Aircraft acquisitions involve substantial financial exposure, operational risk, and complex decision-making.
AEROMAX provides independent aircraft acquisition consulting for buyers seeking professional guidance before committing to a multi-million-dollar turbine aircraft transaction.
From preliminary aircraft review through pre-purchase inspection, escrow, closing, and delivery, AEROMAX helps the buyer ask the right questions, preserve important decision points, and identify risks before they become costly obligations.
Our objective is clear:
Identify Risk. Protect the Buyer. Provide Independent Guidance.
We represent the interests of the buyer—not the seller, broker, or dealer
Most participants in an aircraft transaction are paid when the transaction closes. That does not make them unprofessional, but it does mean their financial interests may differ from the buyer’s.
AEROMAX is retained by the buyer to provide an independent perspective on aircraft suitability, market position, documentation, transaction structure, inspection strategy, and identified risk.
With more than 32 years of experience and over 1,800 on-site aircraft appraisals worldwide, Harry Ingram has advised buyers, lenders, attorneys, corporations, government agencies, and other stakeholders on aircraft value and transaction risk.
Focused guidance for experienced buyers who need an independent professional perspective.
Hands-on support and structured guidance throughout major stages of the acquisition.
Comprehensive buyer representation from acquisition strategy through delivery.
Designed for experienced buyers who need independent transaction guidance and professional insight before moving forward.
Buyers who are managing the transaction themselves but want an experienced, independent advisor available at important decision points.
Designed for buyers seeking hands-on support and a structured acquisition process without delegating complete transaction management.
Buyers who want professional support through the major stages of the transaction while remaining directly involved in decisions and communications.
Typical total engagement: approximately $50,000 plus travel.
Designed for buyers seeking comprehensive professional representation from acquisition strategy and aircraft search through inspection, closing, and delivery
Level 3 engagement structure typically includes the initial retainer at commencement and a success fee if the transaction closes. Final terms are stated in the written consulting agreement.
A properly structured acquisition should preserve the buyer’s ability to investigate, negotiate, and walk away before funds become nonrefundable.
The purchase agreement is the roadmap for the transaction. Buyer protections should be negotiated before deposits become nonrefundable.
Independent Buyer Representation Since 1994
AEROMAX has no aircraft inventory and no financial interest in promoting a particular aircraft.
Our role is to help the buyer make an informed decision—even when the right decision is to walk away.
We don’t buy aircraft. We don’t sell aircraft. We protect the buyer.
Aircraft Acquisition Consulting is an advisory and buyer-representation service performed under a written agreement defining the scope of work. It is not legal advice, tax advice, title insurance, an airworthiness determination, or a substitute for services provided by qualified aviation attorneys, escrow and title professionals, tax advisors, insurance professionals, or maintenance facilities.
AEROMAX may identify contract, title, tax, maintenance, inspection, or regulatory matters requiring review by the appropriate licensed or qualified professional. The buyer retains final authority over aircraft selection, negotiation positions, acceptance, rejection, and closing.
Level 2 Guided Acquisition Support — Starting at $9,500
Level 3 Full Buyer Representation — $25,000 Initial Retainer + Success Fee at Closing
Typical Level 3 total engagement: approximately $50,000 plus travel.
Final pricing and scope are established in a written consulting agreement based on aircraft type, acquisition complexity, location, travel, anticipated duration, and requested services.
Before you buy, sell, finance, insure, or evaluate an aircraft, make sure its records are organized, searchable, and ready for meaningful review.
Preserve the records. Improve transparency. Identify the questions before they become expensive problems
