade of the smaller MA 60 propjet. AVIC also showed a 19-seat model it called the Aircar aimed at corporate users, tour operators and the like. Xi'an Aircraft executive Shuyu Zhai said its parent company has set it the target of overtaking its European and Canadian rivals to become the world's number-one turboprop-maker by 2020. ■ Aircraft Index see Page 4

CONVENIENCE REGISTERS

Registers of Convenience The ‘whys’ and ‘wherefores’ of offshore registers. by Rod Simpson n the middle of the Irish Sea, a small island is home to over 400 private and business aircraft. Yet only a handful of those aircraft wearing the island’s M- registrations have ever visited the Isle of Man’s small airport at Ronaldsway. In common with a number of small offshore territories, principally in the British Commonwealth, the Isle of Man maintains an aircraft register and any aircraft owner can opt to sign up to the airworthiness and operational rules and regulations of that territory. Around the world, there are several off-

102

WORLD AIRCRAFT SALES MAGAZINE – November 2013

shore registration authorities including the Cayman Islands (with VP-C registration prefix), Bermuda (VP-B and VQ-B), Malta (9H-), San Marino (T7-) and Aruba (P4-) and many owners may also opt to keep their aircraft on the United States’ register. The rapidly growing Isle of Man register, launched in May, 2007, is currently the largest of the overseas offshore registers and was recently voted the best aircraft registry in the world by a panel of aviation legal advisors. Next largest is the Cayman Islands which is one of the longer-established authorities with just over 200 aircraft on www.AvBuyer.com

record while the San Marino register is one of the most recent arrivals, having been established in its present form in December, 2012. Several operators have also opted for the Maltese register which now has 35 business aircraft (including nine of the Comlux charter fleet). In May, 2012 Guernsey also set up a public-private partnership agreement with SGI Aviation to establish an aircraft registry and this is expected to be launched soon with a target of having around 150 aircraft by 2015 and offering the tax advantages of being based in the Channel Islands. ❯ Aircraft Index see Page 4

CONVENIENCE REGISTERS

LEGAL ADVICE When you decide to buy a business aircraft, you will quickly discover that its ownership and operation is rather more complicated than you had imagined. This is a valuable and expensive asset and it comes with many rules and regulations. At the outset, it is very worthwhile to get some legal advice on a number of matters including the way in which you can establish ownership, deal with your financing house, handle insurance - and register the aircraft to your best advantage. Using a specialised legal firm will allow you to assess which register has the features that most closely meet your needs - but, more importantly, will ensure that your title to the aircraft is properly established and the ownership structure is matched to the requirements of the bank which is financing your purchase. As an example, some owners will find that financing opportunities with the highly developed Cayman Islands banking community are very attractive and as a consequence the Cayman Islands aircraft registry has a closely-related scheme for establishing security interest over that aircraft. Both the Cayman and Isle of Man registries have established a very strong reputation for swift and high quality service backed up by legal advice to make the registration process as trouble-free as possible. This particularly matters when complex financing arrangements have to be put in place and rapid response by the registration authority becomes essential. The Cayman authorities will normally be able to process a registration

104

WORLD AIRCRAFT SALES MAGAZINE – November 2013

application in six to eight weeks and register an aircraft mortgage within 24 hours. Their services include using one of their team of airworthiness surveyors to go and inspect an aircraft prior to registration.

WHY OFFSHORE? So, why would any owner of a business jet choose to register their aircraft in one of these offshore territories? As Charles Wilcox of the Cayman Islands Civil Aviation Authority explains “the reasons for owners using our register are many and various, but we aim to provide every one of them with a very high quality service supported by a worldwide team of surveyors and a 20-strong central secretariat which can support all their requirements”. The fact that an aircraft is registered in any of these territories will make little difference to their ability to operate anywhere in the world. For many owners, offshore registration provides a high degree of anonymity since their personal identity is protected from outside scrutiny. Wilcox stresses that the Cayman registry has very high standards of scrutiny over the integrity of register applicants, however, and will refuse registration if there is not clear evidence of legal sources of funding for purchases or questions over the personal legitimacy of the applicant. As part of the application procedure registrants will have to say who will be operating the aircraft and in what geographic location. They will have to explain what business they are conducting and what the intended use of the aircraft will be. www.AvBuyer.com

Offshore registration can also be tax efficient and, for instance, the territories of Aruba and the Cayman Islands both have no VAT, no Corporation tax and no Income Tax. Consequently, there can be large savings for owners who otherwise have to pay significant import and other taxes in their country of origin. UK owners registering in the Isle of Man will benefit from saving on insurance premium tax, for example. There will also be operational considerations such as crew flight duty limitations which will vary between authorities and may influence the choice of registry. For owners of new Bell 429 helicopters there is likely to be a benefit from using the Isle of Man compared with registration in an EASA or FAA regulated country. The Isle of Man has adopted the certification basis approved in Canada which allows the Bell 429 to operate at a gross weight of 7,500 lbs, whereas the FAA has only mandated the helicopter to fly at the lower 7,000 lbs takeoff weight. This can be very significant for owners who need the extra fuel capacity which the higher weight permits. Many owners of business aircraft will want to operate them through a management company and there is a wide choice of suitable operators. However, if one has an offshore-registered aircraft it will be necessary to ensure that your management company has the appropriate authority to handle it. Tom Wells, General Manager at Farnborough, UKbased Gama Aviation explains, “We work closely with offshore registration authorities ❯ Aircraft Index see Page 4

to ensure that we hold all necessary approvals including those from the Isle of Man, the Cayman Islands and Bermuda”.

THE TIP OF THE ICEBERG The actual registration of the aircraft is merely the tip of the iceberg, however. The primary purpose of any of the aircraft registries is to ensure that your aircraft is operated safely, so each offshore registry sets down operational rules and airworthiness requirements for the aircraft under its control. The Cayman register, for example, is subject to local law but comes under British delegated jurisdiction and the actual registration processes follow the methods used by the British CAA. Aircraft on the Cayman register are governed by The Air Navigation Order (Overseas Territories) 2001, which is a UK statutory instrument extended to overseas territories. This is backed up by local regulations which mirror UK regulation including requirements for aircraft mortgages. The offshore registers must also conform to the standards and recommended practices of ICAO (the International Civil Aviation Organisation) established under the 1944 ICAO Convention.

THE PERSONAL TOUCH As an added bonus, there is scope, particularly with the Isle of Man register, for personalising registrations. The 400-odd registered aircraft in the Isle of Man include combinations such as M-ACHO, M-ADAM -

106

WORLD AIRCRAFT SALES MAGAZINE – November 2013

and both M-ICKY and M-OUSE. In this register it is possible to transfer a “cherished” registration from one aircraft to another and, for instance, M-ARIE has been used on three different aircraft. These offshore registries are primarily private registers for individual and corporate owners - so they are generally not open to commercial airlines - although in some cases airliners will be eligible for registration. The Aruba registry, favoured by Russian owners, has just over 50 aircraft on its books. It recently accepted an Airbus A330 owned by International Lease Finance Corporation (ILFC) while in transition for lease from Malaysia Airline System to Aerolineas Argentinas. The registries of the Cayman Islands has a minimum aircraft size restriction of 5,700 kg MTOW which means that aircraft smaller than a Citation CJ2 are normally not accepted. The Isle of Man register has the same gross weight limitation - but has been known to accept smaller aircraft where they are owned by the island’s residents. The registry also accepts twin-engined turbine helicopters with more than a dozen on the register. As with other larger established registers, the offshore authorities have to ensure airworthiness and, once an application for registration has been submitted a surveyor will need to inspect the aircraft so as to approve a certificate of airworthiness. This will include approval of the aircraft’s flight manuals, secure licensing of aircrew and the www.AvBuyer.com

arrangements made for maintenance of the aircraft with an approved MRO. The authority will require proof of insurance, evidence of lease or ownership, and an export CofA from the aircraft’s previous registry. Once the aircraft has been successfully registered, the offshore registry will establish on-going arrangements which include appointment of a technical coordinator who will be responsible for confirming the continuing airworthiness of the aircraft and handling all associated operational matters. This will include ensuring that annual Certificate of Airworthiness renewals are carried out to the laid down standards and making sure that ICAO mandated safety oversight programmes are adhered to. Registries such as the Cayman Islands employ a team of inspectors who are on hand to travel to any part of the world when aircraft have airworthiness issues or are involved in accidents or major incidents. Meanwhile the Isle of Man has a sixteenstrong group of surveyors resident in the UK, the Isle of Man, Switzerland and the USA. Essentially, all of these offshore registries provide a very efficient service to owners of turbine business aircraft and, while it may not be suitable for every owner, the benefits of this kind of registration are well worth exploring for some with the aid of an appropriate advisor.

FEDERAL SHUT-DOWNS

Federal Shut-Downs

Is Our Own Government Holding us Hostage? by Andrew C. Bradley sually the word ‘hostage’ in relation to aviation conjures up very negative images of jetliners being overtaken by trained terrorists. But as we approached the annual NBAA gathering in Las Vegas, aviation (and many other industries besides) seemed to be held hostage by an entirely different group. As I penned these words, we were in the midst of a standoff between the Republicans and the Democrats that had shut down key sectors of the government and furloughed over 800,000 federal workers. There was an irony looking back to just a few short weeks prior when people felt it wouldn’t affect them because they didn’t work for the federal government. The shutdown really demonstrates how ingrained the federal government has become in our lives.

108

WORLD AIRCRAFT SALES MAGAZINE – November 2013

Virtually everyone is somehow being negatively impacted. And as can be expected, the most regulated industries are the ones getting hit the hardest—aviation possibly sits atop the list, but examples across many other industries are numerous. Just at the cusp of a housing recovery that decimated the global economy just a few short years ago, homebuyers can’t close on their loans, and sellers can’t move out. Passport renewals are impossible for those wishing to travel overseas as the office is closed. Perhaps you wanted to visit a federal park—sorry, it’s closed. And if you extended your taxes, you still had to pay them and file by October 15th but no one at the IRS was actually working to collect your money. Some of these services might seem insignificant, but consider the following statewww.AvBuyer.com

ment about our nation’s security from James Clapper, Director of National Intelligence: “The danger here will accumulate over time” as 70 of the civilian intelligence workforce has been furloughed. Important intelligence information is being missed and the potential threat looms large.

BRINGING IT HOME The effects on Business Aviation, Commercial Aviation and the aerospace defense sectors is already being felt in one of the industries which was hit hardest by the financial crisis only five years ago. Business Aviation is still struggling in the aftermath, and as I write, the impact is being felt immediately this time too. With the FAA shut-down aircraft sales/closings are being halted, putting many deals at risk of collapse. In our industry it’s become hard enough over the past few years to keep deals together and now we face many of them not closing because we’ve furloughed a desk staff-member at the FAA, meaning aircraft can’t be registered. International deals are at risk, too, because aircraft can’t be deregistered here. Existing sellers of “N” registered aircraft on the market are losing international buyers for the same reason according to NBAA’s website (www.nbaa.org). Favorable financing terms which are locked in for a specific period of time could expire if they don’t close, costing buyers more money. The same could occur with 1031 tax exchanges which expire during this period. Significant business is being lost for repairs, refurbishments and upgrades at service centers expected to perform work once these deals closed. Again, NBAA’s website offers that roughly 10,000 aircraft had registrations that expired during October. Those 10,000 aircraft will be grounded, with the knock-on effect of less demand for fuel, repairs and other industry services. Training Center Evaluations (TCE) offices will be shut down, stalling potential new pilot and recurrent pilot training sessions (thereby grounding many pilots who need the training during the time period). According to AIN, over 3,000 aviation inspectors were furloughed by the Department of Transportation (DOT), although by October 9th emergency measures had to be instituted to return some of these essential personnel. At the time of writing, not nearly enough had been put back to work, however. The effect on Avjet is already being felt. We have several aircraft deals we’re unable to close; several pilots who cannot get recurrent training; and several new aircraft that cannot be added to our badly needed charter operations. These are just some of the impacts being felt. Aircraft Index see Page 4

Andrew Bradley Oct_Bradley 21/10/2013 14:51 Page 2

FEDERAL SHUT-DOWNS Multiply this by the hundreds of industries across the United States and the impact could be severe if allowed to continue beyond a fortnight. And once the deadlock is resolved, things are unlikely to return to normal immediately. Backlogs may well prevent the normal resumption of service for at least a month or more, dependent on how long the debt ceiling negotiations drag on. As of mid-October, many large companies in defense and aerospace had already announced pending layoffs. Sikorsky Aircraft was forced to temporarily layoff up to 3,000 during October and United Technologies made a similar announcement, this time with up to 4,500 layoffs.

THE DEBT CEILING All the rhetoric and threats centered around one crucial date: October 17 - the date the Federal Government exhausts its ability to borrow money in the financial markets to fund its obligations which are now careering toward $17 Trillion dollars. NBC news reports the Treasury will have only about $30 Billion available after October 17, which would last a day or two on the interest payments owed on the $17 Trillion dollars.

As of this writing the financial markets seemed to be taking all of this in their stride with the so-called industry experts claiming the US will never be allowed to default on its debt. These same experts also predicted that the US Government and its regulators would never allow Lehman Brothers Bank to default back in 2008, before adjusting their forecast that the damage would be contained after it did default. As an industry employing 1.2 million people, and contributing billions of dollars to the US economy we are an important and strong voice in this debate. Your political leanings no longer matter in the debate. Republicans blame Democrats, and Democrats blame Republicans. The truth goes well beyond political boundaries in search of an answer to our problems. The answer to broken governance comes down to one simple fact: you and I are to blame if we don’t soon learn to vote for the appropriate set of politicians to lead our country out of this recurring mess. I wish I could say I am optimistic for a long-term resolution coming out of Congress by the time you read this towards the start of November – time will of course have served to affirm or negate those fears - but realistic

expectations are for another “kick the can down the road” solution that simply buys more time without fixing anything. I am hoping that October’s NBAA gathering in Las Vegas was fully packed with peers discussing the virtues of Business Aviation. I’m also eerily reminded of the last NBAA Convention back in 2008 when Congress failed to act—the chatter of that convention was of CNBC and the financial markets, and a somewhat empty convention center by the second and third day. Hopefully history will not have repeated itself again come November… ❯ Andrew C.

GLOBAL MARKET ROUND-UP - CHINA

PHENOM 300, THE NEWEST AIRCRAFT TYPE DELIVERED TO CHINA

Regional Round-Up: Market developments in China. by Mike Vines eptember was a very busy month for aviation-related conventions in the People’s Republic of China with three major events taking place. First was China Helicopter Exposition at Tianjin followed by two events in Beijing; CIBAS (Chinese International Business Aviation Show) and Aviation Expo China. Among the news stories spilling out of these events, Asian Sky Group (ASG) recently concluded four Airliner-sized corporate jet deal closures for Asian buyers within a week. The first was for the on-schedule outfitting acceptance of a new ACJ318 completed by Lufthansa Technik, destined for a Japanese client. The second was an agreement to oversee and manage an ACJ319

from green delivery through to its completed delivery to a Chinese buyer. The third was the sale of a pre-owned ACJ319 to a Chinese client; and the fourth was the agreement on a deal for a BBJ green delivery from Boeing for a Chinese client. The newest business jet aircraft type to be delivered to China, however, is an Embraer Phenom 300 destined for Erdos General Aviation Co., Ltd. this quarter. According to Embraer, Erdos is one of China’s top five growing general aviation companies and already operates a 19-ship fleet. Since February, Harbin Embraer Aircraft Industry Co. (HEAI) has taken 21 firm orders and five options for Embraer’s Legacy 650 in China, where the launch customer will be ICBC Financial Leasing Co. www.AvBuyer.com

HELICOPTER EXPOSITION Meanwhile, the second and very successful China Helicopter Exposition (CHE) goes from strength to strength. It was held at the airport centered Tianjin Free Trade Zone which – incidentally - is home to Airbus A320 production, Eurocopter, Avicopter, UTC Aerospace Systems and Thales. Tianjin was chosen to host this gathering because of its importance as the major centre of civil aviation investment in China. China’s central Government’s commitment is to expand its low-altitude airspace to the whole of China by 2015 and this is expected to increase the country’s civil helicopter fleet from just a few hundred to around 1,500 over the next 10 years. Because of this, helicopter orders across greater China are on the increase. ❯ Aircraft Index see Page 4

GLOBAL MARKET ROUND-UP - CHINA engine EC130 T2 has also been placed. About 140 Eurocopters are in service in China representing a 40% market share. In other helicopter news, China’s Capital Helicopters (part of the HNA Group) is planning to expand its fleet from nine to 30 helicopters in five years. It currently operates six AS350B3s, two EC135s and a Robinson R22. Two or three new helicopters will be added next year. The company was promoting its air tours during the 15th Aviation Expo China in September where visitors could register on site and go sightseeing by air – something that is becoming much easier thanks to the relaxation of low level air space rules. In terms of helicopter infrastructure, Zenisun Group signed an agreement with the Government of Xiangyang to establish a helicopter industry park in the city and plans to build a new general aviation airport there too. Zenisun Heliport Company, meanwhile, has built two helicopter airports in Fujian province, Ximen Xiajinwan Airport which is operational, while the construction of Fujian Zuqi Airport has been completed. Finally, Yifan Aero Science & Technology (aircraft and helicopter interior design and refurbishment company) is to expand its business internationally thanks to the rise in popularity of VIP helicopters in China. The company has been involved with the interior fits of all Chinese-built helicopters during that time, and is now offering its services to Bell Helicopter and Eurocopter for home and overseas markets.

In keeping with this expectation, AgustaWestland received orders for more than 20 helicopters of various civil types across China so far, and 20 more are to be added through distributorship agreements. AgustaWestland’s new distributor Sino-US Intercontinental Helicopter Investment Co. (a subsidiary of the Shanghai Zenisun Investment Group) entered aviation in 2006 and now offers helicopter services and airport development. The agreement includes a commitment for five AW169s, five AW139 intermediate twins and five of the large AW189s, signed at the June Paris Air Show. An additional five orders were added at CHE for single-engined AW119Ke and Grand New helicopters. AgustaWestland believes that eventually its AW609 civil

tiltrotor will also appeal to Chinese operators because of its unique combination of speed and range. Eurocopter has sold its fifth VIP ‘Mercedes Benz’ EC145 worldwide and the first in Asia to a Chinese helicopter operator, Henan New World Civil Aviation Co. The company also ordered a VIP AS350B3e Ecureuil, while existing customer China Kingho has ordered three AS350B3e Ecureuil helicopters. Eurocopter deliveries in China last year included seven Ecureuils for utility work, seven EC135s for corporate missions, and an EC120 and two EC135s to a private hospital for emergency medical services. Three EC155 Dauphins were also delivered. The first Chinese order for the widebody singlewww.AvBuyer.com

Moving away from the rotorcraft industry, Embraer and Bombardier both presented market outlooks for China. Embraer’s Outlook (2014-2023), released at CIBAS, forecasts 805 executive jets will be ordered by the Chinese market over the next decade with the large-cabin business jet class representing 51% of demand, worth 78% of the total value of deliveries. Embraer maintains a favorable forecast for the Chinese executive aviation market potential, based on comprehensive studies of the country’s economic scenario. China’s fleet of executive jets has experienced an average annual expansion of 27%, fueled by a 26% growth of the wealthiest population from 2008 to 2012, according to data released by the Hurun Report. The market outlook also highlights infrastructure improvements as catalysts for China’s executive aviation growth with the number of FBOs expected to increase from the current five to nine. Bombardier’s Business Aircraft Market Forecast (2013 to 2032) is even more optimistic for the Greater China region, even though it only focuses on the three business Aircraft Index see Page 4

GLOBAL MARKET ROUND-UP - CHINA jet categories in which Bombardier competes and excludes the Very Light and Large Corporate Airliner categories. In essence, Bombardier says that China will become the third largest market of business jets (behind North America and Europe) with 1,000 aircraft deliveries predicted between 2013 to 2022 and 1,420 deliveries between 2023 and 2032. Demand for business jets should increase considerably in China as barriers to business jet ownership and operation are gradually removed, as the opening of airspace for civil aviation is accelerated, and as the significant investment in airport infrastructure begins to pay dividends. Bombardier’s forecast for business jet penetration predicts that fleet per population of 100 million will grow from 24 to 201 over the next 20 years, equivalent to 2,420 aircraft deliveries. And because the market is relatively new, retirements will account for less than 3% of the country’s overall fleet during the 20 year period. The fleet will increase from 290 aircraft in 2012 to 2,640 aircraft by the end of 2032 and is projected to account for nearly 9% of the worldwide business jet fleet by that date. For the purposes of its forecast Bombardier separates the Asia Pacific region from both Greater China and India and says average annual GDP growth for the next 20 years in Asia Pacific is anticipated to average around 2.4%.

FAVORABLE FORECAST MAINTAINED FOR CHINA’S BUSINESS AVIATION MARKET

AND FINALLY… For the here and now, Bombardier Aerospace has teamed with Beijing Airlines to provide AOG support for current Bombardier business aircraft operators at the Beijing Capital International Airport. Beijing Airlines’ expertise is backed by the considerable maintenance, overhaul and repair resources of Air China, China’s flagship carrier and one of Beijing Airline's principal investors. The agreement reinforces Bombardier’s presence in China, which includes its Mobile Response Team which will continue to support AOG service in the region. Business aircraft operators in the country also have access to Bombardier-authorized service facilities with Metrojet Limited in Hong Kong; Shanghai Hawker Pacific Business Aircraft Service in Shanghai; ExecuJet Haite Aviation Services China Co.

THE AVIATION LEADERSHIP ROUNDTABLE

Thank You t is often difficult to let go of things that have meant so much to you by saying goodbye, or ending a chapter in one’s life. I find myself at that juncture in my career. This past October I left the Board of Directors of the National Business Aviation Association. In that capacity I was also the Chairman of the Associate Member Advisory Council (AMAC). I wanted to devote this month’s article to that wonderful ten-year ride and be sure to raise the awareness of this association and specifically of the AMAC and the work and representation of our industry that is accomplished daily by my fellow board members and AMAC partners. For those who are new to our industry or just need a quick refresher, the NBAA Mission Statement is: ‘To foster an environment that allows Business Aviation to thrive in the United States and around the world’. In this capacity the association has huge reach to accomplish this mission. The Statement of Purpose is just as inclusive and far reaching: ‘Founded in 1947 and based in Washington, DC, the National Business Aviation Association (NBAA) is the leading organization for companies that rely on General Aviation aircraft to help make their businesses more efficient, productive and successful. The Association represents more than 9,000 companies and provides more than 100 products and services to the Business Aviation community, including the NBAA Business Aviation Convention & Exhibition, the world's largest civil aviation trade show.’ The membership is divided between those members whose designation is that of Corporate or Business Member, Associate Member and Affiliate Member. The Corporate and Business Member owns or operates USregistered aircraft (primarily not for hire) as a transportation aid in the conduct of its business or activities. Each of those categories has qualifications that are on the NBAA website under membership. The Associate Member derives 50 percent or more of its total sales volume from the field of Business Aviation, does not qualify for Corporate or Business Membership or Affiliate status, or has a pervasive interest in

114

WORLD AIRCRAFT SALES MAGAZINE – November 2013

Business Aviation. Finally, the Affiliate Member meets the qualifications for Corporate or Business Membership, except that it operates aircraft registered exclusively outside the United States. The membership is divided fairly evenly between the complete Corporate and Business Category including Affiliate Members and the Associate Member category. As Chairman of the AMAC, my mandate was to guide and provide leadership to this segment. The Associate Member Advisory Council has been established to: (1) define the relationship among all segments of the Membership and to recommend programs that would improve communications between those segments, and (2) advise the NBAA Board of Directors on areas of interest to the Associate Membership. This position allowed me to better understand the depth and breadth of our industry and work to engage this membership segment and its unique needs to the overall NBAA Membership and the industry at large. Now I say goodbye. October marked my tenth year of involvement with the AMAC and the Board. I have made the most wonderful friendships as well as business relationships. I do not take the position and the access to these great leaders lightly. I believe this position has strengthened my own visibility to the industry but also the very segment that I represented on the AMAC and the Board. I was the first aircraft broker to have been invited on AMAC and the Board and one key element that I added to each of our board meetings was an insight to our market place. So much of what happens in our industry daily centers around the health and well-being of the aircraft sales activity, not only transactions but also valuations. I found this group to be extremely interested in the market shifts, especially in the past five years, as so much has changed in the transaction, supply and value side of our business. I think I helped shape a more professional face to the brokerage side of our industry. I hope I have forged a new value to who we are and what we can bring to the table when engaged in a transaction. Leaving this board brings a distinct sadwww.AvBuyer.com

ness as well as huge feelings of accomplishment. I went to work in this position daily to increase the visibility of the Associate Member to the full board. This greater visibility I know translated to bigger discussions about the needs and desires of the Associate Member. I must say that if it were not for the President and CEO, Ed Bolen and his leadership, this discussion would never have been so robust and well received. Ed worked tirelessly to promote the needs of the Associate Member and blend these into the overall goals and Strategic Action plans of the NBAA. He as well as all of the staff at NBAA and the Board care for, and embrace the Associate membership. Their awareness is keen to this segment. For that I am proud and feel as if I am leaving with a rich legacy of accomplishment. And now I say thank you. Thank you to my fellow board members and AMAC members. Thank you to the tremendous staff of NBAA. Every ounce of my being sincerely thanks you all and wishes you continued success and accomplishment to our association and industry! ❯ Jay Mesinger is the CEO and Founder of Mesinger Jet Sales.

AVINODE View US/European Business Aviation Flight Data Both Europe and the United States have returned year-over-year declines in actual business jet flights for the first nine months of 2013, compared to the same period in 2012, Avinode reports. The U.S turned in a marginal -0.3% decline, while Europe has seen a -2.6% decline to date. The northern half of Europe has borne the brunt of the decline this year (-3.9%) in actual flights. Southern Europe saw a lighter -1.8% decline for the first nine months of 2013. The Light Jet category, which includes the Entry Level, Light and Super Light jet sub-categories saw significant reductions in traffic over the past two years due, in large part, to the waning popularity of the Light Jet sub-category. The Midsize Jet category, (encompassing Mid- and Super-Midsize jets) saw similar reductions on the continent in recent years. The one standout in Europe has been the Heavy Jet category, featuring the Heavy and Ultra-Long-Range jet sub-categories which are popular jets within the region. Actual flights on Ultra Long Range jets increased by 7.7% between 2011 and 2012, and 13.7% between the first nine months of 2012 and the same period in 2013. The U.S. regions experienced mixed fortunes this year-to-date. The Midwest tolerated

the largest decline (-3.2% reduction in actual flights). The West performed the best of the U.S. regions (+1.2%). The Northeast and South returned static numbers for the year-to-date. The Northeast shadows the Midwest (-0.6% decline in actual flights), while the South trails the West (+0.4% growth). The U.S. also saw declines this year with regards to category popularity, particularly in the Light and Midsize range. The Light Jet category, which grew between 2011 and 2012, declined during the first nine months of 2013. This is tempered by strong growth in the Entry Level Jets. The Midsize Jets saw marginal growth between 2011 and 2012 but saw a reversal of fortunes year-to-date. The Heavy Jet category saw big increases in the U.S. market during the first nine months of 2013, mainly due to the increasing popularity of Ultra Long Range jets in the region. The growing popularity in the U.S. spurred a 14.6% increase in actual flights this year-to-date in comparison to the same period last year. Asia & Latin America: Business jet departures to Asia and Latin America are up yearover-year in both the United States and Europe.

Cautious on Recovery approaching escape velocity for new jet demand. JP Morgan expects little change to OEMs’ long-standing message of caution when they report Q3, but is looking to NBAA this year more for new product launches and insight on competitive positioning rather than information on overall demand. Dassault’s Falcon 5X could be this year’s highest profile launch joining a crowded arena including the Challenger 300/350, Gulfstream G280, Legacy 500 and Citation X. The launch of a Gulfstream G450 replacement is also possible, but JP Morgan suspects this is more likely to occur next year.

JP MORGAN View .J.P. Morgan’s latest Business Jet monthly indicates a marginally better picture but momentum is insufficient for the firm to abandon its caution. US flight ops growth is the key positive trend seen, and a fifth consecutive yearover-year increase was registered in August, while the three-month moving average is at its highest level since mid 2011. JP Morgan estimates that young jet inventory fell another 40 bps in September and is now below the eightyear average - indicating less direct competition for new aircraft from used ones. Used pricing remains the leading concern, and while there was a modest uptick in September, the trend recently has been downward. All in, the data is looking marginally better but not enough to convince JP Morgan that we are

increased marginally to 10.3% of the fleet in September and has remained in the 10.1-10.3% range for eight months. However, JP Morgan estimates the proportion of the toddler and pre-K fleet (0-5 year old aircraft) available for sale fell 40 bps to 6.3% in September, and is now down 110 bps since June. This improvement in young aircraft inventories in recent months has been broad-based. Average asking price increased 0.4% monthover-month in September. This was the first sequential increase following four declines of more than 1%, though the data among models was mixed. Heavy jets pushed prices higher, while Light and Medium jet prices continued to slide, falling -3.3% and -2.3%, respectively. Flight ops: These grew for a fifth straight month in August. US flight ops grew 2.4% y/y in August, bringing YTD growth to 1.5%. August growth was down from 5% in July, but the three-month MA continues to improve. Flight ops remain -17% below August 2007 levels so there is plenty of runway for improvement. European flight ops are weaker but have been flattish the past two months. / More from www.jpmorgan.com

Activity was weighed down by big falls in Germany (-4%) and Switzerland (-5%), and also declines in the UK and France although other leading markets (Italy and Spain) were up on 2012. A number of peripheral regions saw growth in September, including: Scandinavia; Baltic; Benelux; CIS (exc. Russia); and some parts of the Med (including Tunisia, Morocco and Israel, but not Turkey which lost -14% activity YOY). Europe’s inbound flight activity continued to grow from the Middle East, and bounced back from North America, while also being up from Brazil and India, but down from China and West Africa. VLJs continue to make headway, in contrast to the heavily declining light jet and prop segments. Super-midsize jets also prospered, at the expense of midsize aircraft. Demand for ULR jets also surged, almost 20%. Competition for short sectors is being won by VLJs and Pistons, while on the longest sectors, ULR jets flew 23% more and bizliners -22% less. Overall in terms of flights, Beechcraft fleet usage was down -1%; Cessna -4%; Embraer -12%; and Socata -15%. On a more positive note, in terms of hours flown, Bombardier was up 6%; Gulfstream 7%; and Pilatus 2%. The Mustang was one of the stand-out successes in September within Europe, being

6% up YOY and 10% up in charter flights (up there with the King Air 200 and CJ2). In private flights the Gulfstream GV/G500 was up 16%, whereas surprisingly the Global Express lost -8%. Richard Koe, Managing Director of WINGX Advance, summarized, “The August YOY

At M.80, the Falcon 2000S has a range of 3,350 nm (standard aircraft, 6 pax, NBAA IFR reserves, 85% Boeing Annual Winds). The balanced field length is 4,325 ft (SL, ISA) at a MTOW of 41,000 lb; it climbs directly to 41,000 feet in 19 minutes, reaches a mid-cruise altitude of 45,000 feet and offers a certified ceiling of 47,000 feet. The aircraft can also land at 95% of its MTOW, or about 39,300 lb, enabling it to tanker more fuel. Additionally, with an approach speed of only 107 knots, the Falcon 2000S is capable of landing at airports with challenging, steep approaches and short runways. At a typical end-of-flight profile, the Falcon 2000S needs just 2,315 feet of runway – better than super midsize jets and even comparable to a typical turboprop aircraft

Tri-Jets Range Map 7X=5950nm 900EX=4500nm 900DX=4100nm 50EX=3267nm

When you own one of the Tri-Jets, you own the best built business jet in the sky; and the Federal Aviation Administration has certified them with no life limits for any part of the airframe structure. They exhibit noteworthy handling manners, superb poise throughout the operating envelope and light but not oversensitive control feel. In addition, Tri-Jets have set world and national records for distance, speed, time to climb and sustained altitude. Aircraft safety is determined by reliability and redundancy. In the event of an engine failure a reduction of climb rate, speed and altitude occur. Critical engine-driven systems may be compromised including the hydraulic, electrical and bleed-air systems which draw their power from the aircraftâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s engines. The FAA emphasizes redundancy more than the number of engines for flight safety over water; although there is a relationship between the two. Very High levels of safety are achieved with the Tri-Jets; the 900 for example has two hydraulic systems that are powered by hydraulic power from four sources; three engine-driven hydraulic pumps plus a standby pump powered electrically. The left-hand and right-hand engines provide power for the right hydraulic system; and the center engine supplies power for the right hydraulic system with backup from the standby pump. One system can supply enough hydraulic power to operate the aircraft and land safely if a system fails. An erroneous conclusion is that Tri-Jets cost more to operate than competitive twin-jets. Many long-range twin-jets use excessively large engines and supporting structure. Tri-Jets with their effective configuration, utilize smaller more fuel efficient engines. With fuel efficient engines, Tri-Jets carry less fuel than twin-jets. This results in a reduction of weight and operating costs. Smaller engines, the Tri-Jets aerodynamic improvement and lower operating weight culminates in an aircraft that burns less fuel than many heavier twin-jets. Tri-Jets have earned a stellar reputation among owners and operators; and usually have higher resale values than the competition.

If you are considering the sale or acquisition of your business jet, call 21st Century Jet Corporation today for details before making a decision.
