Figures are normalised into comparable units so models can be judged side by side rather than through manufacturer brochures. They are indicative and must be verified against approved documentation and the specific airframe before any purchase decision.

Ultralight and microlight aircraft

9 models. Modern two-seat ultralights offer remarkable speed and efficiency at the lowest ownership cost in aviation. They suit pilots flying alone or in pairs from short strips, and they are the least expensive way to fly often.

Single-engine piston aircraft

131 models. Four and five-seat piston singles are the core of European private flying: capable touring machines with the widest choice of models, maintenance shops and resale buyers.

Twin-engine turboprops

70 models. Twin turboprops combine large cabins, real payload and twin-turbine redundancy. Most owners operate them with professional crew and management support.

Light business jets

161 models. Entry-level jets deliver 400-knot travel and airline altitudes. Ownership economics resemble running a small business: type ratings, programs, hangarage and professional maintenance.

Private helicopters

103 models. Helicopters trade range and speed for point-to-point access no aeroplane can match. Component-life-driven maintenance dominates the economics and needs careful budgeting.
