frequently asked questions
Common questions about aviation finance for Australian operators and private owners.
What types of aircraft can be financed?
Aviation finance covers fixed-wing aircraft, helicopters, ultralights, gliders, and commercial aircraft. Both new and used aircraft qualify with specialist aviation lenders.
Do I need to be a commercial operator to get aviation finance?
No. Both private owners and commercial operators (charter, training, agriculture, emergency services) can access aviation finance, though rates and terms differ between use cases.
What deposit is needed for aviation finance?
Aviation deposits typically range from 20 to 30% due to higher asset values and specialist resale markets. Strong operators with consistent revenue may secure lower deposits.
How long does aviation finance take to arrange?
Aviation deals typically take 1 to 2 weeks due to additional due diligence on the aircraft, registration, and operator. Initial indicative approvals can come back in 48 to 72 hours.
