Aircraft asset management

V1 Aviation’s asset management expertise involves tracking aircraft maintenance exposure over the life of the asset to mitigate financial risk for the lessor, maximize asset values, and safeguard onward lease and trading potential. 

V1 Aviation can assist lessors in this regard through the following key areas:

1.        Maintenance reserves fund reviews

  • Audit of MR funds versus historical utilization to ensure accurate MR fund coverage

  • Periodic MR fund true-ups (actual utilization and FH:FC ratio analysis)

2.        End-of-lease financial adjustment / return financial compensation analysis

  • In-depth expert review of financial exposure on all airframe, landing gear, engine, LLP and APU components

  • ‘Upsy-downsy’ / ‘mirror-in mirror-out’ reconciliation

  • Adherence to all lease contract clauses governing return financial compensation

3.        Maintenance reserves forecasting

  • Forecasting of MR cashflows to support trading activities

  • Maintenance Right Asset (MRA) analysis to support accounting activities

  • Top-up / lease incentive analysis to support onward leasing and accounting activities
