Search Example: Find leased aircraft from a Lessor

In this example, we are going to look for the aircraft currently leased from SMBC Aviation Capital, and then we’re going to see which aircraft types are in service with which operators, along with the contact information for those operators.

  1. Start on the Aircraft Section, Detail tab.
  2. In the Quick Filter Search (QFS) type “SMBC” and select SMBC Aviation Capital from the Manager category.
  3. In the QFS type “in service” and select in service from the Status category. You should see around 380 aircraft in the grid.
  4. Now select the Summary Tab and group by Operator and Aircraft Type. You should see around 140 rows in the grid.
  5. As you have filtered by in service aircraft only, it is worth customising the columns in the grid, I’d suggested including Total In Service, Age Range, and Average Age. Your screen should appear similar to that shown in Figure 1.

Search Example: Finding companies (operators, etc.) associated with specific aircraft

In order to find a list of operators, managers, owners, etc. who are associated with aircraft, you first have to search for the relevant aircraft. i.e. you have to start on the Aircraft section.

  1. On the Aircraft section, filter until you have the list of aircraft you are interested in.
  2. Click on the column header of the company role you are interested in e.g. ‘operator’ (if the company role you are interested in is not visible then add it using the Add/Remove columns).
  3. From the drop-down list that appears, select ‘Companies in this role’ (see Figure 1).
  4. You will then be taken to the Companies section, where your list of companies will be displayed in the results (see Figure 2). You can then add company specific filters or company specific columns.

Release Notes v8.8

Old and new registrations on Aircraft Events

On the Aircraft Events search page, we have introduced two new optional columns:

  • Old registration (just prior to an event)
  • New registration (just after an event)

These are in addition to the Current Registration (at today’s date) column. The two new columns are best used in conjunction with events that are likely to result in a change to the aircraft registration:  e.g. purchased, leased-in, etc.
