The in-depth Pre-Purchase Inspection (PPI) at an authorized service center is the only way to minimize potential risks. AEROENGINE offers all levels of Pre-Purchase Inspections and can provide all necessary information on the technical condition and history of a chosen aircraft. Knowledge gained through us enables you to make an informed decision regarding the true value and technical status of a chosen aircraft.

The PPI process:

1. As an aircraft prospective buyer you order the PPI (including inspection scope) at a maintenance center of your choice.
2. According to the PPI scope and the size and age of the aircraft, the ASC will need up to 14 days to complete the inspection and present a list of findings. The above should include airworthiness, non-airworthiness and cosmetic findings, presented to both the prospective buyer and the actual aircraft owner (seller).
3. Seller and buyer should agree who will take responsibility for rectifying findings. All items related to the aircraft airworthiness will normally be paid for by the seller. Rectification of all other findings can be negotiated by the parties.

4. Best case scenario: After a thorough PPI, all findings are rectified and you, the prospective buyer, will enjoy your new aircraft knowing it is safe, absolutely airworthy, and that you will not be burdened with unexpected expenses in the near future.
5. Worst case scenario: The results of the PPI are not satisfactory, and your decision, based on the findings, is not to purchase the aircraft. On the other hand, the inspection has saved you significant future expenses.
