AINsight: Putting Market Change into Perspective
The preowned business aircraft market has normalized after a frenetic two years, offering more choices for buyers but not likely lower prices.

Let’s start with a simple role-playing game. Watching the clouds go by, you could either be sitting on the fence looking up at the puffy white clouds roll by overhead or you could be at 40,000 feet above the ground watching the clouds below as you fly overhead at 500 miles per hour. 

The preowned business aircraft market is changing, no doubt about it. The frenzy of the last 2.5 years is dying down. Buyers are worried that if they buy now, they will miss even better pricing as the headwinds of our economy and the sobering effects of more supply and longer days on the market create uncertainty.
