Collaboration Increases Information Visibility for Aircraft Buyers

CHICAGO, May 4, 2020 – Conklin & de Decker, an industry leader in aviation research, consulting and education, is teaming up with online aviation resource GlobalAir.com to offer customers streamlined access to important aircraft operating expense and life cycle cost data during the research process for jets, turboprops, helicopters and piston aircraft.

Conklin & de Decker enables aircraft owners and buyers to make more informed decisions before making an aircraft acquisition. When browsing GlobalAir.com, prospective buyers can now preview a selection of key aircraft data including range, speed, payload, cabin area and wingspan direct from the advanced aircraft comparison tool, the Conklin & de Decker Report.

If customers require a more detailed analysis of fixed and variable costs, as well as detailed performance and specification data, the full report can be purchased directly through the GlobalAir.com website. Customers will then have the ability to customize their unique operating expenses, review life cycle costs, adjust specific costs to their operation, view aircraft overlays, run customized calculations for various scenarios, and much more.

“This collaboration with GlobalAir.com is an ideal opportunity to share Conklin & de Decker’s valuable insights and data with aircraft buyers around the world, helping them to find the aircraft that best suits their needs,” said Joy Nebel, president of Conklin & de Decker.

“When purchasing high value assets such as aircraft, the accessibility and visibility of data is critical. We recognize the importance of providing buyers with all the information they need to make an informed decision, and partnering with platforms like GlobalAir.com enables us to offer unrivalled insights to an even wider audience,” added Bill de Decker, chairman of Conklin & de Decker.

“Transparency is key in the procurement process and providing buyers with rich data and statistics allows them to compare aircraft models more acutely and precisely, ultimately enabling them to make the best decision for their lift needs,” said Jeffrey Carrithers, president and CEO of GlobalAir.com. “Our users now have a fast, reliable resource that they can use to access accurate information in seconds, not days, right from our platform. We are very excited to work with the Conklin & de Decker team as they bring their analytical expertise and 35 years of aviation research to our platform.”

“It has been a pleasure collaborating with the team at GlobalAir.com to implement this online resource and we are delighted to be launching the new tool within the largest aviation resource on the internet,” added Nebel.
