Depreciation curve by year of manufacture
CAGR +2.6%/yr·1973→1985
Market median by vintage (USD). Light-blue band = min/max range observed across real listings. Points without reliable public listings (n ≤ 1) use Bluebook/curve interpolation and are flagged as lower confidence.
6 of 6 points with reduced confidence (n ≤ 1 listing observed). The estimate for these years comes from Aircraft Bluebook / market-curve interpolation, not from direct listings.
Landed in Brazil

Index ≈ ×1.32 to ×1.66 on the aircraft value, already with ferry, ANAC nationalization, IPI and ICMS.

Through a qualified importer
US$ 397.2K – 1.0M
R$ 2.2M – 5.7M · Agreement 75/91 · IPI + ICMS ~7 to 12%
Direct import
US$ 448.5K – 1.2M
R$ 2.5M – 6.5M · IPI + full ICMS ~25 to 32%
