John Hopkinson & Associates Ltd. have been specializing in past, present and forecast values of all types of aircraft and aviation related equipment for many years. We count among our clients many of the major lenders and financial institutions in Canada. We focus on fixed as well as rotary wing aircraft, and specialize in corporate, turbine, and commuter equipment. It is a mandatory part of our appraisals that they must include a technical evaluation and record search performed by a competent, independent engineer properly endorsed on the type of equipment. A professionally prepared inspection report is an integral part of this service. Pricing comparisons from the major trade sources, through the use of our Research Department, are used for these discussions, and forecast economic trends are considered as a factor in our opinions.
