Rolland Vincent brings out market analysis tool RVantage
RVantage launches with early engagement and global participation, underscoring demand for high quality intelligence across the community. The inaugural RVA Summit '27 will take place 15-16 February 2027.

Rolland Vincent Associates (RVA), an independent US consultancy delivering business aviation intelligence to support strategic decision-making, has unveiled RVantage, a subscription-based industry and market analysis service. The company also unveiled plans for RVA Summit '27, a new thought leadership conference series for the business aviation industry.

Since 2009, RVA has delivered trusted insight into the direction of business aviation markets. Building on more than 15 years of experience producing JETNET iQ Reports, which offered quarterly syndicated research on global economic trends, industry performance, owner and operator sentiment, and a 10-year forecast for business aviation, RVantage introduces a reimagined approach to forward looking intelligence powered by proprietary surveys and in-depth interviews with business aircraft owners, operators and key industry stakeholders.

“In today's environment of heightened uncertainty, understanding customer sentiment and anticipating behaviour has never been more critical,” states Rollie Vincent, president of RVA. “With RVantage, we combine statistically rigorous sampling with advanced analytics to deliver clear, actionable intelligence for business aviation decision-makers.”

RVantage launches with strong early engagement and global participation, underscoring immediate demand for high quality intelligence across the business aviation community. “Our clients seek more than data alone,” said Vincent. “They value the rigour behind our insights and rely on our independent perspectives when making high-stakes strategic decisions.”

Quarterly surveys of business aircraft owners, operators and industry stakeholders will begin in Q2 2026, with a global rollout in April in English, Spanish and Portuguese.

In parallel, RVA has announced the launch of its new thought leadership conference series, designed to convene industry titans for meaningful dialogue on the future of business aviation while reflecting on the industry's evolution, assessing current realities and highlighting areas of strength while uncovering opportunities for continued growth.

The inaugural RVA Summit '27 will take place 15-16 February, 2027, at the historic Mayflower Hotel in Washington, DC, aligning with the GAMA annual State of the Industry Press Conference. The venue carries a rich legacy in aviation history. In 1927, Charles Lindbergh was honoured there with the Hubbard Medal by President Calvin Coolidge following his groundbreaking nonstop flight from New York to Paris, an achievement that captured global attention and redefined what was possible in long range aviation. With its deep ties to the industry, the historic Mayflower Hotel provides a fitting setting to launch this conference series as the industry reflects on where business aviation has been and looks ahead to where it is going.

Together, the launch of RVantage and RVA Summit '27 reflects RVA's continued commitment to delivering trusted, independent, data-driven intelligence while creating a platform for meaningful dialogue that will help shape the future of business aviation.
