Aircraft deal desk

The weekly short list of aircraft worth a closer look.

Our models score public listings of jets, helicopters and piston aircraft against comparable aircraft. Subscribe free, tell us what you want to buy or sell, and get introduced to an independent broker or dealer when you are ready.

01The AI score

How the score works.

Every aircraft gets a score from 0 to 100 that shows how its asking price compares with similar listings. Similar means same model and variant, adjusted for:

Age

Year of manufacture against the same model and variant.

Time

Airframe and engine hours, and engine-program status where listed.

Equipment

Avionics, upgrades and interior details stated in the listing.

Asking price

Compared with similar aircraft listed in the same period.

Scores use only what sellers publish, and listing data can be incomplete or out of date. A score is information, not an appraisal, inspection or advice. Always arrange a pre-purchase inspection and use qualified professionals.
