Used Turboprop Airplanes Experience Substantial Inventory Increases in November

LINCOLN, Neb., Dec. 6, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Inventory levels are still rising across all used aircraft segments in Sandhills Global marketplaces. The most recent Sandhills market reports point to the worldwide used jet market as the leader in inventory increases at 49.64% year over year. Trailing the jet segment, in this order, are the turboprop aircraft, piston helicopter, and piston single aircraft segments.

"The used aircraft market is becoming more price-competitive, with prices starting to stabilize and even decrease," says Controller Department Manager Brant Washburn. "As we continue tracking these markets in the coming months, we'll likely see more sellers lowering prices to attract more buyers."

Sandhills' aviation products include Controller, Controller EMEA, Executive Controller, Charter Hub, Aviation Trader, Aircraft Cost Calculator, and AircraftEvaluator. AircraftEvaluator is Sandhills' proprietary asset valuation tool for all types of aircraft, built using the same technology behind FleetEvaluator.
