VALUATION APPRAISALS
A “FULL” appraisal is one that includes an inspection of the aircraft and a review of its historical maintenance records. This appraisal is aimed solely at determining the overall condition of the aircraft and its records to support the value opinions of the appraiser. An appraisal is not a pre-purchase inspection and would not, for example, include an opening of inspection panels on the aircraft or a detailed review of all historical maintenance record archives.
VALUATION APPRAISALS
A desktop appraisal assignment is one where there is no inspection of the aircraft nor review of any of its associated historical records. This type of appraisal relies on information provided by the client or other outside sources and includes a wider range of assumptions. This type of appraisal is associated with determining an opinion of Retrospective, Current or Prospective Fair Market Value and can include Hypothetical assumptions where appropriate.
VALUATION APPRAISALS
A business aircraft can experience damage for many different reasons ranging from a simple dent resulting from hangar rash to a major mishap requiring extensive restoration. Some repairs require only replacement of specific components while others necessitate extensive labor and possible engineering expertise to make the aircraft airworthy again. Major repairs are common, frequently negatively impacting the value of an asset, both present day and in the future.
