The right structure for your aviation requirements
Single-Engine Turboprop Finance
Pilatus PC-12, Daher TBM 960, Piper Meridian, and Socata Trinidad series. Finance for the premium owner-flown turboprop market - business owners who fly themselves and want the highest performance from a single engine.
Twin Turboprop Finance
Beechcraft King Air 90, 200, and 350. The world's best-selling turboprop range. Finance for corporate operators, charter companies, and owner-operators who need cabin space alongside performance.
Pilatus PC-24 Finance
The Pilatus PC-24 jet - the natural progression from the PC-12. Finance for this unique 9-seat twin-jet that brings turboprop versatility to the light jet market.
Hire Purchase
Own the turboprop at end of term. Fixed monthly payments over 5-10 years. Capital allowances available for business use. The most common structure for privately-owned turboprops.
Finance Lease
Lower monthly payments. Suited to corporate operators who prefer to upgrade to newer turboprop technology at the end of the lease rather than holding an owned asset.
Sale & Leaseback
Release capital from a turboprop you already own. Useful for operators funding fleet expansion or business working capital while retaining operational use of the aircraft.

Frequently asked questions
What turboprop types can be financed?
All major turboprop types - Pilatus PC-12 and PC-24, Beechcraft King Air 90/200/350, Daher TBM 910/940/960, Piper Meridian/M600, Socata TBM, Epic Aircraft, and other certified single and twin turboprops. New and used.
Do I need to be enrolled on an engine programme?
Specialist aviation lenders strongly prefer turboprop aircraft enrolled on approved engine programmes (P&W Eagle Service Plan, Honeywell MSP, GE On-Point). Aircraft not on programme attract lower advance rates and some lenders will decline without it.
What is the typical advance on a King Air?
Typically 70-80% of current open market value for well-maintained King Airs on engine programme. The King Air's global secondary market supports strong advance rates.
Can I finance a turboprop through a company?
Yes - turboprop finance is commonly arranged through a limited company for UK operators. Corporation tax capital allowances on qualifying aircraft, and VAT reclaimable where the aircraft is used for business purposes.
Is N-registered turboprop finance available?
Yes - specialist aviation lenders are comfortable financing N-registered turboprops operated in the UK. US-based specialist lenders are often the best route for N-reg aircraft.
