AV8 Realty has introduced its FBO LeaseMAX and PlaneMAX platforms to improve how FBOs, MROs and private hangar operators manage leasing, planning and profitability.

Founded as a brokerage to simplify aviation real estate for pilots, property owners and investors, AV8 Realty has evolved into an AI-driven platform attracting over 6,500 pilots and aircraft operators monthly.

“FBOs and operators face constant pressure to maximise every square foot of space while minimising operational hurdles,” says Melanie Riddick, broker/owner at AV8 Realty. “With FBO LeaseMAX and PlaneMAX, we're delivering integrated, intelligent solutions that not only fill vacancies faster but also ensure they're filled with high-value tenants that boost fuel sales and services.”

FBO LeaseMAX offers AI-assisted leasing automation, combining international marketing, smart tenant matching and end-to-end digital lease management. Operators only pay when they profit, with costs scaling alongside revenue growth.

PlaneMAX provides full 3D modelling of FBO facilities to optimise space, eliminate guesswork and maximise capacity. The software includes over 600 aircraft models, allows precise positioning and integrates with LeaseMAX for unified leasing and scheduling.

Both systems aim to deliver measurable ROI by automating operations and helping FBOs better manage space and revenue streams.
