MONTREAL (Reuters) – The market for higher-end, pre-owned business jets is beginning to favor sellers, after years where buyers had the upper hand because of elevated supply, Bombardier Inc’s <BBDb.TO> chief financial officer said on Thursday.

“You’re starting to see that turn into being a bit of a sellers’ market on the used side, for good aircraft anyway,” CFO John Di Bert told the Barclays industrial conference in Miami.

“That absorbs a lot of demand that was out there.”

Canada’s Bombardier, one of the world’s largest makers of business jets, in addition to commercial planes and trains, previously had $500 million in used aircraft inventory but is now “fully sold out,” Di Bert said.
