Aircraft Sourcing
Skyworld Aviation has a number of regular clients for which the company sources aircraft, either for purchase or lease. Current projects include satisfying requirements for 30-120 seat aircraft as well as narrowbody aircraft. Although our niche remains the regional aircraft market, requirements for other types of aircraft can easily be taken care of.
Aircraft Remarketing
Skyworld Aviation acts as an exclusive aircraft marketing agent for a number of clients. The company achieves its success through using the team’s combined detailed market knowledge and meticulous targeted marketing. Since its formation, Skyways Aviation has placed over 400 aircraft through a combination of lease and purchase transactions on behalf of aircraft owners worldwide. Current marketing mandates include a portfolio of ERJ 140 and ERJ 145 aircraft, Saab 340s, Fokker 50s and ATR aircraft.
Aircraft Evaluation
With several members of the team having technical and manufacturer backgrounds, Skyworld Aviation is able to carry out in depth evaluations of competing aircraft types, provided on a consultancy basis. Clients for this service have included Air Baltic of Latvia, Blue1 of Finland and Eastern Airways of the UK, all ERAA Airline of the Year Award winners.
Aircraft Valuation
Based on a system of extensive market intelligence, Skyworld Aviation provides accurate and realistic aircraft valuations. The technical status and prevailing market conditions heavily influence any valuation – something which many valuation companies do not accurately reflect. A number of existing clients take advantage of this service.
Asset/Lease Management
Skyworld Aviation has the capability to manage aircraft lease portfolio’s, monitoring and dealing with commercial and technical issues as they arise. Typically such activity would include administering reserve claims, adjudicating on technical disputes and negotiating lease extensions or revisions. Skyways Express of Sweden has relied upon Skyworld Aviation’s fleet management services for many years, and continues to do so, particularly with the Fokker 50 fleet.
Contractual Agreements and Commercial Negotiations
Skyworld Aviation offers sound, practical commercial advice to facilitate the contractual process, and can carry out or assist with most forms of commercial negotiation based on extensive market knowledge. All aircraft lease and purchase contracts in the Skyways group of companies are dealt with by Skyways Aviation, and the majority of external clients benefit from this service.
