IADA Q3 2025: Bonus depreciation lifts dealer confidence, tightens used-aircraft supply

IADA's third-quarter report says bonus depreciation has driven a notable upswing in dealer sentiment while historically low inventories are tightening the used‑aircraft market. The combined effect has raised dealer confidence and narrowed available secondary‑market supply, according to the association's Q3 analysis.

Briefing

What Hype is tracking

  • IADA's Q3 finds bonus depreciation is materially improving dealer sentiment, increasing transaction activity and influencing capital deployment decisions in the secondary market.
  • Persistently low used‑aircraft inventories are tightening supply in the secondary market, affecting fleet renewal timing, remarketing strategies and access to replacement aircraft for operators and lessors.
  • This shift comes against a backdrop of stronger aftermarket and delivery momentum, including GE Aerospace's guidance lift after record CFM LEAP deliveries, which informs capacity and MRO planning across the industry.
