Aircraft finance firm Global Jet Capital (Booth T131) will launch an aircraft sales division after new research revealed that 11.5 percent of the world’s fleet of midsize- to heavy business aircraft are available for sale. The aircraft finance company partnered with Jet Support Services Inc. (JSSI, Booth G051) to provide a six-month unscheduled maintenance package with technical support. It also partnered with FlightSafety International to provide pilot and maintenance training programs.

Currently, there are 1,500 midsize to heavy business aircraft available for sale. There are 968 available in North America; 237 in Europe; 157 in Asia; 65 in South America; 41 in Africa; 18 in Australia and Oceania; and 14 in other regions. The aircraft available through Global Jet Capital’s aircraft sales division are ones that the company has already provided financing. Through this sales division, Global Jet aims to match the right aircraft to a client’s needs.

“With a relatively large number of large business aircraft on the preowned market, anybody wanting to sell an aircraft has to present the best possible package to prospective buyers. Our new aircraft sales division does just that, and we are confident that what we can offer is unmatched by anyone in the industry. Our aim is to become the first port of call for anyone looking for a preowned business aircraft,” stated Dave Labrozzi, chief operating officer of Global Jet Capital.
