Greenwich AeroGroup Prepurchase Evaluation and Support Programs

One of the most important steps of buying an aircraft is the prepurchase evaluation. Whether

you choose to have your evaluation conducted at Atlantic Aero, Summit Aviation or Western

Aircraft, the process will consist of three major elements: The aircraft physical inspection,

the aircraft maintenance records audit and reporting the results of these two items.

Greenwich AeroGroup’s maintenance facilities have the certificated authority as granted

by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) to perform inspections, maintenance and

modifications on several different aircraft makes and models. An important addition to the

certification is the expertise of the technicians conducting the evaluation. At Atlantic Aero,

Summit Aviation and Western Aircraft technicians continually gain experience and practice

their expertise through regular formal training and years of working on the aircraft in similar

situations.

We service:

Agusta | Avanti | Beechcraft | Bell | Cessna | Challenger | Citation | Eclipse | Eurocopter

Falcon | Hawker | Learjet | MD | Pilatus | Piper | Sikorsky | Socata

Extensive preparation and planning for the evaluation is important to ensure that we can

meet your deadlines and expectations. Our goal is to:

• Remain flexible on the input timing because we understand the fluidity of the aircraft

acquisition business

• Understand your requirements prior to aircraft arrival so we can provide an accurate

quote

• Treat all parties involved uniformly and with consistent and open communication

• Provide potential options based on our experience on the make and model being

considered to maximize the benefits of the evaluation investment

• Develop a schedule to meet aircraft broker deadlines and operator or prospective owner

needs

• Keep you apprised of where we are in regards to the work package

• Utilize tools customized for your project, such as Gantt charts and other programs

▪ These tools allow you to easily see what is planned and where we are in comparison

to the scheduled chain of events

Prior to the Aircraft Prepurchase Evaluation

Once we have an agreement on the statement of work and terms of the evaluation we will

move into the key steps necessary to accomplish the workscope. Those steps include:

• A documented inventory of the items received

• A previously agreed to physical inspection of the selected areas will be performed on

the prospective aircraft

• A single point of contact throughout the planning, execution and delivery stage of the

project will be available to you at all times after the project has been scheduled

• An agreed upon communication process for the reporting of progress and findings

• A complete and thorough examination of the maintenance records will be performed

and reported

Prepurchase Evaluation

Once we have completed the prepurchase evaluation and the aircraft maintenance records

audit, we will provide you with a list of airworthiness concerns as well as:

• If there are findings as a result of the prepurchase physical examination or maintenance

records audit, a plan of action will be presented to correct these findings as applicable

as well as the cost of those corrective actions

• Information and options necessary, based on manufacturers or other credible data, for

you to make informed decisions related to the findings

▪ Our experienced staff uses internal and external resources such as our ODA and the

manufacturer to provide quick and accurate recommendations and alternatives to

situations that arise during the evaluation

• A user-friendly booklet that combines the results of the evaluation

• Our staff will be available to address any questions or options being considered as part

of the purchase of the aircraft

Upon Completion of the Prepurchase Evaluation

After the reports have been presented and reviewed by the buyer and seller, an approved

plan of action will be established to return the aircraft to service. If the buyer or seller

chooses to have a Greenwich AeroGroup company conduct the needed repairs and

modifications, a list of such items will be provided identifying associated responsibilities for

the buyer, seller and Greenwich AeroGroup. This plan ensures that all parties involved are

agreeable to the formulated solution. We will seek approval from the current owner of the

aircraft before working any item on the aircraft.
