Not Your Average Prebuy


The market valuation of the aircraft is also an important consideration in the pre-buy process, as it provides insight into the aircraft's current market value and helps the buyer determine if the asking price is reasonable. The market valuation takes into account factors such as the aircraft's make and model, age, configuration, maintenance history, and flight hours.

By conducting a thorough aircraft pre-buy evaluation, the buyer can obtain a comprehensive understanding of the aircraft's current market value and make an informed decision about the purchase. This helps ensure that the buyer is obtaining the best market value for their investment and that they are acquiring a safe, reliable, and suitable aircraft that meets their needs and requirements.

Flight instruction may also be included in the pre-buy process, particularly if the buyer is purchasing an aircraft for the first time or if the aircraft type is new to them. Flight instruction provides the buyer with the opportunity to receive hands-on training and gain experience flying the aircraft. This helps ensure that the buyer is fully familiar with the aircraft's systems and handling characteristics and that they are able to safely operate the aircraft once the purchase is complete.


The pre-buy process typically includes several key steps, including:

  • Initial evaluation: The buyer starts by evaluating the aircraft's specification and performance data, including its age, type, configuration, maintenance history, and flight hours.

  • Inspection: A thorough inspection of the aircraft is conducted by a qualified mechanic or inspector. This inspection includes a review of the aircraft's exterior, interior, systems, and engines.

  • Logbook review: The logbook, which contains a detailed record of all maintenance, inspections, and repairs performed on the aircraft, is thoroughly reviewed to ensure that all required maintenance has been performed and that there are no unresolved issues.

  • Flight evaluation: The aircraft is flown by a qualified test pilot to evaluate its performance and handling characteristics. This includes a check of its systems, engines, and avionics.

  • Records review: The aircraft's maintenance and inspection records are thoroughly reviewed to ensure that the aircraft is in compliance with all applicable regulations and standards.

  • Contract review: The final purchase agreement is reviewed and negotiated, and any contingencies are addressed.


The pre-buy process is a comprehensive and time-consuming process, but it is an important investment in the buyer's future aircraft ownership experience. It helps ensure that the buyer is acquiring a safe, reliable, and suitable aircraft that meets their needs and requirements, and that the purchase process is conducted in a transparent and fair manner.
