How an acquisition runs
Nine stages, and you follow all of them
Every stage carries a document, a date and a name. Nothing moves forward because somebody says it has.
- 01
Requirement definition
Mission profile, runway constraints, range with real payload, budget including the first two years of ownership.
- 02
Market search
Every candidate, advertised or not, with our valuation beside each asking price.
- 03
Shortlist
Three to five ranked aircraft, with the reason each one is on the list and the finding that would take it off.
- 04
Letter of intent
Price, deposit, inspection scope and walk-away conditions agreed before anybody travels.
- 05
Pre-purchase inspection
At a facility with no commercial relationship to the seller. Discrepancy list priced, then negotiated.
- 06
Escrow
Funds and title with an independent escrow agent. We never touch client money.
- 07
Closing
Bill of sale, deregistration, registration, lien search and release, insurance bound.
- 08
Delivery
Ferry flight, import, VAT position, crew familiarisation, handover of the operating manual.
- 09
First year
Maintenance plan, budget against actuals, valuation refreshed at twelve months.
