Aircraft Leasing
Aircraft Leasing
We keep our lease terms simple and straightforward. Here’s what you can expect when leasing from Thoroughbred Helicopter Sales & Leasing:
- You’ll receive a copy of our lease. After reviewing it, you’ll sign and return it to us.
- You’ll send us your lease deposit, which varies based on the aircraft model leased.
- You will then be required to obtain Hull and Liability insurance in the amount listed for the aircraft you are leasing. Thoroughbred Helicopter Sales & Leasing is to be listed as name-insured; please note that off-shore insurance companies are not allowed. After obtaining your insurance, you’ll need to send Thoroughbred Helicopter Sales & Leasing a copy of the insurance documentation.
- It will then be time to schedule your pickup of the aircraft from its current location.
- An aircraft usage report will need to be sent to Thoroughbred Helicopter Sales & Leasing at the beginning of each month. The monthly lease payment is due by the 10th of each month.
- You are required under the lease to maintain the aircraft in an airworthy condition, including 50-hour and 100-hour inspections.
- At the end of the lease, you must return the aircraft to the location where you picked it up.
- At that time, our mechanics will perform a 100-hour inspection, the cost of which, along with any necessary repairs, will be deducted from your lease deposit.
- The remaining deposit will be returned to you.
