LINCOLN, Neb., July 6, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — The newest Sandhills Global aviation market reports show continued year-over-year inventory decreases across several used aircraft categories in June. The market reports cover pre-owned jet aircraft, single-engine piston aircraft, turboprop aircraft, and Robinson piston helicopters on Controller.com and other Sandhills platforms worldwide.

“Aircraft inventory remains tight across much of the market, particularly among jets and turboprops, where inventory levels are still trending lower compared to last year,” says Controller Sales Manager Terrin Mohl. “Used turboprops have seen sustained declines for over six months, while piston-single aircraft inventory has remained relatively stable.”

Sandhills’ aviation products include Controller, Controller EMEA, Executive Controller, Charter Hub, Aviation Trader, Aircraft Cost Calculator, and AircraftValuation. AircraftValuation is Sandhills’ proprietary asset valuation tool for all types of aircraft, built using the same technology behind Value Insight Portal (VIP and VIP+). Widely used and trusted across equipment, truck, and trailer industries, VIP identifies asset values with unparalleled accuracy.

The key metric in all of Sandhills’ market reports is the Sandhills Equipment Value Index (EVI). Buyers and sellers can use the information in the Sandhills EVI to monitor equipment markets and maximize returns on acquisition, liquidation, and related business decisions. The Sandhills EVI data include equipment available in auction and retail markets, as well as model-year equipment actively in use.
