Referencing the chart below, Washburn says the number of mid-size jets for sale on Controller.com most recently peaked toward 2020’s tail end before beginning a downward trend and bottoming out in 2022. Since then, the number of mid-size jets on Controller.com has been trending upward.

“The biggest growth in mid-sized jet inventory on Controller.com took place in the early part of 2023, with growth rates more than doubling from the year prior,” Washburn says. “Today, the growth rate YOY for mid-size jets is around 25%.” Price declines seen in this segment in 2024 have continued into 2025.
