Why OakTree Aviation
Every appraisal we deliver is based on an on-site inspection — never a desktop estimate. We examine the aircraft in person, review the logbooks, assess the avionics and equipment, and document the condition before forming any value opinion. The result is a defensible, USPAP-compliant report that holds up to lender, legal, and IRS scrutiny.
On-Site Every Time
We travel to the aircraft. No desktop appraisals, no assumptions about condition. Every assignment includes a physical inspection by a certified appraiser.
USPAP & PAAO Compliant
All appraisals are developed in accordance with USPAP standards and PAAO analytical methodology — the recognized framework for defensible aircraft valuations.
30+ Years of Aviation Experience
Rick Rossner brings decades of hands-on aviation experience to every assignment — as a pilot, aviation professional, and Senior Certified Aircraft Appraiser.
