Beech, Cessna, Gulfstream, Piper, helicopter, jet, multi, piston, single, turboprop, used aircraft, values in Charts Monday, November 30, 2009 at 3:30PM by Carl Janssens, ASA | Aircraft Bluebook — Price Digest
Entering its home stretch, 2009 certainly has been a forgettable year for general aviation. The losses in value for most owners of corporate aircraft have been significant and, at times, have even been heartbreaking.
However, something is happening out there. While economists predict an economic recovery will be achingly slow, some aircraft values are moving up. The change is barely perceptible and does not apply to every market segment. But inventories are finally contracting instead of expanding, and dealers are again becoming cautiously optimistic.
At the Dubai Airshow, Aircraft Bluebook–Price Digest has witnessed upbeat attitudes.
Aircraft Bluebook was represented in Dubai with its sister publications AC-U-KWIK and The Air Charter Guide. These publications are intricately involved in all aspects of corporate aviation, including aircraft values, FBOs, ground transportation, lodging or a multitude of other support services. At the Dubai Airshow, business was robust. The publications experienced record advertising and book sales.
This trade show in Dubai reflects the health of the international corporate aviation segment. We can hope that the skies over North America will soon host greater numbers of corporate jets giving lift to the companies that use corporate aviation to propel themselves out of these dark times.
While the economy thumbs for a lift, corporate aviation is showing signs of lifting the economy. Remember the National Business Aviation Association and General Aviation Manufacturers Association’s campaign slogan: “No Plane, No Gain.”

For large-cabin/long-range aircraft, inventories have firmed with sale prices holding at what should be considered bottom market pricing. The bottom market seekers still waiting for a better opportunity may be surprised when the uptick in values reemerges.
The Lear 31 and Cessna 525 had values in the plus column. The Gulfstream G-IV and Bombardier Challenger 601 experienced minor decreases.
