Clients have the confidence that the Appraiser assigned to their project will deliver accurate information and professional service.

Our Mission

Impeccable standards & requirements

CAAA appraisers are required to be active in aircraft sales in order to have a real understanding of factors that affect market value-such as popularity of the various aircraft models, typical time on the market for a particular make and model having certain specifications, and other undesirable or desirable factors that aircraft buyers consider that are not covered in VREF, aircraft bluebook, and professional appraiser’s software.

Only a Certified Appraiser who is actively engaged in aircraft sales will understand and consider all factors that affect “Fair Market Value”. To this date, there has never been a dispute of the Fair Market Value calculated by a CAAA Appraiser by any Certified Appraiser from any other Appraisal Organization. Our Certified Aircraft Appraisers always deliver precise aircraft values.
