US-based brokerage FXSolutions has surpassed $1.3 billion in aircraft transactions since 2022, completing more than 70 closings and highlighting strong momentum in the large-cabin segment. The company, part of the Directional Aviation group, says it has benefitted from access to deep operational and research expertise.

Managing partner Matthew Doyle says: “We pride ourselves on having decades of defined expertise and being positioned at the forefront of the private aviation industry. In reaching this milestone, we affirm our place as a leading brokerage for the finest aircraft in the market.”

Nearly half of FXSolutions’ activity comes from popular Gulfstream aircraft like the G700, G650 and G450. The firm notes that buyers have become more selective and methodical, especially with manufacturers reporting long backlogs. It adds that this has helped maintain pre-owned values and deal flow.

It expects 100% bonus depreciation to spark new sales and increased late-model inventory. The firm is also seeing a shift from full ownership to fractional as costs and staffing pressures mount.

Due to limited pre-buy slots and persistent parts delays, FXSolutions recommends planning for inspections to take around 90 days.
