Eagle Aviation Consulting recognises that financing and risk management are critical components in fleet planning when it comes to starting a new airline or renewing a fleet at an existing carrier. We have a highly-capable team with the full range of fleet planning skills and expertise necessary to assist clients to identify fleet solutions which best fit their business proposition and market demand characteristics whilst considering their financial circumstances and risk profile. EAC will also assist clients in sourcing aircraft and lead contract negotiations on behalf of the client.
The EAC team are able to assist client airlines to fully evaluate the trade-offs between the selection of new versus old aircraft. We provide full assessments that carefully consider both the financial and environmental impacts and risks associated with each option.
EAC fleet planning services:
• Fleet strategy development, fleet risk assessments
• Aircraft commercial and performance evaluations
• Aircraft sourcing and acquisition
• Project management, documentation preparation for aircraft acquisition, commercial contract negotiation
• Aircraft introduction and through-life asset management
Examples of EAC experience:
• Assessed the profitability of a national carrier’s domestic operation that resulted in the replacement of classic B737 fleet by a new generation of single aisle aircraft.
• Evaluated aircraft performance, variable operating cost and cost of ownership in order to select the most cost effective aircraft/engine combination to meet the network and customer service delivery requirements of a client airline.
• Reviewed a turbo prop operator’s network and financial performance resulting in the disposal of out-dated and high-maintenance aircraft, which were able to be replaced with a modern, cost-effective fleet.
• Negotiated, on behalf of a client airline, for both wet and dry lease aircraft agreements with operators and leasing companies, along with engine “Power By The Hour” agreements.
