Pre-Buy Services

Viation through its associates, can offer an extensive range of Pre-Buy and Airworthiness Status Inspections.  The experience of our team is to your advantage, as they can often save you a large proportion of your costs by highlighting contract negotiating points from the inspection.

We can assist with an initial review of the aircraft and documentation (allow 2-4 days) by our team in any part of the world.  Further, you may wish us to send a team to oversee the work at an Approved Service Centre.  We would suggest a full pre-buy to include a deep airframe inspection, Borescope of the engines and APU, along with systems and configuration check of the interior.  At this inspection we would compile a final pre-buy report to satisfy you as the purchaser and any finance house as well as give you further points for potential contract negotiations.

Should a full pre-buy be required, we highly recommend that this should be carried out at an Independent Approved Service Centre for that model of aircraft where at least a minimum of an Annual Inspection should be completed.

Items covered in a full pre buy inspection by our team are as follows –

  • Carry out complete visual inspection
