Aircraft Leveraging
Can Joining an Exclusive Club Be Affordable?
Yes, and we can show you how. Of all the toys in the world, an airplane is perhaps most expensive due largely to FAA regulations, fuel prices, and the high cost of airplane maintenance and flight crews. But that doesn’t mean this dream is beyond reach. Safety comes first – always – but there are many ways to make owning an airplane affordable. We’ll first ensure that you choose the right aircraft for your needs and budget, and we will work with you to achieve all leveraging potential for your aircraft.
The Business of Aircraft Leveraging
Depending on your business and how you'll use the airplane, there exists substantial cost savings potential in airplane ownership. Whether you bill directly to offset the cost or take advantage of business-use deductions, we will help you find every penny of cost savings. V1 Management can handle the billing to outside parties and, as part of our already detailed monthly report, will show you exactly what was spent and billed every month. You’ll always know where you stand.
Managing Strategic Partnerships
If you have identified a group that you trust, we can help set up a “dry lease” for your airplane, which means they pay fuel and flight crew costs separately. This lease is a great way to leverage the aircraft without it ever leaving your control. Still, like everything in aviation, this process should be carefully managed by professionals with proven industry experience. Are you interested in shared ownership but need help identifying a partner? We’ll employ our network of aviation professionals to identify leads and make the right connections for you.
