ASG Releases 2017 Q4 Asian Sky Quarterly, Sees Continued Improvement in Pre-Owned Market
LAS VEGAS, NEVADA, February 26, 2018 — Hong Kong business aviation consulting firm Asian Sky Group (ASG) has released its 2017 Q4 edition of Asian Sky Quarterly, complete with an updated forecast on the business jet and civil helicopter markets throughout the Asia-Pacific region. The report is being released in conjunction with ASG’s appearance at HAI Heli-Expo in Las Vegas, Nevada, USA.
The ninth edition of Asian Sky Quarterly provides the usual insights on the Asia-Pacific region: market intelligence and trends; data on the mood of the Asia market from its quarterly survey; and availability and prices for specific pre-owned aircraft types.
“ASG’s analysis and metrics indicated a very positive trend reversal in the pre-owned market as early as a year ago, back at the beginning of 2017. We then reported in each subsequent issue of Asian Sky Quarterly on these improving market conditions as they went uninterrupted from strength to strength as the year progressed,” says ASG Managing Director, Jeffrey Lowe. “Now it is pretty much universally held that the market, especially for jets, is in great shape at the moment - optimism, utilization, purchase intentions, market dynamics to name a few - they are all at high points. We are even seeing improving conditions in the rotary market. So, 2018 is shaping up to be an interesting year for the whole industry. Of course, with Asian Sky Quarterly we try to stay six months ahead of any changes in the market so our readers can make better informed business decisions.”
In addition, the 2017 Q4 edition of Asian Sky Quarterly features a profile on business aviation in Indonesia; an in-depth look at the pre-owned markets for Airbus’ H125 and AS350 B3; and a spotlight on Bell Helicopter’s new 505 and 525. ASG also had the chance to interview Execujet Indonesia’s Regional FBO Manager, Gary Forster, as well as getting insight on the industry from ASG’s newest team members — Nicole Wang, Sales Manager, Greater China and Vrushali Suvarna, Business Development Manager.
Asian Sky Quarterly is available digitally in English and Chinese. For copies of all ASG’s reports, please visit www.asianskymedia.com.
