Member - National Aircraft Appraisers Association
Certified Senior Aircraft Appraisers
We Are A Texas Based Company Who Also appraise aircraft Throughout The United States.
We can provide either a Certified Appraisal or a Market Analysis of an aircraft's fair market value.
A Certified Appraisal is the only real way to determine an aircraft's actual market value. This is accomplished by a visual examination of the aircraft by a professional appraiser. The exterior is inspected for damage, corrosion, loose or missing fasteners, paint condition, airframe condition and tires condition. A check is made for oil and fluid leaks around engine and landing gears. The interior of cockpit, passenger area and baggage compartment is checked to determine the condition of seats, carpets, head and side panels, glass, glare shield, etc. A thorough search of the log books and records is made for the latest airworthiness advisories (AD’s), damage history, and for completeness of the log books, maintenance history, etc.. Every effort is made to accomplish this task in a time frame agreed on between appraiser and client.

A Market Value Analysis Provides a low cost method to estimate market value of an aircraft. The basic aircraft information is provided by the client but we will work with the client to insure the information provided is as accurate as possible without our actually visiting the aircraft. A Market Analysis is suitable for establishing or negotiating a purchase price for an aircraft. A Market Analysis will not be acceptable when dealing with government agencies, settling legal disputes or for financing purposes since the the information about the aircraft is submitted by an "interested party."

A Computerized Assessment of Value is used for both Certified Appraisals and Market Analysis, the information collected is then incorporated into the NAAA database which uses monthly issued factual, current sales data on over 10,000 aircraft makes and models, 12,000 Avionics components, and 2,000 Engines to give our client the most up-to-date market values.
