The International Aircraft Dealers Association (IADA) capped off a busy year for the organization as the preowned aircraft market closed out 2025 on the upswing. IADA said it reinforced its role in the global aircraft resale sector through its strategic partnerships, market intelligence, leadership appointments, and philanthropic initiatives. This came with a backdrop of strong transaction volume, rising market confidence, and expanded global reach.

“Throughout 2025, IADA released a full slate of quarterly market reports and a comprehensive Market Portrait & Forecast, documenting tightening inventories, resilient demand, and a sharp rise in optimism heading into year-end,” said IADA chair John Odegard, who is also partner and co-founder of 5x5 Trading. “These reports underscored IADA members’ dominant position in the preowned business aircraft marketplace and their ability to navigate a market adjusting to increasing new aircraft deliveries, marketplace disruptions, and evolving buyer expectations.”
