Aircraft Management

If you are increasingly fed-up with travelling on congested roads and inefficient railways and the interminable delays at busy airports you’ll be considering aircraft ownership. You’ll have recognised the major benefits it offers: safety, security, efficient and cost-effective use of time, and the stress-relieving convenience of making travel arrangements fit your business or private requirements, and not the other way round. If this is a new venture for you or your organisation, you’ll want to be sure that you get it right.
Let us help you to make the correct choices so that your aircraft ownership experience becomes a pleasure by providing you with a tailored programme which ensures that selection, acquisition, maintenance and operational issues are handled professionally and efficiently. We’ll provide as much, or as little, assistance as you require to ensure that your aviation requirements are met and that you, your business partners or your family enjoy the full advantages of corporate or private aviation to make travel a pleasure instead of a chore.
We have no affiliation to any manufacturers, suppliers or agents so you can be assured that your requirements are subject to independent and rigorous review.
Analysis of Customer Requirements
We can help identify the optimum aircraft type for you or your organisation’s specific needs: from light single-piston aircraft, to helicopter, to trans-Atlantic corporate jet for short, frequent journeys or long-distance travel.
Discuss with us your travel destinations, passenger numbers, equipment and luggage, business vs. leisure mix, frequency of travel, and budget. We’ll advise which aircraft would meet your requirements and how best it might be operated.
You’ll need to look at operating base, hangarage, crewing, maintenance facilities and operational support and our in-depth knowledge of the industry will help ensure all factors are considered.
Aircraft Management Selection
Once you have made your aircraft type selection we’ll research pricing structure and carry out a marketplace survey. We’ll identify candidate aircraft and advise whether they are equipped for the flight regime appropriate to your travel requirements and draw up a short-list for your consideration.
Survey and Purchase
When you’ve narrowed down your choice our experts can conduct engineering, airworthiness and regulatory compliance surveys and arrange a test flight. We’ll offer purchase advice and, when the deal is done, ensure that collection or delivery is completed with the utmost efficiency.
Maintenance Management
Aircraft maintenance is predicated on usage (flying hours) and periodicity (6-monthly or annual) and its important to manage the process tightly so that airworthiness is not compromised and down-time doesn’t conflict with flying requirements. We can undertake the management process, liase with an approved maintenance provider, ensure compliance with airworthiness directives and service bulletins, and help to keep your valuable asset in tip-top condition and, of course, at its optimum resale value.
Crew Selection and Supervision
You may want to fly the aircraft yourself and, in this case, we can arrange type-rating training and test if required. But if you need a crew then you’ll want to be sure they are appropriately qualified and experienced and that they operate to the highest standards. Our unrivalled experience in the selection, training and continued supervision of pilots and crew in a wide range of military, public transport and test flying operations can be brought to bear so that your safety, and that of your colleagues or family, is in the best possible hands.
Operational Support
Depending on the nature of the flying, you and your crew may want support for destination airfield selection, flight routing and planning, ground transport, catering, fuelling and all the other matters that need consideration for a smooth running aviation operation. Let our team ensure that your aircraft ownership experience achieves its full potential.
