Independent Aircraft Advisory.
Structured counsel, prior to any commitment.
Advisory that is genuinely independent is only possible when it is not contingent on a transaction following. Amjet's advisory engagement delivers structured market insight, current valuation, and strategic clarity — for a fixed fee, independent of outcome.
"Across Gulfstream, Bombardier, and Falcon platforms, performance is a given. We go deeper—evaluating OEM support and maintenance realities to define the true cost of ownership before the transaction begins."
— Lutz Druschke, Senior Transaction Advisor, Zürich

"Aircraft performance is a given; long-term viability is not. By understanding the OEM support landscape and obsolescence risks, we define the true cost of ownership—ensuring clarity before commitment."
— Lutz Druschke,
Senior Transaction Advisor, Zürich
"Type Rating across Gulfstream, Bombardier, and Dassault Falcon platforms tell you how an aircraft performs. Twenty years of transactions tells you how a market performs.
But it's the years spent inside the support infrastructure of all three OEMs — navigating parts availability, obsolescence exposure, and the realities of long-term maintainability — that tells you what an aircraft will cost to own. “None of that needs to be learned during your engagement. I already know it.”

— What It IS
Advisory Before Commitment.
Not advice shaped by the broker's need to close the transaction.
Genuine advisory is only possible when the adviser has no financial stake in what you decide. At Amjet, the advisory engagement is a standalone deliverable — structured, documented, fixed fee — completed before any representation decision is made. What you receive is counsel, not a process designed to produce a transaction.
"Insight for What Happens Next; Market reports are hindsight; foresight is our standard. We position you strategically before the market shifts, not after."
—Scott Rogers
Senior Transaction Advisor, Atlanta
"The advisory engagement exists to answer the question before the market forces it. What is the aircraft worth? Is now the right time? What does a controlled process look like? Those answers belong before the first commitment — not after."
— Scott Rogers, Co-Founder & Senior Transaction Advisor, Atlanta • Zürich

— What the Advisory Delivers
Four Structured Outputs.
Delivered prior to any engagement decision.
The advisory engagement produces four discrete outputs — each independently useful, each designed to inform the principal's decision rather than presuppose it.
Output 01
Current Market Valuation
An independent assessment of what the asset is worth in the current market — not what the transaction requires it to be worth. Informed by Amjet's position across both the North American and European large-cabin markets.
Output 02
Transaction Timing Analysis
A structured assessment of market conditions, absorption rates, and comparable activity — producing a recommendation on whether this is the right moment to transact, and if not, what conditions would change that conclusion.
Output 03
Strategic Positioning
For sellers: how to position the asset to protect value and control confidential exposure. For buyers: how to approach the market to preserve negotiating leverage and avoid being steered by the broker network.
Output 04
Transaction Planning Framework
A documented strategic framework for proceeding — covering target pricing, process structure, counterparty qualification criteria, and timeline. The foundation of any subsequent representation engagement if the principal elects to proceed.
— The Fee Structure
A Fixed Fee.
Independent of what follows.
The advisory engagement is priced as a fixed fee — agreed before engagement begins and owed regardless of whether a transaction follows. It is not a deposit against a future commission. It is the fee for the advisory itself. What you pay for is the analysis. What you do with it is your decision.
The structure matters because it removes the only incentive an adviser could have to recommend a transaction that does not serve the principal: there is no commission contingent on a deal closing. The advisory is complete when the advisory is delivered.
Fee Principles
What we are paid, and why, is disclosed before the engagement begins. Always.
— Fixed fee agreed before advisory engagement, not contingent on outcome
— No success fee layered over the advisory
— If representation follows: separate engagement, disclosed separately
— Advice given before the transaction — not shaped by requiring one
— Who this service is for
Four Principal Types.
One common need: counsel before commitment.
The advisory engagement is designed for principals who want structured, independent counsel before deciding whether — and how — to proceed with a transaction. At Amjet, every client relationship is organized around three commitments: Advise — present before the specific decision is formed. Represent — exclusive, unambiguous advocacy when a transaction becomes active. Protect — accountable to the principal's long-term interest in the asset, not just to the transaction itself.
Principal type 01
Aircraft Owners Considering a Sale
Large-cabin or long-range aircraft owners who want to understand their current market position before committing to a sale process. What is the aircraft actually worth? Is now the right time? What would a controlled, confidential execution look like? Advisory before commitment answers those questions before any decision is made.
Principal type 02
Principals Evaluating an Acquisition
Individual buyers considering an acquisition who need independent market visibility and strategic positioning before approaching the market — without being steered by a broker with reciprocal obligations to the sellers whose aircraft are being shown.
Principal type 03
Family Offices
Family offices are organized around the disciplined stewardship of complex assets — yet aircraft often sit outside that discipline, managed operationally but not strategically. An aircraft at this level represents significant capital with meaningful carrying costs and a residual value trajectory that responds to ongoing decisions. Family offices engaging Amjet apply the same advisory discipline to their aviation assets that they apply to every other holding of comparable significance.
Principal type 04
Corporate Flight Departments
Corporate flight departments operate within a governance structure where the acquisition decision involves multiple principals: the CEO who sets the mandate, the CFO who controls the capital, the CLO who reviews the agreements, and the Director of Aviation who manages the operation and lives with the outcome. Amjet works directly with the Director of Aviation and interfaces with the broader decision structure to ensure every stakeholder has the independent perspective the decision requires.
Connection to The Engagement Model
The advisory engagement is Stage 01 of the Amjet three-stage model. It follows the Strategy Conversation — a confidential, no-charge alignment meeting — and precedes Exclusive Representation, which is engaged only when advisory confirms a transaction is the right decision for the principal.
