The Aircraft Lenders is dedicated to supporting you well beyond the loan process. With a financial partner who understands the complexities of aircraft financing, banking requirements, credit evaluation, and commercial aviation operations, you can feel confident and well-prepared when it’s time to finalize your aircraft purchase.
Embarking on the journey to find your ideal aircraft begins with understanding your aviation financing options. During the pre-approval stage, we review your financial profile, credit, and liquidity to determine how much funding you can access. This helps narrow your aircraft search and positions you for stronger negotiations. Our relationships with aviation-friendly banks and lending institutions allow us to provide competitive pre-approval terms and a clear overview of aircraft loan possibilities.
Once your financial documents are prepared, we initiate the formal approval process. We present your application to the most suitable lenders, emphasizing your strengths to secure favorable loan terms, interest rates, and payment options. Whether you’re financing for personal use, business aircraft operations, corporate flying, or commercial charter missions, we tailor our approach to match your needs. Our expertise in underwriting, aviation credit assessment, and financial package presentation ensures you receive the best offer available.
The closing stage brings together all transaction details. We coordinate with banks, attorneys, escrow agents, sellers, and insurance providers to ensure all requirements are met. We help clear pending issues, confirm that bank conditions are satisfied, advise on lease agreements if applicable, and manage document and fund transfers for a smooth closing. Our goal is efficient transaction management so you can take ownership of your aircraft without delays.
We offer aviation financing solutions for nearly every type of aircraft, including single- and twin-engine piston aircraft, turboprops, jets, helicopters, and specialty aircraft. We also finance experimental aircraft, light sport aircraft, and kit planes. There are no strict age restrictions, and we support Part 91 private use, Part 135 charter operators, flight school leasebacks, and a variety of commercial aviation missions.
We are here for you. We answer the phone when you call. We respond to emails promptly. We work tirelessly to understand your financial package and present it to lenders in its best light.
Our high number of repeat customers is a testament to our capabilities. We deliver client-focused service from your first loan quote to your final payment.
We provide a soft quote up front so you fully understand available aircraft loan options, rates, and any potential fees. Fees may be as low as $289 and can often be financed into the loan.
Our approach is centered on transparency and straightforward information.
Our team brings more than 20 years of experience in airplane financing, aircraft loan underwriting, aviation banking, and funding management.
We act as your advocate to navigate the financing process, secure the best loan terms available, and manage the transaction through closing.
