TORONTO, Canada, July 16, 2025 – Aero Asset, a global helicopter sales and market intelligence firm, released its 2025 Half Year Heli Market Trends Single-Engine Edition. Backed by Aero Asset’s expertise and proprietary market insight, the report delivers a detailed analysis of the global preowned single-engine helicopter market in the first half of 2025.
The report reveals that retail sales volume dropped 19% year-over-year (YOY) to a four-year low, while median transaction prices rose 19%. Supply for sale continued to climb, up 9% YOY and absorption rate reached a four-year peak Q2 2025.
“We’re seeing a combination of declining sales volume and prices soaring,” said Valerie Pereira, Aero Asset’s Vice President of Market Research. “Despite this market disparity, buyers continue to pursue mission-specific configurations. Notably, demand in the EMS segment grew in the first half of the year, signaling its continued resilience.”
Leveraging transactional data, fleet analysis, and proprietary market tracking tools, Aero Asset’s half year 2025 report provides a detailed view of global sales & supply dynamics, absorption rates, pricing, and liquidity across the single-engine segment. Below highlights reflect key performance indicators shaping the preowned market in the first half of the year:
Pricing Trends:
Pricing continued to climb in the first half of 2025, with median transaction prices rising 19% year-over-year. Utility-configured aircraft were a major contributor to the pricing momentum, with a 31% increase in transaction value YOY. On average, aircraft sold 13% below asking price, reflecting that asking prices remain high and buyers value-conscious.
Regional Performance:
The North American market led global activity, accounting for two-thirds of all transactions in the first half of 2025. Despite a 25% YOY decrease in transaction volume, European sales rebounded to second place overall. Sales in Asia Pacific and Latin America dropped sharply, down 43% and 60% respectively in S1 2025.
Liquidity Rankings:
Airbus AS350 B3/B3e/H125 and Bell 407/GX/P/I remained the most liquid markets. In contrast, the Leonardo A119K/Ke/Kx reached a four-year performance low with an absorption rate of 2.4 years.
