Operating model

Who does what in a dry lease.

StructIQ does not operate aircraft and does not hold an Air Operator Certificate. Aircraft are provided by owners and lessors, and operated by airlines and AOC holders under their own regulatory approvals.

Aircraft dry lease

Aircraft capacity for established operators.

StructIQ works with airlines and aviation operators seeking additional aircraft capacity through dry-lease arrangements.

We assist AOC-holding operators in identifying suitable aircraft and coordinating the commercial and technical process between airlines, aircraft owners, lessors, technical representatives and other relevant parties.

A dry lease generally provides the aircraft without crew, with operational responsibilities managed by the lessee/operator in accordance with the applicable regulatory framework and approvals.

We support dry-lease requirements for

  • Fleet expansion
  • Replacement aircraft
  • New route development
  • Capacity growth
  • Fleet modernisation
  • Seasonal planning
  • Aircraft transition
  • Medium- and long-term fleet requirements

Who we work with

Demand side, supply side and the specialists in between.

Airlines & AOC Holders

StructIQ supports established airlines and appropriately certificated operators seeking aircraft to complement or expand their fleets.

Aircraft Owners & Lessors

We work to identify aircraft owners, lessors and supply-side aviation partners with aircraft potentially suitable for qualified operator requirements.

Technical & Aviation Partners

Where required, relevant technical, inspection, maintenance, legal, insurance, regulatory and aviation specialists may participate in the transaction process.

Process

How a dry-lease requirement works.

Seven coordinated stages, from operator requirement through to entry into service. Regulatory approvals sit with the operator and the applicable authorities throughout.

  1. 01

    Stage

    Operator Requirement

    The airline / AOC holder provides its aircraft requirement.

    • Preferred aircraft type
    • Configuration
    • Passenger capacity
    • Aircraft age preference
    • Engine type
    • Required delivery date
    • Lease duration
    • Operating geography
    • Expected utilisation
    • Maintenance requirements
    • Commercial expectations

  2. 02

    Stage

    Operator Qualification

    Relevant operator information required by aircraft owners or lessors is collected and held internally.

    • Company information
    • AOC information
    • Operating history
    • Existing fleet
    • Intended aircraft operation
    • Financial information where requested
    • Regulatory jurisdiction
    • Proposed lease duration
    • Supporting corporate documents

    Confidential documentation is never published or publicly exposed.

  3. 03

    Stage

    Aircraft Sourcing

    StructIQ identifies potentially suitable aircraft from relevant owners, lessors, operators and aviation counterparties.

  4. 04

    Stage

    Preliminary Matching

    Available aircraft are compared against the operator requirement.

    • Aircraft type
    • Configuration
    • Age
    • Engine
    • Maintenance status
    • Delivery timing
    • Location
    • Lease term
    • Commercial expectations
    • Operator requirements

  5. 05

    Stage

    Commercial & Technical Evaluation

    StructIQ coordinates the exchange and review of relevant commercial and technical information between the parties.

    • Aircraft specifications
    • Maintenance status
    • Technical records
    • Delivery conditions
    • Security deposit
    • Maintenance reserves
    • Lease rate
    • Lease term
    • Return conditions
    • Required inspections
    • Insurance requirements
    • Other transaction conditions

    StructIQ does not independently certify airworthiness. Airworthiness determinations rest with the responsible approved organisations and authorities.

  6. 06

    Stage

    Lease & Regulatory Coordination

    StructIQ supports coordination between the relevant parties as the transaction progresses.

    • Lease documentation
    • Aircraft inspection
    • Regulatory review
    • Aircraft acceptance
    • Registration requirements
    • Insurance
    • Delivery
    • Entry into service

    All required regulatory approvals remain subject to the relevant aviation authorities and responsible parties.

  7. 07

    Stage

    Aircraft Delivery

    StructIQ coordinates relevant stakeholders through aircraft delivery and transition to the operator.

Marketplace position

StructIQ is the coordination layer.

Aircraft supply and aircraft demand rarely speak the same commercial and technical language. StructIQ sits between them and moves the transaction forward.
