Aircraft Pre Purchase & Redelivery Inspection Audit
When an operator accepts the lease of a commercial or business class aircraft, any errors, mistakes or omissions that are not discovered and
resolved before the closing date become the lessees responsibility.
Aside from the prevention of significant maintenance cost shortly after lease commencement, it is the Lessees responsibility to add the aircraft to their operators certificate
and successfully complete the import and re registration of the aircraft.
In our experience in performing technical inspection services returning off lease aircraft on behalf of major lessors we regularly see Lessors hold Lessees acountable
for aircraft records that the Lessor never provided at the beginning of the lease! It is the Lessees responsibility to verify all items at acceptance
as Lessors commonly will require financial adjustments at return for deficiencies even when these items were not initially supplied.
Our pre-purchase and redelivery inspections are the most affordable & comprehensive in the industry.
Transport & business class aircraft technical inspections may include full back to birth audits.
Inspections exceed the requirements common in the FAA Conformity Inspection and may include damage mapping, full AD & SB audits, independent compilation of time & life limited data and much more. Video, photographs and photocopies of all certificates and important log entries are also included.
We physically inspect the aircraft & records and develop a comprehensive listing of outstanding Airworthiness Directives, Hard Life Limited components, maintenance intervals and other time life critical items on the airframe and engines. Our findings will also include our observations and listings of outstanding maintenance items.
