The Canadian aircraft market this week
How many aircraft are registered in Canada, what's changed hands lately, what's for sale here, and what sellers across the country are asking. Updated every day.
313 aircraft were registered or re-registered in the 30 days to September 29, 2026. Most of those are aircraft changing hands rather than new arrivals.
From ads we've seen across Canada, here and elsewhere, in Canadian dollars. We show the middle half of the range, so one hopeful price doesn't skew it. These are asking prices, not what the aircraft sold for.
