Purpose of A Pre-buy review

“The Pre-Buy Review is designed to give the potential buyer insight into the aircraft to help with their buying decisions. To give our customers the "best bang for their buck" and to hopefully avoid unnecessarily spending their money, J&G Aviation conducts pre-buy reviews in 3 parts:”


Part 1

Logbook review & aircraft research

The purpose of part 1 is to identify any potential problem aircraft before there is too much time and money spent. J&G will require a copy of all logbooks, a list of equipment (with serial numbers), and a copy of the latest AD report. This will allow us to research and identify any potential issues that could affect the value of the aircraft.

Part 1 Single Engine pricing

Part 1 Dual Engine Pricing


Part 2

Review of the aircraft, forward of the firewall

The purpose of part 2 is to identify any problems in the engine compartment. Historically, aircraft problems most likely to affect the sale, come from issues forward of the firewall and so we believe it is important for the buyer to be comfortable with the engine they are getting before paying for a review of the rest of the aircraft.

Part 2 DUAL Engine Pricing


Part 3

Review of the remaining aircraft

We will open inspection plates and fairings, and remove enough of the interior to be able to determine the general condition of the airframe, with particular attention to corrosion issues, which, if found, we will point out to the potential buyer.

Part 3 SINGLE ENGINE Pricing

Part 3 DUAL ENGINE Pricing


Note: All other inspections (AD, Service Bulletin, etc) will be billed at normal shop rates of $120/hr plus parts (if required).
