Despite minimal upticks in month-over-month asking prices for used jets and piston single aircraft, asking prices are trending downward across all aircraft categories in Sandhills Global marketplaces. The newest aviation market reports from Sandhills show asking prices falling year over year for used jets (down 4.96%), piston single aircraft (down 0.08%), turboprop aircraft (down 0.7%), and Robinson piston helicopters (down 0.25%).
Jet and turboprop aircraft inventory levels, meanwhile, have increased while piston single inventory continues to decline. “With inventory increasing across most segments, sales are continuing but have definitely slowed,” says Controller Department Manager Brant Washburn.
