PUBLISHER’S NOTE<br />
For this quarter’s edition of <strong>Asian</strong> <strong>Sky</strong> <strong>Quarterly</strong>, there seems to be two<br />
stories unfolding. From our “Market Dynamics” section, we are seeing<br />
the market cheer as we move further and further into a seller’s territory<br />
with the percent of the fleet for sale decreasing and prices rising. But<br />
our “Mood & Intentions” survey highlights optimism flattening out and<br />
purchase intention subsequently diminishing.<br />
The latter first. Optimism has flatten out because frankly it couldn’t climb<br />
much higher. It has been on a constant rise since 2Q/3Q 2016 and now<br />
sits at around 90% for most areas in the Asia Pacific region. Optimism<br />
was also overall pulled down by a poor mood in the quarter from<br />
Australia which, as one can see from our “2017Q4 Economics” section,<br />
can be attributed to falling GDP. As to purchase intention, the changes<br />
have only been in the range of 1 – 3% (statistically insignificant?) which<br />
one could therefore simply cast off as being merely a “start of a new<br />
year” pause or fluctuation.<br />
lines, and sellers are hanging on to their aircraft longer waiting for that<br />
better deal i.e. days on market are rising.<br />
Another “right moment’ is the arrival of the Falcon 6X which is on<br />
the covers of this edition of <strong>Asian</strong> <strong>Sky</strong> <strong>Quarterly</strong> and featured as the<br />
“Upcoming Aircraft”. Falcon’s 2000 series of aircraft also gets our<br />
scrutiny in the “Pre-Owned Market Spotlight”. The “Country Profile” this<br />
time is of the Indochina region including Cambodia, Laos, Myanmar &<br />
Vietnam. And, as always, we are featuring a number of interviews, this<br />
time of Hironori Abe from Setouchi Holdings Inc, Violet Kwek from Global<br />
Jet Capital and ASG’s own Alan Hung.<br />
The reason I take such a flippant view of the “Mood & Intentions”<br />
this time is because of the former. As you can see from our “Market<br />
Dynamics” section everything seems to be going right at the moment.<br />
The over supply that existed in the market is getting burned down further<br />
now – good aircraft at good prices are selling – and with less supply,<br />
asking prices are firming up and even increasing. Consequently, we are<br />
moving deeper into seller’s territory, as seen from our “Market Trend”<br />
Sincerely,<br />

FIND OUT WHY SMART BUSINESSES ARE<br />
TURNING TO OPERATING LEASES.<br />
找 出 为 什 么 精 明 的 商 家 正 在 转 向 经 营 租 赁 。<br />
An operating lease is a popular financing tool that can provide you with the benefits of a private aircraft<br />
without the traditional risks of aircraft ownership. There are several different options, but in each case you do not take<br />
ownership of the aircraft, but have the full use of it as if you did. Plus instead of a large down payment, you put down a more<br />
modest security deposit and return the aircraft at the end of the lease term to Global Jet Capital.<br />
You can choose to:<br />
· Enter into a sale and leaseback arrangement for your current aircraft<br />
· Identify a new or pre-owned aircraft for us to purchase<br />
· Assign your purchase contracts to us for your new, on-order aircraft<br />

2017Q4 ECONOMICS<br />
Australia<br />
Australia’s GDP growth slipped to 2.4 percent in Q4, falling from<br />
2.8 percent the previous quarter. The household sector, including<br />
consumption and income, were major drivers of the country’s GDP, while<br />
net exports — particularly in rural goods and tourism — contributed to<br />
the drag.<br />
Malaysia<br />
The Southeast <strong>Asian</strong> nation of Malaysia expanded at 5.9 percent<br />
in Q4, compared to 6.2 percent the previous quarter. Services,<br />
manufacturing and the agriculture sectors have been the greatest<br />
contributors on the production side, with all sectors posting growth<br />
except mining and quarrying.<br />
Mainland China<br />
China’s economy grew 6.9 percent in 2017, ending on a positive note.<br />
2017 topped the previous year when growth was 6.7 percent — the<br />
lowest in 26 years. An increase in consumer spending and a rebound<br />
in the property market added to the final quarter’s growth. Signals from<br />
2017 show the country’s growth is moving away from manufacturing<br />
and investment-led growth.<br />
Japan<br />
Japan’s economy ended 2017 on a weaker note because of negative<br />
contribution from net exports, a consequence of a surge in imports<br />
in Q4. Still, the country continued its streak of expansion for now the<br />
eighth consecutive quarter. Overall growth in the October-December<br />
quarter grew at 1.2 percent, revised up from a preliminary reading of<br />
1.0 percent growth.<br />
Hong Kong<br />
Growth in the final quarter of the year expanded 3.4 percent year-onyear<br />
(y/y), for a full-year growth of 3.8 percent up from 2.1 percent in<br />
2016. Growth in private consumption continued at a steady pace of<br />
6.3% on the back of a tight labor market and higher household incomes.<br />
Moving forward, Hong Kong’s growth will likely get a boost from this<br />
year’s expansionary state budget announced in February.<br />
Taiwan<br />
Strong domestic demand and solid export growth led Taiwan’s economy<br />
to expand at the fastest pace in nearly three years in the fourth quarter<br />
of 2017. GDP rose 3.3% annually in Q4, just above Q3’s 3.2% increase,<br />
attributed greatly to the island’s export-driven manufacturing.<br />
South Korea<br />
South Korea’s economy slowed in the fourth quarter of 2017, after<br />
reaching a nearly four-year high in Q3. Preliminary data showed a<br />
3.0 percent deceleration (y/y) in Q4, down from 3.8 percent in Q3.<br />
Overall, the economy expanded 3.1 percent in 2017, higher than 2.8<br />
percent in 2016. Fewer exports and weaker fixed investment slowed<br />
growth, while private and government consumption were positive.<br />
Thailand<br />
Thailand’s economy grew slower than expected in Q4, despite being<br />
its 15th consecutive quarter of growth. The economy expanded by<br />
4.0 percent (y/y) in the last quarter of 2017, driven by tourism and<br />
manufacturing.<br />
India<br />
India’s economy expanded 7.2 percent (y/y) in the last three months of<br />
2017. This was versus a revised growth of 6.5 percent in the previous<br />
quarter and the strongest growth rate since 2016 Q3, which is attributed<br />
to a rise in investments and an increase in public spending.<br />
Philippines<br />
The Philippine economy posted a 6.6 percent GDP growth in Q4,<br />
driving the economy to grow by 6.7 percent for the entire year of 2017.<br />
Manufacturing, trade, real estate, renting and business activities were<br />
the main drivers of growth in the fourth quarter. With the country’s<br />
projected population reaching 105.3 million in the fourth quarter of<br />
2017, per capita GDP and per capita GNI grew by 5.1 percent and 4.7<br />
percent, respectively.<br />
Indonesia<br />
Expanding 5.07 percent (y/y), Indonesia’s economy saw positive signs<br />
in 2017. This growth is the nation’s fastest full-year GDP growth figure<br />
since 2013. The 5.19 percent (y/y) growth for Q4 is also the best Q4<br />
GDP growth since 2013. Household consumption, which generally<br />
accounts for over half of the country’s economic growth, remained low<br />
with a 5 percent mark.<br />
Singapore<br />
Singapore’s economy expanded 3.6 percent in 2017, up from 2.4<br />
percent in 2016. The unemployment rate in the city-state declined,<br />
positively influencing household spending. The Q4 figure was below<br />
the previous quarter’s 5.5 percent growth.<br />

Q1<br />
Signs of pessimistic feelings for the economy have emerged for the first<br />
time since 2016 Q3. This quarter, 52% of respondents believed that the<br />
economy has passed its low point and will improve, which is 4% less<br />
than the previous quarter. The number of respondents who believe the<br />
current economy is at its low point and will get better is 37%, 3% higher<br />
than the previous quarter. Alternatively, 11% of respondents believed<br />
that the economy has not reached its low point and will continue to get<br />
worse, a 1% increase from 2017Q4.<br />
In general, respondents who believe that the current economic situation<br />
has passed its low point or is at its low point can be described as<br />
optimistic. This quarter, 89% of respondents are optimistic that our<br />
economy will improve in the future – a 1% decrease from 2017 Q4 and<br />
the first decline since 2016 Q3.<br />
Central Asia (made up of mainly respondents from India & Pakistan)<br />
showed the highest optimistic level of 94%, while the average for this<br />
quarter was 89%. However, compared to last quarter, this represented<br />
a 6% decline. Greater China was lower than average again this quarter<br />
but still attained a new high of 88%. The optimistic level for Southeast<br />
and Northeast Asia increased by 1% to 92% compared to last quarter.<br />
Oceania, however, endured a 14% decline from the previous quarter,<br />
making it the least optimistic region in The Asia Pacific.<br />

utilization had decreased, 63% of respondents<br />
said their aircraft utilization had increased,<br />
which is a 2% increase compared to last quarter<br />
and a 29% increase since 2015 Q4.<br />
* An Optimistic-Pessimistic Signal Line has<br />
been added to forecast aircraft usage trends<br />
for the Greater China, Oceania and South<br />
and East Asia regions. An optimistic mood is<br />
derived from more people indicating a ‘higher’<br />
aircraft utilization than 12 months ago, and a<br />
pessimistic mood is derived from more people<br />
indicating ‘lower’ aircraft utilization than 12<br />
months ago.<br />
Greater China<br />
60% (same at 2017 Q4) of respondents<br />
indicated their aircraft utilization in 2018 Q1<br />
increased, with only 18% (21% at 2017 Q4) of<br />
the respondents stating their aircraft utilization<br />
was lower compared to 12 months ago. The<br />
total expected aircraft utilization continued to<br />
increase in 2018 Q1, thus the total utilization<br />
trend continue its upward slope into the<br />
optimistic zone.<br />
Oceania<br />
52% of respondents have indicated their aircraft<br />
utilization increased, 12% higher than 2017<br />
Q4. 30% of respondents believe their aircraft<br />
utilization decreased, 9% higher than 2017 Q4.<br />
Although the aircraft utilization in this region<br />
has continued to increase in 2018 Q1, the trend<br />
for improved aircraft utilization continues to<br />

EXPANDING ASG<br />
INTERVIEW WITH ALAN HUNG,<br />
ASIAN SKY GROUP DIRECTOR, BUSINESS DEVELOPM<strong>EN</strong>T<br />
Interview by Litalia Yoakum<br />
In 2018, <strong>Asian</strong> <strong>Sky</strong> Group expanded its team with the addition of Alan Hung, taking on the role<br />
of Director, Business Development. With over 10 years of experience in the industry, Alan will<br />
leverage his extensive experience, wide network and ambitious attitude in supporting ASG’s work<br />
in aircraft sales and acquisitions and consulting.<br />
Tell me about your aviation experience prior<br />
to joining <strong>Asian</strong> <strong>Sky</strong> Group (ASG)?<br />
My aviation journey began in 2001, when I went to Australia to study<br />
Aviation Management at the University of New South Wales Sydney.<br />
At that time, there was no formal Aviation Management course in<br />
Hong Kong. I knew there would be a lot of future opportunities within<br />
the aviation industry, particularly in China and throughout the Asia-<br />
Pacific region. However, in 2004, after I obtained my Bachelor of<br />
Aviation, there was a SARS epidemic in Hong Kong and a downturn<br />
in the global aviation industry. Considering both, it was a tough time<br />
to look for opportunities.<br />
In 2005, I started my first aviation job in Hong Kong, as an Aircraft<br />
Dispatch and Station Control Officer where I learned flight planning<br />
and other technical skills in commercial aviation. After about a year,<br />
the business aviation industry in Hong Kong began to develop. An<br />
opportunity came along to move into the Operations Department as a<br />
Flight Dispatcher. During my five years in Flight Operations, I worked<br />
on and dispatched aircraft for most of the major OEMs, including<br />
Boeing Business Jets, Gulfstream and Bombardier.<br />
I then decided to further develop my career and pursue a sales role,<br />
taking on the role of Sales and Key Account Manager and, later, moved<br />
to Aircraft Management Sales Manager. In 2015, I saw more demand<br />
for maintenance services. As our customer’s aircraft started to go out<br />
of warranty, I began to promote an independent maintenance program<br />
and to help customers better understand resale value.<br />
I now see great opportunities in helping customers buy and sell<br />
their aircraft. In early 2018, I joined ASG and now have the chance to<br />
assist clients with their business aviation needs, including aircraft<br />
sales and acquisitions.<br />
How has the industry evolved since you<br />
started out?<br />
The business jet fleet in Hong Kong has grown to over 130, while<br />
Mainland China’s has grown to approximately 345 business jets. With<br />
the growth of the fleet and more business jet movements in the region,<br />
several different industry segments have changed.<br />
10 years ago, there was no landing slot and parking limitation in<br />
the Hong Kong International Airport. Now, with the increase in<br />
movements, operators have difficulties obtaining slots and are faced<br />
with restrictions on landing and parking. This is due to the lack of<br />
slots, amid rising passenger traffic, but also the priority of commercial<br />
aviation over business aviation. On the maintenance side, things<br />
are much better than where they were 10 years ago. OEMs and<br />
maintenance providers are now looking at the Asia-Pacific region as a<br />
place to set-up their facilities. Bombardier opened their Tianjin facility<br />
in early 2017 and several other providers have targeted the region as<br />
the place to be.<br />
The industry has also seen many aircraft management companies<br />
pop up. Clients now have multiple choices, along with competitive<br />
pricing. What was considered an added value services before, such<br />
as maintenance services, charter brokerage services and aircraft<br />
brokerage, is now the standard, which reflects the clients changing<br />
and more mature attitude toward the market.<br />
In terms of aircraft sales, the pre-owned market has become more<br />
active. Typically, pre-owned aircraft don’t come with a warranty, which<br />
is now okay for buyers because maintenance providers are moving<br />
into the region making maintaining out of warranty aircraft more<br />
feasible and economical.<br />

INDUSTRY INSIDER<br />
You will be taking on the role of Director,<br />
Business Development. What area are you<br />
covering and what services are you offering<br />
to clients?<br />
As the new Director, Business Development, I will be offering a<br />
wide-range of services: assistance in aircraft transactions, aviation<br />
consulting and media and marketing solutions. I’m covering the Asia-<br />
Pacific region and strongly focusing on the Greater China market.<br />
What are some of the latest business jet<br />
trends you’ve seen Greater China?<br />
In the last 10 years, the market has quickly evolved. We are now<br />
seeing successful sales in the super-midsize and large cabin<br />
categories. When I started out, most customers were buying brand<br />
new aircraft, without financing. Owners are now more open to<br />
considering pre-owned business jets and they’re willing to finance<br />
through various means.<br />
Additionally, the industry — in Mainland China — is now supported by<br />
the Chinese Government’s aim to have over 500 general airports in<br />
the country in the next few years. With this, the demand for business<br />
aviation will be higher and the industry will see even more pre-owned<br />
activity and more financing options.<br />
Today, there is a lot of competition. The market will see the introduction<br />
of Gulfsteam’s G500 and G600 and has just witnessed the unveiling of<br />
the Falcon 6X. Offering long range and large cabin space, these aircraft<br />
will be very welcome in the Greater China region.<br />
How can ASG help potential clients looking to<br />
buy/sell an aircraft in this region?<br />
Collectively, the ASG team has a wide-range of professional experience<br />
in all facets of the industry. Our team is very international and can help<br />
clients in multiple languages, in any location, with any requirement.<br />
We also have great support from our shareholder companies Seacor,<br />
and Avion Pacific along with ASG’s strategic partner Avpro, whose own<br />
network and resources we often utilize.<br />
The market will see the<br />
introduction of Gulfsteam’s<br />
G500 and G600 and has just<br />
witnessed the unveiling of the<br />
Falcon 6X. Offering long ranges<br />
and large cabin space, these<br />
aircraft will be very welcome<br />
into Greater China.<br />
<strong>Asian</strong> <strong>Sky</strong> Media, ASG’s new media division focusing on publications<br />
and marketing services, has been resourceful for ASG’s aircraft<br />
sales and acquisition requirements too. Through its marketing<br />
services. we’re able to reach an extensive and precise database.<br />
ASG’s market intelligence, which is visible through the portfolio of<br />
<strong>Asian</strong> <strong>Sky</strong> Media’s reports, is another key factor in helping clients<br />
achieve their needs. When a request for an aircraft comes in, ASG’s<br />
team of analysts are soon hard at work, helping the client to fully<br />
understand the status of the market and the position of their aircraft<br />
in the market.<br />
What are you hoping to achieve in your new<br />
role with ASG?<br />
With the support of the ASG team, I hope we can bring the company’s<br />
service standards to the next level. ASG is already such a recognized<br />
company in the Asia-Pacific region, I hope to attain even more<br />
recognition and now on a global scale.<br />
On a personal level, I hope to successfully complete my first aircraft<br />
sales transaction in 2018. This is something I feel confident in,<br />
particularly after seeing the resources at hand within ASG. It’d also be<br />
great to assist companies looking to expand their presence into the<br />
region through our portfolio of media and marketing services.<br />

INDOCHINA<br />
(VIETNAM, CAMBODIA, LAOS, MYANMAR)<br />
BUSINESS AVIATION PROFILE<br />
by Litalia Yoakum<br />
The Southeast <strong>Asian</strong> nations of Vietnam, Cambodia, Laos and<br />
Myanmar make up part of what is often referred to as Indochina,<br />
or the Indochina Peninsula. Each of these countries reflect cultural<br />
influences from their bordering neighbours of India and Mainland China,<br />
through language and cuisine, in addition to reflecting more Western<br />
influences stemming from European colonialism. While Mainland China is<br />
most often noted in the Asia-Pacific business aviation industry for its growth<br />
and potential, Indochina should be seen as a market of the future.<br />
14 | ASIAN SKY QUARTERLY — FIRST QUARTER 2018
COUNTRY PROFILE: INDOCHINA<br />
CAMBODIA<br />
Located in the southern portion of the Indochina Peninsula, Cambodia<br />
has experienced rapid economic growth in the last decade, stimulated<br />
by tourism, construction, textiles and agriculture. While the country still<br />
faces several challenges to reach the economic status of its neighbors<br />
(Thailand and Vietnam), Cambodia’s aviation industry is being driven<br />
by rising tourism activities.<br />
Cambodia’s Ministry of Tourism reported in 2016 that the sector<br />
generated US$3.4B of economic activity, supported by over five<br />
million international visitors. Tourism levels are expected to increase<br />
in coming years. The primary entry points into Cambodia are the<br />
country’s main international airports: Phnom Penh International, Siem<br />
Reap International and Sihanoukville International.<br />
Currently these airports are only dedicated to commercial aviation.<br />
Still, Cambodia is base to two business jets, both of which are operated<br />
by Tag Aviation and both of which are Gulfstreams, a G200 and a<br />
G450. Cambodia was home to a G550 in 2016, which later changed<br />
its based to the US.<br />
Like surrounding countries, the civil turbine helicopter fleet is much<br />
larger in Cambodia than its business jet fleet. At yearend 2017, there<br />
were nine helicopters in the country most of which were used in multimission<br />
roles. The single-engine is the most popular model, which is<br />
often utilized for charter and tourism purposes.<br />
LAOS<br />
As the only landlocked country of Southeast Asia, Laos is often<br />
overshadowed by its neighbors but still attracts a considerable number<br />
of tourists every year who are intrigued by its undeveloped landscape.<br />
While Laos is likely the least mature business aviation market in the<br />
Southeast Asia region with no business jets based in the country, there<br />
are still several outside operators that offer chartered flights in and<br />
Helicopter Fleet Age Distribution - Indochina*<br />
out. Facilities used are those shared with and more often utilized for<br />
commercial aviation.<br />
The lack of infrastructure in all sectors, including aviation and<br />
tourism, is at the root of the country’s underdevelopment. The Laos<br />
Government is now encouraging and attempting to attract FDIs, in<br />
hopes of further development.<br />
Similar to the rest of the region, Laos’ civil turbine helicopter fleet is<br />
more active with 10 helicopters. These are made up of mostly singleengine<br />
helicopters, used for charter and search and rescue.<br />
MYANMAR<br />
Formerly known as Burma, Myanmar is a country rich in natural<br />
resources. While it remains one of the poorest countries in Asia,<br />
Myanmar has initiated a series of economic reforms to attract foreign<br />
investment, which has the potential to trigger a demand for business<br />
aviation and supporting infrastructure.<br />
The country’s business jet fleet stands at zero. Myanmar was previously<br />
base to a Bombardier Challenger 800, operated by China-based aircraft<br />
management company Astro Air. The 800 has since relocated to China.<br />
Although there are currently no business jets based in the country,<br />
there has been an increased interest in travel to the country.<br />
Consequently, several companies offer charter services. Supporting<br />
charter in and out of Myanmar is Thailand-based MJets, which has an<br />
FBO located in Yangon — the country’s capital city. MJets Myanmar<br />
Business Aviation Centre (MMBAC) offers ground handling services<br />
and a private jet terminal, complete with onsite customs, immigration<br />
and quarantine services.<br />
Myanmar is much more active in the civil helicopter market. At yearend<br />
2017, Myanmar’s civil turbine helicopter fleet stood at 17, an increase<br />
of 21.4% from 2016. While the majority are used to support offshore oil<br />
and gas operations, a growing number are used in the multi-mission<br />
segment and for charter use.<br />

VIETNAM<br />
Occupying the eastern portion of the Indochina Peninsula, Vietnam is<br />
the largest — in terms of population — of the four countries. With over<br />
96M inhabitants, the country also boasts the strongest economy, with<br />
much of its growth attributed to agriculture and manufacturing, while<br />
foreign direct investments (FDI) are picking up from multinational<br />
companies, as well as small to medium-sized enterprises.<br />

According to the Wealth Report 2017 — released by global property<br />
consultancy Knight Frank LLP — the number of ultra-high net worth<br />
individuals (UHNWIs), defined as those with wealth of at least<br />
US$30M, in Vietnam has increased by 320 percent since 2006; the<br />
fastest growth in the world. This is expected to increase even more<br />
by 2026, when the number of UHNWIs is forecast to be 540; a 170<br />
percent increase from that of today.<br />
The growing number of enterprises in the country, paired with its rising<br />
wealthy class, are now triggering an increase in travel. Statistics from<br />
the Civil Aviation Administration of Vietnam show air passenger traffic<br />
has risen immensely from 2015 to 2016. In 2016, passenger traffic<br />
reached more than 52 million, up 29% from 2015. Forecasts expect<br />
both international and domestic travel to grow.<br />
“While the number of airliner aircraft [and traffic] in a country doesn’t<br />
equate directly to the opportunities for business jet acquisitions<br />
[and activity], it does demonstrate an increased willingness of the<br />
population to travel and an increased level of disposable income<br />
for them to be able to do so,” says DHT Aviation, a Vietnam-based<br />
ground handler.<br />
“There are zero business jets owned or operated in the Vietnam<br />
currently,” explains DHT Aviation. “The country, however, operates<br />
business turboprops, with the current fleet including two Beechcraft<br />
King Airs.<br />

The country’s business aviation industry also faces the challenge of<br />
competing with commercial aviation, when it comes to infrastructure.<br />
DHT Aviation explains that parking slots and ground handling providers<br />
also work with commercial aircraft, with most resources going to<br />
those rather than business and/or general aviation.<br />
Additionally, there are no FBOs in Vietnam so if top government officials,<br />
or others require security and privacy, they need to utilise a VIP lounge<br />
in the terminal which would then be unavailable for other passengers.<br />
Operating a general aviation aircraft in Vietnam is equally as difficult.<br />
DHT Aviation cites licensing fees, ownership registration and<br />
approvals from the Ministry of National Defense, as challenges. As<br />
far as maintenance, operators and owners must seek maintenance<br />
providers in Hong Kong or Singapore for quality maintenance work.<br />
While Vietnam’s business jet fleet sits at zero, it’s civil turbine helicopter<br />
fleet is relatively active. With 31 civil helicopters as of yearend 2017,<br />
most active in Vietnam is for offshore oil and gas operations. The most<br />
popular size category in the country is the heavy-size, often used in<br />
the offshore segment. However, the country’s most popular model in<br />
2017 was Russian Helicopters’ medium-sized twin-turbine — the Mi-8.<br />
In both the helicopter and business jet segments, there is a lot of room<br />
to grow. The question stands as to how quickly this can happen.<br />
“We expect a slow growth from business aviation in Vietnam, as<br />
most Vietnam HNWIs do not eye foreign markets, but only domestic<br />
markets” says DHT Aviation. “This will prevent them from purchasing<br />
their own business jet, due to a limited travel demand.”<br />
DHT Aviation further explained the perception of a business jet within<br />
the country is still skewed, with many preferring not to attract public<br />
attention which a purchase would bring.<br />
Even with the market needing more information on the benefits of<br />
business aviation, the industry is still doing what it can to support<br />
future growth. DHT Aviation for instance is proposing a plan for<br />
a business jet-dedicated terminal and it foresees an increased in<br />
business jet charter to and from surrounding countries.<br />

UPCOMING AIRCRAFT<br />
DASSAULT FALCON 6X<br />
Dassault Falcon is the recognized global brand for Dassault business<br />
jets which are designed, manufactured and supported by Dassault<br />
Aviation and Dassault Falcon Jet Corp. Adding to its family of jets, the<br />
French manufacturer announced the addition of the Falcon 6X — the<br />
most spacious, advanced and versatile twinjet in business aviation —<br />
at the end of February 2018. The new 5,500NM jet will make its first<br />
flight in early 2021 and begin deliveries in 2022.<br />
The latest model replaces the Falcon 5X, a cancelled project due to<br />
delays in its Silvercrest engines. Powering the Falcon 6X is Pratt &<br />
Whitney Canada’s PurePower ® PW812D engines, capable of producing<br />
13,000-14,000 lbs of thrust. Equipped with a low maintenance<br />
single piece fan and emission reducing Talon combustor, the<br />
PurePower PW800 engines offer the highest efficiency, reliability and<br />
maintainability in the 10,000-20,000 lb class. Setting a new “green”<br />
engine standard for emissions, the engine’s low-noise design and<br />
low-vibration levels contribute to reducing cabin noise for a more<br />
comfortable passenger experience.<br />
With a maximum capability of flying directly from Beijing to San<br />
Francisco or Moscow to Singapore, the 6X has a top speed of Mach<br />
0.90 and a maximum range of 5,500NM. At its long-range cruise<br />
speed of Mach 0.85, the 6X can also connect Paris to Beijing or Los<br />
Angeles to London.<br />

The Falcon 6X can now land with much more fuel than most competing<br />
aircraft, allowing operators to make short stops at interim airports<br />
without having to refuel. Additionally, the twinjet is certified for steep<br />
approaches attributed to its new generation and ultra-efficient wings,<br />
which optimize landing on short runways with difficult approaches.<br />
Dassault Aviation’s own in-house Design Studio. Significantly more<br />
natural light floods into the cabin thanks to 30 extra-large windows<br />
including a unique galley skylight – the first in business aviation –<br />
designed to provide additional brightness in an area usually devoid<br />
of natural light.<br />
With one of the largest cabins of its class, passengers can travel on<br />
the 6X in comfort and style. The aircraft’s cabin is six feet, six inches<br />
(1.98 m) high and 8 feet 6 inches (2.58 m) wide — the highest and<br />
widest cross section in a purpose-built business jet – and is nearly 40<br />
feet 8 inches (12.3 m) long. It can accommodate up to 16 passengers<br />
in three distinct lounge areas, with room for multiple configurations<br />
including a large entry way/crew rest area and a spacious rear lounge.<br />
Every element of the cabin’s design has been meticulously rethought,<br />
the result of an extensive survey of customer tastes and inputs from<br />
While the most attractive highlights of the 6X include its range and<br />
cabin size, 6X owners and operators can also enjoy the extensive global<br />
support network backed by Dassault Aviation. Reduced maintenance<br />
costs, thanks to Dassault’s FalconCare program, not only allows for<br />
budget predictability but provides extended maintenance intervals.<br />
With service centers on six continents, including authorized service<br />
facilities in Beijing, Shanghai, Hong Kong and Singapore, there is now<br />
more support than ever before.<br />

SINGAPORE AIRSHOW<br />
ASIA’S LARGEST AEROSPACE AND<br />
DEF<strong>EN</strong>CE SHOW<br />
The Singapore Airshow, deemed Asia’s largest aerospace and defence exhibitions, was<br />
held in early February at Singapore’s Changi Exhibition Centre.<br />
Connecting the global aviation industry, 1,062 companies from 50<br />
countries participated in this year’s event, featuring representatives<br />
from Airbus, Bell Helicopter, Boeing, Bombardier, Embraer, Israel<br />
Aerospace Industries (IAI), Pratt & Whitney, Rolls-Royce, ST<br />
Engineering, Thales and UTC Aerospace Systems.<br />
“The biennial Singapore Airshow plays a vital role in supporting the<br />
aviation ecosystem in Singapore and Asia Pacific upon which so many<br />
skilled jobs depend on,” said ICF International Principal, Richard Brown.<br />
“It’s the place for current and potential customers and suppliers to<br />
meet, network, do business and evaluate new opportunities together.<br />
It’s also a great showcase for new technologies and important to<br />
encourage the next generation of aviation talent to seek employment<br />
in aviation. By focusing on next generation technologies, encouraging<br />
start-ups to exhibit for the first time and promoting the capabilities<br />
and offerings around Southeast Asia and beyond, the show provides a<br />
time-efficient way to develop new business.”<br />
2018 saw an increase in trade visitors, as well as 287 VIP delegations,<br />
with over 70 percent of exhibitors committing to a return in 2020.<br />
Making its unwavering commitment to the Asia-Pacific’s aviation<br />
industry, more than 100 companies were featured at the US pavilion,<br />
making it the largest US presence ever at the Singapore Airshow.<br />
The show concluded its trade segment (Feb 6-9) on an optimistic<br />
note, with strong commendations of the wide-range of opportunities<br />
to connect stakeholders, disruptive technologies to drive change and<br />
unique interaction platforms to shape the future.<br />
Strategic partnerships established at the Airshow saw discussions<br />
and showcases around digital data revolution to drive intelligence<br />
across the entire value-chain of the aviation industry. Examples<br />
include Airbus’ <strong>Sky</strong>wise Predictive Maintenance Services enabling<br />
open aviation data platforms for full aircraft data and advanced<br />

digital strategy which represents a paradigm shift in<br />
the way it designs, produces and supports propulsion systems.<br />
Bringing together ground-breaking aerospace and defence<br />
technologies, the What’s Next? showcase saw an in-depth exchange<br />
between start-ups pitching new technologies and innovations to<br />
potential investors.<br />
22 | ASIAN SKY QUARTERLY — FIRST QUARTER 2018
INDUSTRY EV<strong>EN</strong>T<br />
With the rise of disruptive and innovative technologies, visitor<br />
experience was greatly enhanced at this year’s show. The use of<br />
innovative technologies allowed exhibitors to provide an immersive<br />
experience for visitors of all ages to engage and interact with the<br />
exhibits through 3-D simulations, virtual reality and augmented reality,<br />
in addition to the existing physical mock-ups.<br />
Visitors to the Airshow were treated to the exhilarating aerobatics<br />
of the flying display performances including those of the Republic<br />
of Singapore Air Force (RSAF)’s integrated aerial display team,<br />
comprising of an F-15SG, along with two F-16Cs fighter jets. Other<br />
displays included the Indonesia Air Force (TNI-AU) Jupiter Aerobatic<br />
Team’s KT-1B, the U.S. Air Force (USAF)’s F-16 and B-52 Stratofortress,<br />
the Sukhoi Su-30MKM from the Royal Malaysian Air Force (RMAF),<br />
and Royal Thai Air Force (RTAF)’s JAS-39 C/D Gripen, which made<br />
their first appearances in Singapore.<br />
Over at the Static Aircraft Display Area, visitors were given<br />
opportunities to get up-close and personal with the wide range of<br />
commercial and military aircraft.<br />

The F-35B Lightning II — the world’s first supersonic short takeoff/<br />
vertical landing (STOVL) stealth aircraft, made an appearance at an<br />
Airshow in Asia for the first time. There were also a range of business<br />
and commercial aircraft which appeared for the first time at an<br />
Airshow in Asia. Among them were the Gulfstream G500 and G600<br />
aircraft, Textron Aviation’s Cessna Citation Longitude, and Embraer’s<br />
fourth prototype of a next-generation narrow-body jet – the E-190<br />
E2 prototype. Nicknamed the “profit hunter”, the prototype features a<br />
tiger’s face painted on its nose in a nod to Embraer’s respect for Asia.<br />
Additionally, the HondaJet, the fastest, highest-flying, quietest, and most<br />
fuel-efficient jet in its class, made its debut at the Singapore Airshow.<br />
“We are heartened to see the overwhelming support and interest in<br />
the sixth edition of the Singapore Airshow, as it draws in exhibitors<br />
and visitors alike from all around the world. This goes to show that<br />
Singapore is an aviation hub not only to the industry, but also aviation<br />
fans around the globe,” said Mr Leck Chet Lam, Managing Director of<br />
Experia Events, organisers of Singapore Airshow.<br />
Singapore Airshow 2020 will be held from 11 to 16 February at Changi<br />
Exhibition Centre.<br />

The above chart reflects where certain aircraft models are positioned<br />
in terms of supply and demand (based on a ratio of completed<br />
transactions compared to the number of sellers and the average<br />
number of days on the market for a transaction to take place).<br />
These indications do not necessarily mean that prices will be higher in<br />
the future, but it does indicate that sellers of these particular models<br />
are more likely to find willing buyers in a shorter period of time than the<br />
overall average.<br />
For some model types, given the market indicators shown on the<br />
previous page, the stabilization in pre-owned asking prices and<br />
decline in inventory level appear to have stimulated increased<br />
demand, leading to an increase in transactions and a more balanced<br />
state of supply and demand.<br />
This can be seen most with certain Gulfstream (G200, G450, G550,<br />
G650) and Bombardier models (Challenger 604/605 & Global 6000)<br />
where more transactions are occurring relative to the number for<br />
sale, and transactions are requiring less time on the market for<br />
sellers to complete.<br />

The above chart provides a visual representation of the Supply /<br />
Demand Ratio of each aircraft model relative to the overall market,<br />
and is based on a ‘Marketability’ calculation for each particular model<br />
including the following four market indicators:<br />
1. The percentage of aircraft for sale relative to its fleet size.<br />
2. The number of aircraft sold relative to the average number for sale.<br />
3. The average days for sale relative to the overall market average.<br />
4. The momentum of the marketplace (represented by the trend<br />
towards supply and demand market equilibrium portrayed earlier).<br />
When taking into account these four factors, the Bombardier Challenger<br />
605, the Falcon 2000 class and the various Gulfstream models appear<br />
well positioned to find buyers available.<br />

REVITALIZING CITIES<br />
WITH SEAPLANES<br />
INTERVIEW WITH HIRONORI ABE<br />
VICE PRESID<strong>EN</strong>T OF AVIATION COMPANY,<br />
SETOUCHI HOLDINGS INC.<br />
Interview by Litalia Yoakum<br />
The Japanese prefecture of Hiroshima, located along the Seto Inland Sea, is known<br />
for its natural beauty made up of mountainous landscape, sprawling valleys and<br />
a vast coastline. Hiroshima’s rich history dates back for centuries, and is home<br />
to a fascinating culture. Over the years, however, the prefecture lost many of its local citizens to burgeoning outside regions.<br />
To revitalize Hiroshima, Japanese firm Setouchi Holdings — subsidiary of shipbuilding company Tsuneishi Group, stepped in.<br />
The company, started by Tsuneishi Group’s owner Katsushige Kambara, aimed to revive the prefecture through tourism and,<br />
consequently, through the introduction of Setouchi Seaplanes, bringing convenient transportation and infrastructure to an<br />
overlooked, yet picturesque, region.<br />
Setouchi Holdings is focused on aviation with three business<br />
segments — as owner of the US-based aircraft manufacturer Quest<br />
Aircraft (which builds the Kodiak 100), as a sales dealer for the Kodiak<br />
throughout much of the Asia-Pacific region, and as an operator of the<br />
Kodiak 100 seaplane by means of Setouchi Seaplanes. The Kodiak<br />
100 sits at the forefront of Setouchi Holdings’ plans to invigorate the<br />
Hiroshima prefecture.<br />
The Kodiak 100 is built in Sandpoint, Idaho in the northwestern<br />
region of the United States. Originally designed to be the ultimate<br />
humanitarian workhouse, the unique combination of robust<br />
construction and remarkable payload capability has resulted in many<br />
additional applications for the Kodiak, including float (amphibious<br />
and straight) operations, special missions, medevac, skydiving and<br />
more. The owner-flown segment continues to gain momentum<br />
as well, particularly in the North American marketplace. The<br />
Kodiak’s rugged aluminum construction combines superior STOL<br />
performance and high useful load. It offers proven turbine reliability<br />
with the Pratt & Whitney PT6 turbine engine, has the ability to land<br />
and take off from unimproved surfaces and is capable of working off<br />
floats without structural upgrades. The Kodiak can take off in under<br />
1,000 feet at its full gross takeoff weight of 7,255 lbs and climb at<br />
over 1,300 feet per minute.<br />
Setouchi Seaplanes, based at the Onomichi Floating Port in the city of<br />
Onomichi, has been operating this amphibious Kodiaks since August<br />
2016, making the Kodiak the first seaplane to be in service in Japan<br />
in over 50 years. To date, there are twelve Kodiak 100s in Japan, used<br />
for various missions. Due to the success of the amphibious aircraft,<br />
Setouchi Seaplanes has since targeted the Philippines.<br />
32 | ASIAN SKY QUARTERLY — FIRST QUARTER 2018
INDUSTRY INSIGHTS<br />
“We currently have one seaplane in the Philippines,” says Hironori<br />
Abe, Setouchi Holdings’ Vice President, who is leading the company’s<br />
expansion into the country. “We are working with a local partner who<br />
already has an air operator’s certificate (AOC). The main headquarter<br />
will be based in Manila, with additional operations in Battan, Subic<br />
and Palawan.”<br />
The geographic layout of the Philippines, home to over 7,000 islands,<br />
makes the seaplane an ideal aircraft. Abe expects tourism, cargo<br />
and passenger transport to be the main mission segments across<br />
the islands, which are currently faced with infrastructure difficulties,<br />
making transport challenging.<br />
In 2018, Setouchi Holdings will add maintenance capabilities to their<br />
repertoire. And, by 2019, it will be operating a training center for the<br />
Kodiak, continuing to focus on promoting the Kodiak within the Asia-<br />
Pacific region and Filipino community.<br />
Where we bring transportation,<br />
further infrastructure is also<br />
implemented. There will be the<br />
development of boats, hotels,<br />
and tourism, in general.<br />
“My projection is at least 10 to 15 aircraft in the next year in the<br />
Philippines,” says Abe. “The current single aircraft in country has a lot<br />
of usage and there is already infrastructure in place with numerous<br />
runway strips in the country, making this a feasible goal.”<br />
Outside of the Philippines, Setouchi Holdings Seaplanes has targeted<br />
the Maldives, Sri Lanka and India, as well as the growing Mainland<br />
China market. “In Mainland China, the Kodiak 100 is represented by<br />
a different dealer distributor. Still, there are about 10 to 12 seaplanes<br />
in the country, with growing interest in this aircraft.”<br />
The Kodiak 100’s efficiency and versatility, combined with low<br />
operating costs, has made it appealing to operators across the Asia-<br />
Pacific region.<br />
In each country Setouchi Holdings expands to, Abe hopes to<br />
help revitalize the area, just as it has done for Japan’s Hiroshima<br />
prefecture. “Aviation is not only aviation, but it is also transportation,”<br />
explains Abe. “Where we bring transportation, further infrastructure<br />
is also implemented. There will be the development of boats, hotels,<br />
and tourism, in general.”<br />
Having already accomplished a success story with seaplanes in<br />
Hiroshima, the future for Setouchi Holdings and its seaplanes<br />
looks bright.<br />

PRE-OWNED MARKET SPOTLIGHT<br />
FALCON 2000 SERIES<br />
One of the most popular and successful Falcons to date is the Falcon<br />
2000 series, with more than 600 of the series in service today. Cost<br />
effective and capable, each variation has built on the original model’s<br />
many strengths. After entering the market in 1995, the series has<br />
evolved to include the Falcon 2000EX, DX, LX, S and LXS.<br />
FIRST QUARTER 2018 — ASIAN SKY QUARTERLY | 35
PRE-OWNED SPOTLIGHT<br />
MODEL INTRODUCTION<br />
Theoriginal twin-engine 2000 introduced in 1995 is based on and<br />
slightly smaller than the three-engine Falcon 900, which itself was<br />
introduced in 1986. The 2000 offered a transcontinental range of<br />
3,000NM, powered by CFE738-1-1B turbofans. The 2000’s large cabin<br />
has remained the same throughout its evolution, maintaining a cabin<br />
volume of 1,024 cubic feet (excluding cockpit and baggage), a cabin<br />
length of 26.17ft, along with a height of 74 in and width of 92 in.<br />
In 2004, the 2000EX entered service powered by — what is now<br />
the standard engine in the series — the Pratt & Whitney PW308C<br />
turbofans. The EX’s range was slightly longer with a range of 3,900NM.<br />
Both the 2000 and its EX variant utilized Rockwell Collins Pro Line 4<br />
avionics system. This system was upgraded with the addition of the<br />
2000EX EASy, which used Honeywell’s Enhanced Avionics System<br />
(EASy), allowing for improved navigation and communication.<br />
The 2000LX entered the market in 2007. Able to fly a max range<br />
of 4,000NM, this variant of the series has been highly successful<br />
and features the addition of blended winglets improving the aircraft’s<br />
performance by reducing drag, as well as lower emission engines.<br />
Just a year later, the DX variant entered service. With a reduced range<br />
of 3,425NM, the DX is often seen as a more cost-effective model for<br />
those not requiring the extra range of the LX.<br />
The 2000S and 2000LXS are the latest in the series to enter the<br />
market, as well as the only two still in production. The ‘S’ variant,<br />

steep approach capability. It also features the EASy II flight deck,<br />
reducing pilot workload and automating or abbreviating tasks that<br />

The earliest variation of the series (2000) has the largest fleet (230)<br />
and is, consequently, the most active in the pre-owned market. In<br />
March 2018, there were 17 available on the market, most of which<br />
are based in North America. The ‘LX’ has a significantly smaller fleet<br />

Inventory levels have reduced drastically,<br />
particularly in the last quarter of 2017. The<br />
Falcon 2000, which in 2016 consistently<br />
saw around 12-14% of its worldwide fleet<br />
for sale, has decreased to about 11% of its<br />
fleet for sale at the end of 2017 and below<br />
8% in March 2018. The ‘LX’ fleet for sale<br />
saw the greatest decrease, falling to 2% of<br />
its worldwide fleet for sale. Overall supply of<br />
the ‘LX’, ‘S’ and ‘LXS’ reached a historic low at<br />
the end of 2017, although supply has since<br />
slightly increased.<br />

PERC<strong>EN</strong>TAGE FOR SALE - MAJOR MODELS<br />
In Q1 of 2018, the average asking price of the<br />
2000 model was approximately US$5.0M,<br />
slightly higher than the second half of 2017<br />
when a price decrease stimulated market<br />
activity, particularly in the US. Consequently<br />
the majority of transactions for the 2000<br />
model have taken place between US-based<br />
buyers and US-based sellers. Buyers can<br />
now expect a range of US$2.5M to US$6.5M,<br />
with the EX model trading at US$6.75M to<br />
US$7.5M. Demand for the 2000 and ‘EX’<br />
favors the 1999 and newer models, along<br />
with a 10-passenger interior. The average<br />
asking price of the LX is US$14.6M, which<br />
is also an increase from lower prices in the<br />
second half 2017. Buyers can now expect a<br />
range of US$13.5M to US$19M.<br />

BRINGING AVIATION AND<br />
FINANCING TOGETHER<br />
INTERVIEW WITH VIOLET KWEK,<br />
SALES DIRECTOR, GREATER CHINA AND NORTH ASIA<br />
GLOBAL JET CAPITAL<br />
Interview by Litalia Yoakum<br />
In February 2017, Violet Kwek joined private aircraft financier Global Jet Capital as Sales Director, Greater China<br />
and North Asia, after years of experience in corporate and ship financing. Just one year in, Violet has led the team<br />
to close its first deals in North Asia, including an operating lease with a Hong Kong-based client. Global Jet Capital<br />
is now seeing an increased demand for financing, as the demand for business jets in the Asia-Pacific region grows.<br />
Tell me about your experience prior to joining<br />
Global Jet Capital?<br />
I started working in corporate finance in 2004 in Singapore. My career<br />
in transportation started in 2007 when I joined DVB Bank Singapore<br />
as an Associate in their Mergers and Acquisitions Shipping team.<br />
Subsequently I moved to the ship leasing team, structuring finance and<br />
operating leases to shipowners based in Southeast Asia and India.<br />
In January 2010, I joined Standard Chartered Bank’s Structured Finance<br />
team in Shipping as an Associate Director in Hong Kong where I built<br />
up the shipping debt and lease portfolio in China and Taiwan across a<br />
diverse range of clients spanning private enterprises, conglomerates to<br />
state-owned enterprises and Chinese leasing companies. I became an<br />
Executive Director in Shipping Finance in 2014<br />
My last role prior to joining Global Jet Capital was the Deputy Head of<br />
Shipping Finance and thereafter the Deputy Head of Corporate Banking<br />
in the Hong Kong branch of China Minsheng Banking Corporation.<br />
What are buyer’s options, in terms of financing?<br />
There are 3 main types of financing:<br />
• Loans;<br />
• Finance leases; and<br />
• Operating leases.<br />
When considering financing products and being able to obtain the<br />
financing, some of the key elements buyers should consider include:<br />
• Initial budget: The combination of 1) the down payment<br />
required from the buyer; 2) The upfront expenses in relation to<br />
the aircraft and its financing; and 3) asset under management<br />
requirements and/or any related cash security deposit.<br />
• Ongoing costs: The annual total cost of the loan/lease<br />
payments and the fixed and variable aircraft operating costs.<br />
• Maintenance programs: Many financiers will require the<br />
aircraft to be on at least engines and APU programs. Buyers<br />
should check whether a pre-owned aircraft is enrolled in these<br />
programs. Some aircraft owners who paid cash for their aircraft<br />
and subsequently wish to refinance their aircraft, may have to<br />
pay a significant buy-in fee to enrol in these programs as their<br />
aircraft gets older.<br />
• Residual risk on the aircraft: Buyers take the residual risk on<br />
an aircraft with a loan or a finance lease. So buyers need to<br />
consider if they want to take this residual risk on the aircraft or<br />
pass it on to a lessors like Global Jet Capital with an operating<br />
lease solution. In this way should the then market value of the<br />
aircraft be lower than its expected value at time of the sale<br />
when the owner wants to upgrade his/her aircraft, the risk of<br />
this price differential is passed on to the operating lessor.<br />

INDUSTRY INSIDER<br />
What are some of the benefits of financing?<br />
In general financing allows a buyer to utilise their funds more efficiently<br />
to maximise their returns, as typically the return on equity is much<br />
higher than the cost of financing.<br />
When a buyer is in a situation where he/she has a substantial amount<br />
of cash and have no better projects or products to invest in, then it may<br />
be more beneficial for such clients to go for a lower cost of financing<br />
such as a loan/finance lease or pay cash for their aircraft. Of course if<br />
such cash rich buyers want to manage the aircraft’s residual risk with<br />
no exposure to market fluctuations, they can always look for Global Jet<br />
Capital to provide operating lease solutions to transfer that residual risk<br />
to us.<br />
Other benefits of an operating lease solution for a business jet include:<br />
• Lower cash outlay: Given financing of up to 100% of the fair<br />
market value can be provided, the lessee typically only needs to<br />
fund the security deposit vs the 20-30% down payment required<br />
for a loan or finance lease typically.<br />
• Ease and flexibility on exit: Full flexibility to upgrade or exit with<br />
no aircraft to remarket at end of lease as there is no need for the<br />
owner to wait to sell the aircraft;<br />
• Predictable costs: Predictable lease and maintenance costs for<br />
precise budgeting as there are no bumpy cash outlays on the<br />
aircraft purchase and/or a loss on sale in book value on disposal<br />
of the aircraft.<br />
Why is it beneficial to use Global Jet Capital<br />
over a traditional bank?<br />
Different clients have different needs hence each client will require<br />
financing solutions that meets their needs and requirements.<br />
Some of the advantages of financing with Global Jet Capital include:<br />
• We may offer a higher financing loan-to-value ratio in respect to<br />
the aircraft’s fair market value.<br />
• As we are not a private bank, we do not require a minimum asset<br />
under management that a new client will need to deposit and/<br />
or invest in wealth management products, though we will require<br />
a cash security deposit. As such the client has the flexibility<br />
to invest in any type of assets they want and/or invest in their<br />
businesses or family office which may generate higher returns.<br />
• We typically work with clients to understand their requirements<br />
and tailor a solution specific for them based on their requirements<br />
and their financial metrics.<br />
• We are one of the few if not the only financier in the Asia-Pacific<br />
region that offers operating leases on business jets, the benefits<br />
of which have had been mentioned earlier.<br />
For some Chinese clients, the advantages of financing with Global Jet<br />
Capital may be more pronounced as our financing products allow them<br />
utilise their precious offshore cash more effectively and efficiently for<br />
other investments and needs.<br />
The main disadvantage of an operating lease is that the lease is not<br />
easily terminated as the lessor has taken a view on the expected<br />
residual value at the end of the lease and, as such, priced the lease<br />
rate accordingly for the full lease term. A shorter lease term will entail<br />
a higher lease rate and therefore an early termination payment if this<br />
is the case.<br />
What are some common misconceptions<br />
surrounding aircraft financing?<br />
The most common one is the misconception that operating leases<br />
do not require guarantees. Even though aircraft financing is an asset<br />
based financing, all forms of financing require a counterparty who has<br />
adequate financial strength to maintain their financial obligations. The<br />
key difference between an operating lease and a finance lease or a loan<br />
is that the residual risk is borne by the lessor rather than the lessee/<br />
borrower. A bank providing a property loan will also analyse whether a<br />
borrower has the adequate financial means to make his or her monthly<br />
repayments despite having the property mortgaged to them.<br />
As most aircraft are owned by special purpose vehicles with no assets<br />
or operations other than the aircraft, the aircraft lessor will require a<br />
guarantor to ensure the lease payments will be made, no different than<br />
a home loan. Just like banks providing home loans, they are in the<br />
business of providing financing, not leasing out residential apartments.<br />
Global Jet Capital is in the business of providing business jet financing,<br />
not leasing out business jets.<br />
Different clients have<br />
different needs hence each<br />
client will require financing<br />
solutions that meets their<br />
needs and requirements .<br />
What can be expected from Global Jet Capital<br />
over the next couple of years?<br />
For the North Asia region, we will continue to expand our presence in<br />
China and will look to develop our presence on other parts of North Asia<br />
such as Japan, Korea and Taiwan where we expect that our operating<br />
lease product may allow us to compete with the competitively priced<br />
traditional bank financings.<br />
We will also endeavour to provide a more diverse range of financing<br />
structures that is tailored and reflects the needs of the different<br />
geographical markets in line with our aim to deliver innovative solutions<br />
to our clients.<br />
www.globaljetcapital.com<br />
Another misconception is that as a non-bank financier, some clients<br />
may have the impression we do not require or have loose KYC (Know<br />
Your Customer), anti-money laundering and anti-terrorism checks. In<br />
this respect, we are no different and have such similar requirements as<br />
with any bank.<br />
