Who this is for

Investors and analysts who hold aviation names and want the filing read properly. Aviation professionals — operators, planners, and commercial teams — who want the market view on their own industry. Anyone who finds generic market commentary too shallow on aviation and trade press too light on the numbers.

What we are not: a stock-picking service, a tip sheet, or a source of price targets. We explain what a filing says and what it signals. What you do with that is your call.

What we publish

Everything is published as text on this site and as audio in the podcast feed. Read it or listen to it — same analysis either way.

How it is made

JetExpat is an AI-generated publication. Filings are pulled from SEC EDGAR, market data and TSA throughput are collected automatically, and scripts are drafted by a large language model, fact-checked against the source data, and reviewed by a human before anything is published.

We think that is a reasonable way to cover 30 companies at filing speed, and we would rather tell you plainly than let you assume otherwise. The full methodology sets out every step, including what the fact-check actually verifies and what it cannot catch.

The voices

Sarah

Synthetic host — AI voice

Sarah frames each episode and drives the questions. She is a text-to-speech voice, not a person, and does not hold or trade any position in the companies discussed.

Mike

Synthetic host — AI voice

Mike carries the analysis and the industry context. He is also a text-to-speech voice, not a person. Neither host is a registered analyst or investment adviser.

The dialogue format exists because two voices make dense financial material easier to follow, not to imply a newsroom. Editorial responsibility sits with JetExpat LLC.
