The Problem

Aircraft Transactions Are Built on
Incomplete Intelligence.

In a market where a single transaction can represent hundreds of thousands of dollars, buyers typically make decisions based on a brief logbook review and a handshake. There is no standardized, independent intelligence layer — until now.

"A Cessna 182 with a score of 91 and a Cessna 182 with a score of 52 can look identical on a listing. Only one of them belongs in an offer."

— Vantage Aviation Advisory
No Standardized Condition Report
Unlike automotive transactions — where Carfax is table stakes — general aviation has no independent, standardized condition report. Every transaction starts from zero.
Logbook Complexity Is a Barrier
A thorough logbook analysis requires hours of work, expertise in ADs, annual requirements, and component tracking — skills most buyers and even many brokers don't possess.
Hidden Risk Doesn't Announce Itself
An overdue annual, expired LLPs, or a gap in logbook continuity can turn a promising aircraft into a liability. These flags are rarely disclosed — and rarely noticed.
Title Risk Goes Undetected
Open liens, undocumented transfers, and unresolved FAA security agreements can cloud title — and expose buyers to legal liability. AeroScore surfaces these risks before closing.

AeroScore™

A 100-Point Intelligence Score for
Every Aircraft Transaction.

AeroScore™ is not a logbook review. It is a deterministic scoring engine — ten weighted risk categories, FAA public data enrichment, and a full narrative brief tailored to your role in the transaction.

Deterministic, Not Discretionary
Every score is calculated by the same rules, applied the same way. Hard caps enforce airworthiness reality — an aircraft with an overdue annual cannot score above certain thresholds, regardless of everything else.
FAA Public Data Enrichment
Every report is cross-referenced against FAA registry, NTSB accident database, Federal Register ADs, FAA Document Index for title and lien status, and TCDS engine/prop approval lists.
Role-Specific Intelligence
The same analysis, delivered differently for buyers, sellers, and brokers. Each report includes the intelligence most relevant to your position in the transaction.

Our Philosophy

The aircraft transaction market is not broken because good people aren't involved. It's broken because good people don't have good intelligence. A seller who doesn't know their annual is overdue can't price their aircraft correctly. A buyer who doesn't know a major engine overhaul is 200 hours away can't negotiate correctly.

AeroScore™ doesn't replace the pre-buy inspection, the A&P, or the aviation attorney. It gives every party in the transaction the intelligence layer they need to have those conversations from an informed position.

"One real report beats a thousand promises. Our goal with every AeroScore™ is to deliver something concrete — a number, a narrative, and a plan — that changes the outcome of a transaction."
