Strategic Implications

The tightening supply of used aircraft may indicate a seller's market, particularly for turboprops, which could lead to increased prices and reduced availability. The used jet market, however, suggests a more selective market, where sellers may not experience broad-based pricing power across every segment.

Turboprop prices have risen, with asking prices increasing 3.12% from May and 3.32% from June 2025. The used jet market, however, has seen a decline in asking prices, despite a shrinking inventory.
