Conserve cash, increase liquidity for needs that are not easily financed, with no loans on a balance sheet. Banks are more likely to provide flight schools capital to finance operating needs of students, facilities and marketing, rather than aircraft.

Yes. 100 percent of aircraft lease payments are deductible.
At some point the market reverts to the mean. Aircraft leasing protects flight schools from depreciation losses if the market reverses.
For schools looking to rotate aircraft every three to five years, there’s never a down payment or large deposit to WingsLeasing. That means no enormous payment for refreshed aircraft.
Aircraft leasing enables universities a guaranteed way to hit operating margins without competing for capital-raising dollars. Capital is available to the school at any time, without waiting in line for a foundation to put that project on the list.
