The Problem with Private Aircraft


Private flights are more than a luxury. For people who fly regularly, efficiency is key. Private planes offer a better way to travel, ditching some of the headaches of commercial flights. However, private aircraft aren't without their issues.

Here are a few problems that currently plague the world of private aviation.

Supply Issues

Believe it or not, private aviation is navigating a serious supply chain issue! Many private air companies have trouble getting basic components for regular maintenance and repairs. For example, some plane owners report issues getting something as simple as tires for the landing gear.

The issues with the private supply chain are not only frustrating, but they're expensive. Without access to crucial parts for maintenance, these aircraft can't get off the ground. Owners and operators have no choice but to keep planes grounded. That results in lost revenue and exacerbates the next problem with private aviation.

Ever-Growing Demand

The demand for private aircraft is higher than ever. People are looking for both traditional airplanes and newer personal VTOL aircraft. Travelers want to get away from commercial aviation, resulting in high demand for full ownership, fractional programs, private aviation memberships and more.

Unfortunately, operators can't keep up. There's only so much an operator can do to expand their fleet. Pair that with the growing supply chain issues, creating an endless cycle of headaches for the industry. We're seeing popular operators having to stop selling memberships or place temporary moratoriums on new members to focus on the customers they already have.

Outdated Aircraft

Finally, private aircraft are becoming more outdated with every passing year. While newer planes are full of advanced technology, these aircraft still work the same way. More recent personal VTOL aircraft aim to change that.

VTOL aircraft are much more efficient than the conventional jet-turbine plane. They don't require runways, improving accessibility to remote landing sites and city centers. They also run on hybrid propulsion systems, dramatically reducing emissions.

Adoption for VTOL is slow, but many innovators in aerospace are creating personal aircraft that will address many of the issues plaguing this industry today.
