Global Sky Quarterly

Global Sky Quarterly – 2022 Q4

The pre-owned business jet market has seen some stabilization with asking prices and a decline in inventory stimulating increased demand, leading to an increase in transactions. This can be seen the most with certain Gulfstream (G200, G450, G550, G650), Bombardier (Challenger 604/605 & Global 5000) and Dassault Falcon models (2000 Series and 7X), where more transactions are occurring relative to the number for sale, and transactions are requiring less time on the market for sellers to complete.

The pre-owned helicopter market has seen a slight increase in worldwide aircraft transactions during the final quarter of 2022 versus the previous quarter. The most in-demand helicopters include Airbus (H125, H130, H145), Bell (407, 429) and Leonardo 139.

From the Asia-Pacific survey, we find that purchase intentions remain high, particularly for pre-owned Large cabin jets. Meanwhile, the market is now perceived as increasingly balanced, as inventory is slowly catching up with market demand.
