An aircraft sight inspection appraisal involves a physical inspection of the aircraft by a qualified appraiser. The appraiser examines the aircraft’s exterior and interior condition, including its airframe, engines, avionics, and other components. This type of appraisal allows for a more thorough assessment of the aircraft’s condition, identifying any issues or discrepancies that may affect its value. Site inspection appraisals often provide a more accurate valuation, especially for unique or specialized aircraft where market comparables may be limited. However, site inspection appraisals are typically more time-consuming and costly compared to desktop appraisals due to the need for on-site inspection and detailed examination.
In summary, while both methods aim to determine the value of an aircraft, a desktop appraisal relies on remote analysis of available data, while an aircraft site inspection appraisal involves a physical inspection of the aircraft for a more detailed assessment.
