Last updated: June 7, 2026 Leasing is a proven method of maximizing the net present value (NPV) of your capital over time. This is why the largest aviation and non-aviation-companies utilize leasing. We allow you to conserve capital, focus investment on customer outcomes, staff and address unforeseeable asset depreciation.
We get it. We’ve started Part 141 schools, worked with all aircraft manufacturers and have a deep understanding of flight school economics. We are passionate aviators ourselves with unique insight into the financial needs of flight schools.
Let us contribute to your next capital campaign. We offer sale-leaseback programs that allow you to access capital in your existing fleet equity, without giving up any aircraft. You get an immediate cash infusion to keep up with demand, buy new aircraft, hire more CFIs.
Advantages to leasing an aircraft:
Little to no upfront capex
Lease payments are 100% deductible
No residual value risk
Upgrade options available
Options to purchase, renew, or return
Million-dollar question - Where is your capital best allocated?
