Aviation disputes, resolved at aviation speed
AVS Moot was founded on a contradiction everyone in the industry knows: aviation moves on hours, but aviation disputes move on years. The standard litigation track averages 18 months; aircraft sit, leases calcify, and claims age past their usefulness. Our chamber was built to close that gap — specialist arbitration and mediation for the aviation industry, delivering binding awards in a median of 11 weeks.
The speed comes from specialization. Our panel of 47 adjudicators is drawn from former regulators, airline general counsel, lessor claim executives, and ICAO-trained arbitrators — people who read a wet-lease agreement the way litigators read a complaint. No time is lost teaching the panel what a maintenance reserve is.
What we hear
- Lease and finance disputes: redelivery conditions, maintenance reserves, and end-of-term controversies.
- MRO and supplier claims: turnaround-time failures, parts documentation, and warranty conflicts.
- Insurance and liability matters referred by insurers and claims managers who need a technical panel.
Our rules are engineered for the industry: evidence windows capped at 14 days, emergency arbitrator availability within 48 hours, and hearings scheduled around fleet realities — not court calendars. Since founding, the chamber has resolved 1,000+ matters across seats in Singapore, Riyadh, and our European registry, with zero unbilled hours on 78% of cases because our fee model is fixed at commencement.
Why parties choose a specialist chamber
Generalist arbitration works, until the technical record does not. Our parties report the difference: awards that engage with the engineering evidence, and process costs that stay proportional to the claim. AVS Moot is the aviation arbitration and mediation chamber for airlines, MROs, lessors, and insurers — the industry's disputes, heard by the industry's own adjudicators, at the speed aviation actually operates.
