Jet / Aircraft Financing

Asset-based financing for the purchase or refinance of private and business aircraft.

Who this is built for

Operators and businesses acquiring a jet or aircraft who want to finance against the asset.

A transaction of this shape

Illustrative example, not a past transaction. A charter operator wanted to add a pre-owned light jet valued at $4.2M to its fleet without tying up cash. We arranged asset-based financing at 20% down, secured by the aircraft itself. The new tail was flying paid charters within the month and now covers its own note from revenue.

Qualification considerations

What the capital sources behind this structure look at. These are their published parameters, not an offer of credit, and a file that misses one is not automatically declined — it is a conversation about which source fits.

  • Identified aircraft (make/model/year)
  • Down payment available
  • Qualified operator/pilot or management

What usually rules a file out

  • No identified aircraft
  • No down payment

What to have ready

You do not need all of this to start a conversation — submit first, and we will tell you what the specific file needs. This is what a transaction of this kind normally opens with.

  • A description and valuation of the asset
  • A current profit & loss and balance sheet
  • An entity document for the borrowing entity, and a personal financial statement

Business-purpose financing only. Canady Investments is not a bank and does not lend its own funds. This page describes a financing structure and the criteria the capital sources behind it publish; it is not an offer of credit, a commitment to lend, or a guarantee of financing, and nothing here is a quoted rate or term. All terms are subject to underwriting, documentation, and third-party capital source approval.
