(the second half of 2018)

A few Surprises

 

The second half of 2018 in pictures.

The market trend was mixed (as indicated by the trend lines) along the major metrics.

Aircraft For Sale is increasing at a pace faster than aircraft are selling.

 

Aircraft Sold – Last 6 months of 2018

November and December were a surprise.

Inventory has been decreasing quarterly the past 10 quarters – this is the first uptick.

Will watch this trend closely.

 

Number of Months Supply:

Average = 13 months.

We will watch this trend closely with the increase in the number of aircraft added to the market not being matched by increased sales activities.
