Britten Norman Laucnhes OEM Backed Aircraft Brokerage and Trade in Service

#Bembridge, #Isle of #Wight,, October 27th, 2025

#Britten #Norman, the #British #aircraft manufacturer behind the iconic #Islander, has launched a new #Aircraft #Brokerage and Trade In Service, providing operators with full lifecycle support for their fleets. The programme enables operators to transition from existing aircraft to new Islanders with Britten Norman managing the sale, trade in, or refurbishment, ensuring continuous operational capability.

 he service is already being put into action: Britten Norman is offering two BN2A 21 Islanders on behalf of Luxembourg based operator CAE Aviation. Operated by CAE for more than a decade, the aircraft are currently configured for surveillance missions but can be reconfigured to 10 seat commuter or cargo operations, offering potential buyers flexibility in how they use the aircraft.

The programme enables operators to transition from existing aircraft to new Islanders with Britten Norman managing the sale, trade in, or refurbishment, ensuring continuous operational capability. The service draws on Britten Norman’s technical expertise and access to OEM records. Its sales team supports operators with import/export processes and connects aircraft with buyers worldwide. Aircraft can also remain in service until new deliveries are ready, helping operators avoid gaps in operational capability. 

As Britten Norman increases production of new Islanders on its expanded UK production line, operators looking to modernise their fleets can take delivery of new aircraft while Britten Norman manages the sale or trade in of existing ones. This ensures a seamless, OEM managed transition from old to new, with every step from remarketing or refurbishment of legacy aircraft to delivery of factory built Islanders, handled end to end by the OEM.

“Operators want a straightforward way to refresh their fleets with minimal disruption”, said Charlotte Britton, Head of Sales at Britten Norman. “Our brokerage and trade in service ensures customers can advance to the next generation of Islanders while keeping existing aircraft in service until the new ones are ready, making the process efficient and fully managed by Britten Norman.”

Britten Norman’s Brokerage and Trade In Service is available to Islander operators worldwide, providing a clear route to fleet renewal and access to both new and pre owned aircraft. Interested parties can contact the Britten Norman Sales team for more information.
