The commercial effect of each point depends on the aircraft, counterparty and governing documents. Transaction Review Convert Every Clause Into a Cash or Control Question Ask who controls the decision, who pays when the event occurs, which documents prove compliance, and what happens if the aircraft cannot be operated, financed, transferred or returned as planned. ## The 10 Points to Review #1 ## Current Loan Statement The new lender needs current principal, accrued interest and maturity to size the refinance. #2 ## Payoff Letter A formal payoff establishes the exact amount and release conditions for the existing lender. #3 ## Aircraft Appraisal The refinance proceeds are constrained by lender value and advance policy rather than owner equity estimates alone. #4 ## Maintenance Status Report A current technical status helps the lender quantify near-term cash requirements and collateral quality. #5 ## Engine Program Statements Program status shows whether hourly coverage is current and transferable. #6 ## Financial Statements Credit-based lenders underwrite cash flow, liquidity and leverage alongside aircraft collateral. #7 ## Ownership Documents Entity and title documents establish the borrower, owner and lien-granting parties. #8 ## Insurance Evidence The new lender must be added to acceptable hull and liability coverage at closing. #9 ## Utilization History Historical hours and cycles help forecast maintenance consumption and resale profile. #10 ## Requested Proceeds Schedule A cash-out transaction should state payoff, transaction costs and the amount expected to be released to the owner. ## How to Use the List in a Live Transaction Turn the list into a diligence schedule. Record the current contractual position, requested change, responsible adviser, required evidence and financial consequence for every open item. That keeps legal language tied to operational and economic outcomes. Review Discipline - Quantify the cash effect of every material clause - Assign each diligence item to legal, technical, tax or finance workstreams - Track documents and evidence rather than relying on representations - Model downside cases before agreeing deposits or termination amounts - Confirm closing and post-closing responsibilities in writing ## Frequently Asked Questions Should these points be negotiated before a term sheet is signed? Where possible, yes. Commercial leverage is usually stronger before the parties have invested heavily in documentation, inspections, positioning or closing work. Can standard-form aircraft documents be accepted without changes? Standard forms are useful starting points. The final document still needs to reflect the aircraft, jurisdiction, credit profile, operating model and negotiated economics. Which issues usually create the largest unexpected cash exposure? Maintenance, deposits, minimum utilization, tax, insurance, early termination, redelivery and technical findings frequently create larger cash effects than headline rent or interest alone. Who should review the final transaction documents? Aircraft counsel, tax advisers, technical representatives and financing professionals should review the areas within their scope before closing.
