challenger 350
Market SNAPSHOT
Today, we're breaking down the core market metrics to help owners, buyers, and corporate flight departments make informed decisions in the current environment. Let's start with a look at the current supply. There are currently 10 aircraft actively for sale globally, which represents a very tight 2.4% of the total 419 in operation fleet. For those evaluating this inventory, the average asking price across available aircraft stands at about $17.5 million, dollars, ranging from a low of around $16 million to a high of about $18.5 million. In terms of transactional velocity, the market moves exceptionally fast. The average days it takes for an available aircraft to transact to a new owner, the days on market, is currently just, about 80 days. This highlights a highly competitive and urgent environment where buyers must act swiftly to secure a quality aircraft. Transactional volume has remained incredibly active. Looking at recent retail sales, the market logged a massive peak of 16 aircraft sold this past December alone, keeping inventory levels heavily constrained. This continuous buying activity and restricted supply has successfully compressed the market, giving us a current absorption rate of just 3.5 months. In summary, the Challenger 350 market remains extremely resilient. Production for this model ended in 2022 to make way for the new Challenger 3500, creating an even stronger appetite for clean, pre-owned Challenger 350 assets. With sub-3% fleet availability, and rapid transaction turnover, this environment is aggressively leaning towards a seller's market.
