Nov. 6, 2019
Eight planes kick off private luxury sale experience.

Assent Aeronautics announced that it will host the first in a series of live, private luxury aircraft auctions Dec. 12 – 14. The first of its kind, dubbed the Assent Platinum Aviation Auction, will include the following catalog of planes:

  • 2014 Challenger 605
  • 2002 Falcon 2000
  • 2007 Citation Mustang
  • 1998 Citation Bravo (2)
  • 1990 Citation V
  • 2018 Robinson R66
  • 1977 King Air 100A

In addition to this initial catalog, Assent Aeronautics invites business aircraft owners to consign their aircraft for the December auction. “With the recent launch of our aircraft brokerage and advisory business unit, we are uniquely qualified to assess a plane’s value and establish its eligibility for our auction,” said W. Hulsey Smith, president, Assent Aeronautics. Prospective consigners may submit an application via the company’s website Nov. 11 – 15. The company will evaluate piston, rotor-wing, turbine and turboprop aircraft for consignment.

“This auction is not your typical aircraft auction,” said Smith. “The Assent Platinum Aviation Auction seeks high value aircraft owners—aviation aficionados, if you will—and bidders only qualified through our vetting process who will find the luxury experience they deserve associated with this type of sale,” said Smith.

How to Bid and Consign Bidders must register on the company’s website and submit a bidder registration form accompanied by a bank Letter of Guarantee or a notarized Escrow Deposit Confirmation. Assent Aeronautics is offering a promotional Advance Bidder Registration Fee of $500.00 from Nov. 6 – 22. From Nov. 23 the Bidder Registration Fee increases to $1,000.00.
