Acquisition Progress Tracker

CREATING A CLIENT PROFILE

To initiate the jet acquisition process, the initial step involves developing a client profile. This approach aids our team in gaining a comprehensive understanding of the client’s lifestyle, necessities, and prerequisites, while simultaneously allowing us to filter through the extensive range of aircraft models

After the market analysis, we validate the results and, based on what’s available on the market, recommend 1-3 aircraft options.

Preliminary questions include:

• What airports or destinations are most often used?
• How many hours per month/year are you flying?
• How many passengers will typically be flying?
• Do you have any make or model preferences for the aircraft?
• What are your cabin requirements?
• Is model year important in your decision process?
• What’s your budget?

ACQUISITION STRATEGY OVERVIEW

The next step in the acquisition process is to create an initial strategy, based on the client’s profile, that is consistent of:

• Visual presentation of 1-3 models of aircraft and their specifications,
• White market analysis,
• Pricing,
• Operating costs.

After the strategy is made, we review it with the client to see if it is aligned with their flight plan requirements ( including size, range, seating, and speed), and we can proceed with the next steps of the acquisition process.

MARKET ANALYSIS DEEP DIVE

The Outlier team conducts thorough due diligence, proactively researching both on and off-market opportunities for each desired model, and liaising with operators to source viable options. This includes verifying pricing, aircraft specifications, and examining maintenance records. Furthermore, we advertise in the industry through digital and print media to maximize the benefits of your private jet investment.

Subsequent to the market analysis, we validate the findings and, based on the availability in the market, present recommendations of one to three aircraft options.

CREATION OF A “DEAL TEAM”

Outlier offers top-notch legal and tax professionals to facilitate your purchase. We will establish a legal entity and commence tax planning, while simultaneously guiding you in selecting the ideal management company for your aircraft. In addition, our team provides owner services, including ground transportation, catering, and handling all flight requests, ensuring a seamless experience.

LOI NEGOTIATION

Our legal counsel will draft a letter of intent (LOI) and negotiate with the seller on your behalf. The LOI will include technical pre-buy terms, technical acceptance terms, delivery terms, and sale prices.

PRE-BUY AND TECH OVERSIGHT

Prior to the completion of the purchase, a comprehensive examination of the chosen aircraft is carried out. Upon securing a signed Letter of Intent (LOI), our team will initiate the on-site inspections, flight log reviews, and technical pre-buy process at a certified third-party Maintenance Repair and Overhaul (MRO) facility.

We will collaborate with you to determine the most appropriate location for testing and inspecting your aircraft. During this meticulous process, we meticulously scrutinize every aspect of your new aircraft to ensure that it is in pristine condition and aligns with your specific needs and prerequisites.

PURCHASE AGREEMENT AND DEAL NEGOTIATION

The team will finalize all purchase agreement terms, and further negotiate the deal based on Pre-buy findings.

ACCEPTANCE AND CLOSING

After the purchase agreement is accepted, our team will close the purchase.

MANAGEMENT SELECTION

Acquiring a private aircraft is a substantial investment that demands dedicated time and meticulous attention. This is why selecting the appropriate management company is crucial. Although various aircraft management companies provide comparable services, it is essential to conduct research to determine which company can cater to your specific needs. At this juncture, our team can provide assistance, as Outlier boasts a vast charter and jet industry presence. Having collaborated with numerous management companies over the years, we are adept at distinguishing between superior and inferior ones.

Furthermore, even after the purchase, our team continues to support clients in selecting the most suitable management company for their aircraft, offering mentoring and training to ensure the provision of unparalleled service to both you and your jet. From flight planning to staff recruitment and jet maintenance, you can rest assured that the companies we collaborate with are leaders in the aircraft management industry.

MARKET ANALYSIS DEEP DIVE

Purchasing a private jet is a momentous investment, and availing oneself of expert guidance throughout the acquisition process is critical to ensuring owner satisfaction.

However, Outlier’s team is available 24/7 even after the purchase, providing ongoing support to every owner, enabling them to derive maximum enjoyment from their aircraft. Our company’s ultimate objective is to guarantee that each client has an unparalleled owner experience, and this commitment remains unwavering long after the jet is acquired.

The Outlier jet program enjoys worldwide renown and boasts a vast international clientele, setting us apart from typical sales brokers. Our extensive client base is available to the jet owner, enabling them to charter the aircraft when it is not in use, significantly reducing maintenance costs and enabling the owner to fly at a considerably lower rate. Our team collaborates seamlessly with the selected management company, ensuring the delivery of unparalleled service at a competitive cost.

Collaborating with Outlier is a formidable long-term investment. Our team is committed to each client, both past and present, providing round-the-clock support even after the purchase.
