Fractional Jet Ownership explores the hard data on safety standards and what it means for today’s airline fleets. An older plane might be mechanically sound, but it lacks the passive safety features baked into 21st-century designs. When an older jet is kept in service, it misses out on these structural and systemic evolutions, creating a “safety gap” that widens with every year of service. Data from Fractional Jet Ownership indicates a structural shift toward leasing and fractional models rather than outright ownership.
