New aircraft leasing company specializes in flight schools

FlytFinance, a Phoenix-based aircraft leasing company, has launched a new aircraft leasing program for Part 61 and Part 141 flight schools.

Officials with the new company have purchased a fleet of 2022 and 2023 Cessna 172 Skyhawks, Piper Archer TXs, and Piper Seminoles. They note they are “focused on supporting flight school fleet development around the country.”

“We are transportation finance people, as well as aircraft owners and pilots, and we recognized a tremendous need for accessible and affordable fleet-build opportunities for flight schools,” says Craig Berry, co-founder of FlytFinance. “This is an unprecedented time in GA flight training, and we are excited to partner with flight schools and aviation degree programs to ensure they have the modern aircraft they need to support their flight training.”

FlytFinance offers five-year leases with purchase options, as well as flat monthly lease rates with no minimum flight hour requirements. Company officials add they also encourage flight school custom branding on their aircraft, and will reserve aircraft a year in advance to help flight schools with their fleet planning.

The company is accepting reservations now for aircraft that are scheduled for factory delivery throughout 2022.

I would also like more information for our flight school. We’re looking for 2 Seminoles and 2 to 3 CE-172s. Glass is great, but we can work with either.

Please Call me ASAP 9044819300 We are one of the leading international flight schools. We are looking to replace our entire fleet asap. We have been here for 18 years and will have 200-300 students full-time by the end of 2022.
