Your technical rep on every deal

Buy-side or sell-side, light jet to large cabin. We survey the aircraft before the LOI, build and run the pre-buy, classify every finding, and send you and your client a written update every evening, so the deal closes on facts instead of surprises.

What we do for your deal

From first look to delivery, and after

One team for the whole transaction, on either side of it. Reports can be shared with you, your client, their attorney, lender and insurer.

Questions brokers ask

FAQ

Who do you work for on a deal?

The client who engages us: the buyer, the seller, or you on their behalf. We say which side we represent in writing before we start, and we don't represent both sides of the same transaction.

How fast can you get there?

On site within 48 hours in most cases, anywhere in the U.S. or abroad. Short-notice mobilization is a flat $500.

Do you perform the inspection?

No. The OEM service center or repair station performs and certifies the work. We build the workscope, watch it, verify every finding and invoice line, and protect your client's interest. That independence is the point.

Survey or full PPI?

The survey is a quick, records-based look before the LOI, with no panels off. If the aircraft is worth pursuing, the survey becomes the starting point for the PPI workscope, so nothing is wasted.

Can we share your report?

Yes, with the client, broker, attorney, lender and insurer. Reports reflect the records provided and the areas inspected on the report date, and they don't guarantee the aircraft's condition or value.

What does it cost?

$4,500 flat for the pre-LOI survey; $1,500 a day for technical rep work; travel at cost with receipts. See the full rate card and sample estimates on our technical services page.
