Modern Aviation’s Response to COVID-19

“Our focus is to ensure we meet customer needs while doing our part to keep you, our employees, and our communities safe.”

To our valued customers and friends,

As we do our part to control the spread of COVID-19, our priority is to continue to provide the world-class service and safety to which you’ve grown accustomed, while protecting the health and safety of our customers, our colleagues and all of our families.

We have implemented enhanced cleaning protocols to ensure your safety.  Following the CDC’s COVID-19 recommendation, our employees are wearing face masks for the protection and safety of everyone. Our employees who feel well and have no symptoms are reporting to work and practicing good hygiene by washing their hands often and using hand sanitizer.  We have also directed them to not shake hands and practice social distancing even with customers so please be respectful of these necessary operational changes during this critical time.

We have taken, and will continue to take, all necessary precautionary measures as advised by local health officials. We are sterilizing sites and common areas and providing hand sanitizers, wipes and tissues throughout our facilities. We remain fully operational at all of our locations.  We would also like to ensure our customers are adhering to our policies and respectfully request if you feel sick to inform our facility in advance of your arrival so our employees can be prepared for your arrival.

In those circumstances, we would strongly prefer any ill customers who are departing to be driven directly onto the ramp to a waiting aircraft and those who are arriving to inform us that there is a sick passenger and we can have a car waiting for you/them on the ramp.

We are closely monitoring the guidance of the World Health Organization and the Centers for Disease Control regarding the spread of the virus. Our focus is to ensure we meet customer needs while doing our part to keep you, our employees, and our communities safe. Your safety is our highest priority and we truly appreciate the trust that you place in our team and our company.

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.

Stay well,

Mark Carmen

This process allows you to truly understand what aircraft fits your needs for yourself, your business, or your family.

During this process we completely represent you, the buyer, and offer no bias to any aircraft. Our top priority is identifying an aircraft that meets or exceeds your expectations and requirements.

Before any acquisition we mutually agree on a flat fee before the process begins to ensure impartiality and peace of mind. This way you will know we are presenting the best option that fits your needs.

AIRCRAFT APPRAISALS

Owning an asset, such as an aircraft, is important and so is understanding the market your aircraft falls under. Similar to other pieces of complex equipment, they too depreciate at varying increments. It is important to receive an expert valuation of your aircraft and a professional opinion of what to expect in the coming months regarding your aircraft.

At Modern Aviation we rely on a proven method of comparing your aircraft attributes to similar aircraft that have sold recently. We also rely on years of experience and state-of-the art industry valuation tools to accurately value your aircraft given the current market.
