Lease & Redelivery
Advisory
Independent technical representation for lessors and lessees navigating aircraft lease transitions — where thorough records review and rigorous inspection can determine outcomes worth millions.
High-Stakes Technical Representation
Lease Redeliveries Reward Prepared Advisors
An aircraft lease return is a negotiation, not just a technical event. The side with deeper records knowledge, more thorough inspection coverage, and cleaner cost-of-correction estimates consistently achieves better outcomes. Aviation Asset Advisors provides that depth to both lessors managing returns and lessees preparing for redelivery conditions.
Our principals have worked both sides of lease transitions over decades — reviewing records for airlines, representing lessors at engine inspections, and advising on maintenance reserve disputes at arbitration. That breadth of experience informs every redelivery mandate we accept.
Lease advisory also draws on our asset management experience for continuous monitoring and our FAA DAR-T capability for aircraft in transition between registries.
