What is the Anatomy of an Aircraft Appraisal?

THE AIRCRAFT APPRAISAL IS A VALUABLE AVIATION/FINANCIAL TOOL:

The Banker, the appraisal documents the value and condition of the aircraft. The appraisal also supports the banks collateral position in the aircraft loan.

The Seller, the appraisal gives them the confidence of knowing the current fair market value of their aircraft.

The Buyer, the aircraft appraisal is an impartial independent professional opinion as to the value of the particular aircraft they are planning to purchase. Further, the appraisal can assist in expediting the sale of the aircraft because the buyer and seller know the market value and relative condition of the aircraft through the independent professional appraisal.
