While the used business jet inventory continues to grow from its near-record lows a year ago, pricing is still rising in most cases.

The number of business jets available on the market is continuing to slowly increase, according to the latest report from Jefferies Equity Research. The 922 available aircraft this month represented a 59 percent rise from the near-record lows seen a year ago, with inventory now accounting for 3.6 percent of the total fleet, including all models and vintages.

According to Jefferies’ analysts, that inventory is still well below the five-year average of 5.6 percent. For aircraft currently in production or out of production for less than seven years, inventory increased by 93 percent year-over-year, standing at 2.9 percent of that segment.
