RMIT University Flight Training
Hi all
I'm a new member from Australia and director of a large University Flying school in Melbourne. We have been using mainly C172/182's for CPL & PA44 for MECIR training. We have the opportunity to re-fleet in 2020 and currently writing a business case to provide 3 options. Purchase outright, Lease and or a blend. We are also considering changing to Cirrus SR20's.
I'm trying to wrap my head around depreciation and forecast aircraft re-sale value over 5, 10 & 15 years. Does anyone have a fomula or experience in this area? Our current fleet on average is 8yrs and most aircraft fly on average 700hrs per year.
Any help or advice would be welcomed.
