Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | (a) The Company and Basis of Presentation AeroCentury Corp. (“AeroCentury”) is a Delaware corporation incorporated in 1997. AeroCentury together with its consolidated subsidiaries is referred to as the “Company.” In August 2016, AeroCentury formed two wholly-owned subsidiaries, ACY 19002 Limited (“ACY 19002”) and ACY 19003 Limited (“ACY 19003”) for the purpose of acquiring aircraft using a combination of cash and third-party financing (“UK LLC SPE Financing” or “special purpose financing”) separate from AeroCentury’s credit facility (the “Credit Facility”). The UK LLC SPE Financing was repaid in full in February 2019 as part of a refinancing involving new non-recourse term loans totaling approximately $44.3 million (“Term Loans”) made to ACY 19002, ACY 19003, and two other newly formed special purpose subsidiaries of AeroCentury. See Note 4(b) for more information about the Term Loans. On October 1, 2018, AeroCentury acquired JetFleet Holding Corp. (“JHC”) in a reverse triangular merger (“Merger”) for consideration of approximately $2.9 million in cash and 129,217 shares of common stock of AeroCentury, as determined pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) entered into by AeroCentury, JHC and certain other parties in October 2017. JHC is the parent company of JetFleet Management Corp. (“JMC”), which is an integrated aircraft management, marketing and financing business and the manager of the Company’s assets. Upon completion of the Merger, JHC became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, and as a result, JHC's results are included in the Company's consolidated financial statements beginning on October 1, 2018. In November 2018, AeroCentury formed two wholly-owned subsidiaries, ACY SN 15129 LLC (“ACY 15129”) and ACY E-175 LLC (“ACY E-175”), for the purpose of refinancing four of the Company’s aircraft using the Term Loans. Because the Term Loans did not close until February 2019, the subject aircraft remained as collateral under the Credit Facility as of December 31, 2018, and ACY 15129 and ACY E-175 had no activity in 2018. Financial information for AeroCentury and its consolidated subsidiaries is presented on a consolidated basis in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information, the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three- month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2019 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2019 or for any other period. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. (b) Use of Estimates The Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable for making judgments that are not readily apparent from other sources. The most significant estimates with regard to these condensed consolidated financial statements are the residual values and useful lives of the Company’s long-lived assets, the amount and timing of future cash flows associated with each asset that are used to evaluate whether assets are impaired, accrued maintenance costs, accounting for income taxes, the assumptions used to value the Company’s derivative instruments, the valuation of the right of use asset and related lease liability associated with the Company’s office, and the amounts recorded as allowances for doubtful accounts. (c) Comprehensive Income The Company reflects changes in the fair value of its interest rate swap derivatives that are designated as hedges in other comprehensive income. Such amounts are reclassified into earnings in the periods in which the hedged transaction occurs, and are included in interest expense. (d) Finance Leases As of June 30, 2019, the Company had four aircraft subject to sales-type finance leases and three aircraft subject to direct financing leases. All seven leases contain lessee bargain purchase options at prices substantially below the subject asset’s estimated residual value at the exercise date for the option. Consequently, the Company has classified each of these seven leases as finance leases for financial accounting purposes. For such finance leases, the Company reports the discounted present value of (i) future minimum lease payments (including the bargain purchase option) and (ii) any residual value not subject to a bargain purchase option, as a finance lease receivable on its balance sheet, and accrues interest on the balance of the finance lease receivable based on the interest rate inherent in the applicable lease over the term of the lease. For each of the four sales-type finance leases, the Company recognized as a gain or loss the amount equal to (i) the net investment in the sales-type finance lease plus any initial direct costs and lease incentives less (ii) the net book value of the subject aircraft at inception of the applicable lease. The Company recognized interest earned on finance leases in the amount of $260,100 and $361,300 in the quarters ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively and $496,200 and $740,400 in the six-month periods ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. (e) Interest Rate Hedging During the first quarter of 2019, the Company entered into certain derivative instruments to mitigate its exposure to variable interest rates under the Term Loans debt and a portion of the Credit Facility debt. Hedge accounting is applied to such a transaction only if specific criteria have been met, the transaction is deemed to be “highly effective” and the transaction has been designated as a hedge at its inception. Under hedge accounting treatment, generally, the effects of derivative transactions are recorded in earnings for the period in which the hedge transaction affects earnings. A change in value of a hedging instrument is reported as a component of other comprehensive income and is reclassified into earnings in the period in which the transaction being hedged affects earnings. (f) Recent Accounting Pronouncements Topic 842 In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-02, Leases (“ ”) The new standard requires a lessor to classify leases as sales-type, finance, or operating. A lease is treated as sales-type if it transfers all of the risks and rewards, as well as control of the underlying asset, to the lessee. If risks and rewards are conveyed without the transfer of control, the lease is treated as a finance lease. If the lessor does not convey risks and rewards or control, an operating lease results. As a result of application of the practical expedients, the Company was not required to alter the classification or carrying value of its leased or finance lease assets. Lessee reporting was changed by the new standard, requiring that the balance sheet reflect a liability for most operating lease obligations as well as a “right of use” asset. As such, the Company was required to record a lease obligation of approximately $600,000 in connection with the lease of its headquarters office, and to increase the capitalized leasehold interest / right of use asset by a similar amount upon adoption, as discussed in Note 6. There was no effect on retained earnings recorded as a result of adoption of the standard. The Company did not elect the lessee practical expedient to combine the lease and non-lease components.

Aircraft Lease Assets [Abstract] | |
Aircraft Lease Assets | As discussed in Note 1, the Company adopted Topic 842 on January 1, 2019, and elected to use certain practical expedients that resulted in continuing the classification of capitalized indirect cost associated with its operating and finance leases. As such, there was no adjustment to its accounts related to the carrying value of its sales-type and finance leases, assets held for lease or capitalized initial direct costs, and its leases continue to be accounted for the same as they had been before adoption of the new accounting standard. The Company’s leases are normally “triple net leases” under which the lessee is obligated to bear all costs, including tax, maintenance and insurance, on the leased assets during the term of the lease. In most cases, the lessee is obligated to provide a security deposit or letter of credit to secure its performance obligations under the lease, and in some cases is required to pay maintenance reserves based on utilization of the aircraft, which reserves are available for qualified maintenance costs during the lease term and may or may not be refundable at the end of the lease. Typically, the leases also contain minimum return conditions, as well as an economic adjustment payable by the lessee (and in some instances by the lessor) for amounts by which the various aircraft or engine components are worse or better than a targeted condition set forth in the lease. Some leases contain renewal or purchase options, although the Company’s sales-type and finance leases all contain a bargain purchase option at lease end which the Company expects the lessees to exercise. Because all of the Company’s leases transfer use and possession of the asset to the lessee and contain no other substantial undertakings by the Company, the Company has concluded that all of its lease contracts qualify for lease accounting under Topic 842. Certain lessee payments of what would otherwise be lessor costs (such as insurance and property taxes) are excluded from both revenue and expense. The Company evaluates the expected return on its leased assets by considering both the rents receivable over the lease term, any expected additional consideration at lease end, and the residual value of the asset at the end of the lease. In some cases, the Company depreciates the asset to the expected residual value because it expects to sell the asset at lease end; in other cases, it may expect to re-lease the asset to the same or another lessee and the depreciation term and related residual value will differ from the initial lease term and residual value. Residual value is estimated by considering future estimates provided by independent appraisers, although it may be adjusted by the Company based on expected return conditions or location, specific lessee considerations, or other market information. Two of the Company’s operating lease assets are subject to manufacturer residual value guarantees at the end of their lease terms in the fourth quarter of 2020 and totaling approximately $20 million. Three additional aircraft are subject to residual value guarantees, but the Company expects to retain the aircraft after the date of such guarantees and re-lease them to the current or other lessees. The Company considers the best market for managing and/or selling its assets at the end of its leases, although it does not expect to retain ownership of the assets under finance leases given the lessees’ bargain purchase options. (a) Assets Held for Lease At June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company’s aircraft and aircraft engines held for lease consisted of the following: June 30, 2019 December 31, 2018 Type Number Owned % of net book value Number owned % of net book value Regional jet aircraft 13 86 % 13 81 % Turboprop aircraft 2 14 % 4 18 % Engines - - % 1 1 % The Company did not purchase or sell any aircraft held for lease during the second quarter of 2019. None of the Company’s aircraft and engines held for lease were off lease at June 30, 2019. As discussed below, the Company has three off-lease aircraft that were reclassified in 2018 as held for sale and an engine that was reclassified in the first quarter of 2019 as held for sale. As of June 30, 2019, minimum future lease revenue payments receivable under non-cancelable operating leases were as follows: Years ending December 31 Remainder of 2019 $ 13,717,000 2020 25,749,600 2021 18,648,200 2022 16,690,600 2023 13,007,800 Thereafter 21,589,500 $ 109,402,700 The remaining, weighted average lease term of the Company’s assets under operating leases was 55 months and 58 months at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. (b) Sales-Type and Finance Leases As a result of a lease amendment containing a purchase option at lease end, during the second quarter of 2019, the Company reclassified an asset that was previously held for lease to a sales-type finance lease receivable and recorded a loss of $170,600. During the second quarter of 2019, the Company also amended the sales-type leases for two aircraft to accommodate the lessee’s request to transfer a portion of future lease payment obligations from one of the leases to the other, as well as to assign one of the leases and related aircraft to a different lessee. Payments for both leases were also amended to reflect a higher implicit interest rate, such that the fair value of the leases after amendment equaled the carrying value of the leases before the amendment. No gain or loss was recognized as a result of these lease modifications. At June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the net investment included in sales-type finance leases and direct financing leases receivable were as follows: June 30, 2019 December 31, 2018 Gross minimum lease payments receivable $ 18,153,300 $ 17,107,100 Less unearned interest (1,564,100 ) (1,856,200 ) Finance leases receivable $ 16,589,200 $ 15,250,900 As of June 30, 2019, minimum future payments receivable under finance leases were as follows: Years ending December 31 Remainder of 2019 $ 6,146,600 2020 4,708,200 2021 5,085,400 2022 2,213,100 $ 18,153,300 The remaining, weighted average lease term of the Company’s assets under sales-type and finance leases was 23 months and 32 months at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. |

Property, Plant and Equipment Assets Held-for-sale Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Assets Held for Sale | During the second quarter of 2019, based on its appraised value, the Company recorded an impairment provision of $160,000 for one turboprop aircraft. Assets held for sale at June 30, 2019 included two turboprop aircraft and a spare engine, as well as a turboprop aircraft for which a short-term operating lease was entered into during the first quarter and airframe parts from two turboprop aircraft. During the second quarter of 2019, the Company received $252,700 in cash and accrued $142,200 in receivables for parts sales. These amounts were accounted for as follows: $94,400 reduced accounts receivable for parts sales accrued in the first quarter of 2019; $292,200 reduced the carrying value of the parts; and $8,300 was recorded as gains in excess of the carrying value of the parts. During the second quarter of 2018, the Company received $73,400 in cash and accrued $41,000 in receivables for parts sales. These amounts were accounted for as follows: $10,600 reduced accounts receivable for parts sales accrued in the first quarter of 2018, $85,700 reduced the carrying value of the parts, and $18,100 was recorded as gains in excess of the carrying value of the parts. |

Notes Payable [Abstract] | |
Notes Payable and Accrued Interest | At June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company’s notes payable and accrued interest consisted of the following: June 30, 2019 December 31, 2018 Credit Facility: Principal $ 87,400,000 $ 122,400,000 Unamortized debt issuance costs (3,849,900 ) (674,300 ) Accrued interest 164,500 139,300 Special purpose financing: Principal: UK SPE Financing - 9,211,200 Term Loans 40,776,400 - Unamortized debt issuance costs (1,186,600 ) - Accrued interest 112,400 16,000 $ 123,416,800 $ 131,092,200 (a) Credit Facility Before modification, the Company’s Credit Facility was provided by a syndicate of banks and was secured by all of the assets of the Company except for the two aircraft in the UK LLC SPE Financing. In February 2019, the Company entered into a Third Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement to the Credit Facility (the “Restated Loan Agreement”) which, among other things, extended the maturity date of the Credit Facility with the lenders thereunder from May 31, 2019 to February 19, 2023; decreased the maximum availability thereunder from $170 million (with the ability for the Company to request an increase up to $180 million) to $145 million (with the ability for the Company to request an increase to up to $160 million); and modified certain of the Company’s financial ratio covenants. Borrowings under the Credit Facility will continue to bear interest at floating rates that reset periodically to a market benchmark rate plus a credit margin, and the Company will also continue to be obligated to pay a quarterly fee on any unused portion of the Credit Facility at a rate of 0.50%. The Credit Facility required that within 30 days after closing of the financing, the Company enter into an interest rate protection derivative instrument with respect to a minimum of $50 million of the outstanding loan balance at closing. Accordingly, in March 2019, the Company entered into interest rate protection instruments with respect to $50 million of its Credit Facility debt. The borrowings under the Restated Loan Agreement are secured by a first priority lien on all of the Company's assets, including the Company’s aircraft portfolio, except those aircraft that are subject to the Term Loans. The Restated Loan Agreement requires the Company to comply with certain covenants relating to payment of taxes, preservation of existence, maintenance of property and insurance, and periodic financial reporting, as well as compliance with several financial ratio covenants. The Restated Loan Agreement restricts the Company with respect to certain corporate level transactions and transactions with affiliates or subsidiaries without consent of the lenders. Events of default under the Restated Loan Agreement include failure to make a required payment within three business days of a due date or to comply with other obligations (subject to specified cure periods for certain events of default), a default under other indebtedness of the Company, and a change in control of the Company. Remedies for default include acceleration of the outstanding debt and exercise of any remedies available under applicable law, including foreclosure on the collateral securing the borrowings under the Credit Facility. As of December 31, 2018, the Company was not in compliance with the interest coverage, debt service coverage, no-net-loss and revenue concentration covenants under the Credit Facility. The noncompliance resulted primarily from the Company recording aircraft impairment charges and losses on sale of aircraft totaling $3,408,700 during 2018. The amendments included in the Restated Loan Agreement in February 2019 discussed above cured the December 31, 2018 noncompliance and revised the compliance requirements through the extended maturity date of the Credit Facility. The unused amount of the Credit Facility was $57,600,000 and $47,600,000 as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. The weighted average interest rate on the Credit Facility was 6.19% and 5.92% at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 respectively. (b) Term Loans On February 8, 2019, the Company, through four wholly-owned subsidiary limited liability companies (“LLC Borrowers”), each entered into a Term Loan Agreement with the U.S. branch of a German bank (“Term Loan Lender”) that provides for six separate term loans with an aggregate principal amount of $44.3 million. Each of the Term Loans is secured by a first priority security interest in a specific aircraft (“Term Loan Collateral Aircraft”) owned by an LLC Borrower, the lease for such aircraft, and a pledge by the Company of its membership interest in each of the LLC Borrowers, pursuant to a Security Agreement (the “Security Agreement”) among the LLC Borrowers and a security trustee, and certain pledge agreements. Two of the Term Loan Collateral Aircraft that are owned by the Company’s two UK special purpose entities were previously financed using special purpose financing. The interest rates payable under the Term Loans vary by aircraft, and are based on a fixed margin above either 30-day or 3-month LIBOR. The proceeds of the Term Loans were used to pay down the Credit Facility and pay off the UK LLC SPE Financing. The maturity of each Term Loan varies by aircraft, with the first Term Loan maturing in October 2020 and the last Term Loan maturing in May 2025. The debt under the Term Loans is expected to be fully amortized by rental payments received by the LLC Borrowers from the lessees of the Term Loan Collateral Aircraft during the terms of their respective leases and remarketing proceeds. The Term Loans include covenants that impose various restrictions and obligations on the LLC Borrowers, including covenants that require the LLC Borrowers to obtain the Term Loan Lender’s consent before they can take certain specified actions and certain events of default. If such an event of default occurs, subject to certain cure periods for certain events of default, the Term Loan Lender would have the right to terminate its obligations under the Term Loans, declare all or any portion of the amounts then outstanding under the Term Loans to be accelerated and due and payable, and/or exercise any other rights or remedies it may have under applicable law, including foreclosing on the assets that serve as security for the Term Loans. |

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Derivative Instruments | The Company was not party to any derivative instruments in 2018. In the first quarter of 2019, the Company entered into eight fixed pay/receive variable interest rate swaps (the “Swaps”). Six of the Swaps were entered into by the LLC Borrowers and have reduced notional amounts that mirror the amortization under the six Term Loans entered into by the LLC Borrowers, effectively converting each of the six Term Loans from variable to fixed rate, ranging from 5.38% to 6.30%. Each of these six Swaps extend for the duration of the corresponding Term Loan, with maturities from 2020 through 2025. The other two Swaps were entered into by the Company and have notional amounts that total $50 million and extend through the maturity of the Credit Facility in February of 2023. The Company entered into the Swaps in order to reduce its exposure to the risk of increased interest rates. With respect to the six Swaps entered into by the LLC Borrowers, it was deemed necessary so that the anticipated cash flows of such entities, which arise entirely from the lease rents for the aircraft owned by such entities, would be sufficient to make the required loan principal and interest payments, thereby preventing default so long as the lessees met their lease rent obligations. The two Swaps entered into by the Company protect against the exposure to interest rate increases on $50 million of the Company’s Credit Facility debt. The Company estimates the fair value of derivative instruments using a discounted cash flow technique and uses creditworthiness inputs that corroborate observable market data evaluating the Company’s and counterparties’ risk of non-performance. Valuation of the derivative instruments requires certain assumptions for underlying variables and the use of different assumptions would result in a different valuation. Management believes it has applied assumptions consistently during the period. The Company has designated seven of the Swaps as cash flow hedges. Changes in the fair value of the hedged swaps are included in other comprehensive income, which amounts are reclassified into earnings in the period in which the transaction being hedged affects earnings, i.e. with future settlements of the Swaps. One of the Swaps is not eligible under its terms for hedge treatment. Changes in fair value of non-hedge derivatives are reflected in earnings in the periods in which they occur. As such, the Company has reflected the following amounts in its income and other comprehensive income amounts: For the Six Months Ended June 30, For the Three Months Ended June 30, 2019 2018 2019 2018 Change in value of Swaps $ 451,400 $ - $ 43,000 $ - Other items (22,100 ) - (20,800 ) - Included in interest expense $ 429,300 $ - $ 22,200 $ - The following amount was included in other comprehensive income, before tax: Change in value of hedged Swaps $ (1,832,700 ) - $ (1,287,900 ) $ - Approximately $416,000 of the current balance of accumulated other comprehensive income is expected to be reclassified in the next twelve months. At June 30, 2019, the fair value of the Company’s Swaps was as follows: Designated interest rate hedges fair value $ (2,147,700 ) Other interest rate swap (81,400 ) Total derivative (liability) $ (2,229,100 ) The Company evaluates the creditworthiness of the counterparties under its hedging agreements. The swap counterparties for the Swaps are large financial institutions in the United States that possessed an investment grade credit rating. Based on this rating, the Company believes that the counterparties are creditworthy and that their continuing performance under the hedging agreements is probable. |
Lease Right of Use Asset and Li

Leases [Abstract] | |
Lease Right of Use Asset and Liability | The Company is a lessee under a lease of the office space it occupies in Burlingame, California, which expires in June of 2020, but also provides for two, successive one-year lease extension options for amounts that are substantially below the market rent for the property. The lease provides for monthly rental payments according to a fixed schedule of increasing rent payments. As a result of the below-market extension options, the Company has determined that it is reasonably certain that it will extend the lease and has, therefore, included such extended term in its calculation of the right of use asset (“ROU Asset”) and lease liability recognized in connection with the lease. In addition to a fixed monthly payment schedule, the office lease also includes an obligation for the Company to make future variable payments for certain common areas and building operating and lessor costs, which have been and will be recognized as expense in the periods in which they are incurred. As a direct pass-through of applicable expense, such costs have not been allocated as a component of the lease. The ROU Asset includes the amortized value of both the amount of liability recognized at January 1, 2019 upon adoption of Topic 842 and the amount attributable to the below market lease component recognized upon acquisition of JHC on October 1, 2018. The lease liability associated with the office lease was calculated by discounting the fixed, minimum lease payments over the remaining lease term, including the below-market extension periods, at a discount rate of 7.25%, which represents the Company’s estimate of the incremental borrowing rate for a collateralized loan for the type of underlying asset that was the subject of the office lease at the time the lease liability was evaluated. The Company estimates that the future minimum lease commitments for base rent of its office space were as follows as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018: June 30, 2019 December 31, 2018 2019 $ 98,200 $ 193,500 2020 196,400 196,400 2021 199,300 199,300 2022 101,100 101,100 595,000 $ 690,300 Discount (58,900 ) Lease liability at June 30, 2019 $ 536,100 During the quarter ended June 30, 2019, the Company recognized amortization, finance costs and other expense related to the office lease as follows: Fixed rental expense during the quarter $ 110,900 Variable lease expense 32,000 Total lease expense during the quarter $ 142,900 The Company expects that the variable lease expense will total approximately $10,700 per month through the end of the lease, including the two extension periods. |
Fair Value Measurements

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract] | |
Fair Value Measurements | Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value must maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs, to the extent possible. The fair value hierarchy under GAAP is based on three levels of inputs. Level 1 - Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 - Inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. Level 3 - Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. Assets and Liabilities Measured and Recorded at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis As of June 30, 2019, the Company measured the fair value of its interest rate swaps of $90,776,400 (notional amount) based on Level 2 inputs, due to the usage of inputs that can be corroborated by observable market data. The Company estimates the fair value of derivative instruments using a discounted cash flow technique and has used creditworthiness inputs that corroborate observable market data evaluating the Company’s and counterparties’ risk of non-performance. The Swaps had a net fair value of negative $2,229,100 as of June 30, 2019. In the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2019, $43,000 and $451,400 respectively, was realized through the income statement as an increase in interest expense. The following table shows, by level within the fair value hierarchy, the Company’s assets and liabilities at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018: June 30, 2019 December 31, 2018 Total Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Money market funds $ 659,100 $ 659,100 $ - $ - $ 656,400 $ 656,400 $ - $ - Derivatives (2,229,100 ) - (2,229,100 ) - - - - - Total $ (1,570,000 ) $ 659,100 $ (2,229,100 ) $ - $ 656,400 $ 656,400 $ - $ - There were no transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 in either the second quarters or six months ended June 30, 2019 or 2018, and there were no transfers into or out of Level 3 during the same periods. Assets Measured and Recorded at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis The Company determines fair value of long-lived assets held and used, such as aircraft and aircraft engines held for lease and these and other assets held for sale, by reference to independent appraisals, quoted market prices (e.g., offers to purchase) and other factors. These are considered Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy. An impairment charge is recorded when the Company believes that the carrying value of an asset will not be recovered through future net cash flows and that the asset’s carrying value exceeds its fair value. The Company recorded impairment charges totaling $160,000 on one of its assets held for sale in the second quarter of 2019, which had a fair value of $2,340,000. The Company recorded an impairment charge of $298,200 on one of its aircraft held for lease in the second quarter of 2018. The following table shows, by level within the fair value hierarchy, the Company’s assets at fair value on a nonrecurring basis as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018: Assets Written Down to Fair Value Total Losses June 30, 2019 December 31, 2018 For the Six Months Ended June 30, Total Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 2019 2018 Assets held for sale $ 5,703,000 $ - $ - $ 5,703,000 $ 5,800,000 $ - $ - $ 5,800,000 $ 1,568,400 $ - During the six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company recorded impairment provisions of (i) $1,408,400 based on estimated sales amounts and (ii) $160,000 based on third-party appraisals. There were no transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 in either the second quarters or six months ended June 30, 2019, and there were no transfers into or out of Level 3 during the same periods. Fair Value of Other Financial Instruments The Company’s financial instruments, other than cash and cash equivalents, consist principally of finance leases receivable, amounts borrowed under the Credit Facility, notes payable under special purpose financing and its derivative instruments. The fair value of accounts receivable, accounts payable and the Company’s maintenance reserves and accrued maintenance costs approximates the carrying value of these financial instruments because of their short-term maturities. The fair value of finance lease receivables approximates the carrying value as discussed in Note 1( d) Borrowings under the Company’s Credit Facility bear floating rates of interest that reset periodically to a market benchmark rate plus a credit margin. The Company believes the effective interest rate under the Credit Facility approximates current market rates for such indebtedness at the dates of the condensed consolidated balance sheets, and therefore that the outstanding principal and accrued interest of $87,564,500 and $122,539,300 at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively, approximate their fair values on such dates. The fair value of the Company’s outstanding balance of its Credit Facility is categorized as a Level 3 input under the GAAP fair value hierarchy. Before their repayment in February 2019 in connection with the Term Loans refinancing, the amounts payable under the UK LLC SPE Financing were payable through the fourth quarter of 2020 and bore a fixed rate of interest, as described in Note 4(b). As discussed above, during February 2019, the UK LLC SPE Financing and four assets that previously served as collateral under the Credit Facility were refinanced using the Term Loans. The Company believes the effective interest rate under the special purpose financings approximates current market rates for such indebtedness at the dates of the condensed consolidated balance sheets, and therefore that the outstanding principal and accrued interest of $40,888,800 and $9,227,200 approximate their fair values at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. Such fair value is categorized as a Level 3 input under the GAAP fair value hierarchy. There were no transfers in or out of assets or liabilities measured at fair value under Level 3 during the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018. |

Related Party Transactions [Abstract] | |
Related Party Transactions | See the description of the Merger Agreement between the Company and JHC in Note 8 above, pursuant to which the Company acquired JHC in the Merger and JHC became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company on October 1, 2018. Before completion of the Merger, the Company’s portfolio of aircraft assets was managed and administered under the terms of a management agreement with JMC (the “Management Agreement”). Certain officers of the Company were also officers of JHC and JMC and held significant ownership positions in both JHC and the Company, and JHC was also a significant stockholder of AeroCentury. Under the Management Agreement, JMC received a monthly management fee based on the net asset value of the Company’s assets under management. JMC also received an acquisition fee for locating assets for the Company. Acquisition fees were included in the cost basis of the asset purchased. JMC also received a remarketing fee in connection with the re-lease or sale of the Company’s assets. Remarketing fees were amortized over the applicable lease term or included in the gain or loss on sale. In April 2018, subsequent to the execution of the Merger Agreement for the acquisition of JHC, JHC agreed to waive its right to receive management and acquisition fees (“Contract Fees”) otherwise owed by the Company to JHC pursuant to the Management Agreement for all periods after March 31, 2018 and until the earlier of the consummation of the Merger or August 15, 2018. In return, the Company agreed to reimburse JMC for expenses (“Management Expense”) incurred in providing management services set forth under the Management Agreement. In July 2018, JHC agreed to extend the expiration of this agreement (the “Waiver and Reimbursement Agreement”) through October 15, 2018. Thus, if the Merger Agreement was terminated on or before October 15, 2018 or the Merger did not close by October 15, 2018, the Company would have become obligated to pay JMC any excess (the “JMC Margin”) of (i) the Contract Fees that would have been paid to JMC since April 1, 2018 in the absence of the Waiver and Reimbursement Agreement over (ii) the Management Expenses actually paid by the Company to JMC since April 1, 2018. For the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2018, contractual fees exceeded the reimbursed management fees by $497,200 of management fees and $494,400 of acquisition fees. Notwithstanding the Waiver and Reimbursement Agreement, until the closing or termination of the Merger Agreement, the Company accrued as an expense the total Contract Fees that would have been due under the Management Agreement. Because the Merger closed on October 1, 2018, the Waiver and Reimbursement Agreement for the period April 1, 2018 through September 30, 2018 was considered in the acquisition accounting for the calculation of the settlement loss recognized by the Company when the Merger was consummated. The Company incurred management fees of $1,502,100 and $2,948,800 during the three months and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively. Acquisition fees incurred during the same periods totaled $494,400. |

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
The Company and Basis of Presentation | AeroCentury Corp. (“AeroCentury”) is a Delaware corporation incorporated in 1997. AeroCentury together with its consolidated subsidiaries is referred to as the “Company.” In August 2016, AeroCentury formed two wholly-owned subsidiaries, ACY 19002 Limited (“ACY 19002”) and ACY 19003 Limited (“ACY 19003”) for the purpose of acquiring aircraft using a combination of cash and third-party financing (“UK LLC SPE Financing” or “special purpose financing”) separate from AeroCentury’s credit facility (the “Credit Facility”). The UK LLC SPE Financing was repaid in full in February 2019 as part of a refinancing involving new non-recourse term loans totaling approximately $44.3 million (“Term Loans”) made to ACY 19002, ACY 19003, and two other newly formed special purpose subsidiaries of AeroCentury. See Note 4(b) for more information about the Term Loans. On October 1, 2018, AeroCentury acquired JetFleet Holding Corp. (“JHC”) in a reverse triangular merger (“Merger”) for consideration of approximately $2.9 million in cash and 129,217 shares of common stock of AeroCentury, as determined pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) entered into by AeroCentury, JHC and certain other parties in October 2017. JHC is the parent company of JetFleet Management Corp. (“JMC”), which is an integrated aircraft management, marketing and financing business and the manager of the Company’s assets. Upon completion of the Merger, JHC became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, and as a result, JHC's results are included in the Company's consolidated financial statements beginning on October 1, 2018. In November 2018, AeroCentury formed two wholly-owned subsidiaries, ACY SN 15129 LLC (“ACY 15129”) and ACY E-175 LLC (“ACY E-175”), for the purpose of refinancing four of the Company’s aircraft using the Term Loans. Because the Term Loans did not close until February 2019, the subject aircraft remained as collateral under the Credit Facility as of December 31, 2018, and ACY 15129 and ACY E-175 had no activity in 2018. Financial information for AeroCentury and its consolidated subsidiaries is presented on a consolidated basis in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information, the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three- month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2019 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2019 or for any other period. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. |
Use of Estimates | The Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable for making judgments that are not readily apparent from other sources. The most significant estimates with regard to these condensed consolidated financial statements are the residual values and useful lives of the Company’s long-lived assets, the amount and timing of future cash flows associated with each asset that are used to evaluate whether assets are impaired, accrued maintenance costs, accounting for income taxes, the assumptions used to value the Company’s derivative instruments, the valuation of the right of use asset and related lease liability associated with the Company’s office, and the amounts recorded as allowances for doubtful accounts. |
Comprehensive Income | The Company reflects changes in the fair value of its interest rate swap derivatives that are designated as hedges in other comprehensive income. Such amounts are reclassified into earnings in the periods in which the hedged transaction occurs, and are included in interest expense. |
Finance Leases | As of June 30, 2019, the Company had four aircraft subject to sales-type finance leases and three aircraft subject to direct financing leases. All seven leases contain lessee bargain purchase options at prices substantially below the subject asset’s estimated residual value at the exercise date for the option. Consequently, the Company has classified each of these seven leases as finance leases for financial accounting purposes. For such finance leases, the Company reports the discounted present value of (i) future minimum lease payments (including the bargain purchase option) and (ii) any residual value not subject to a bargain purchase option, as a finance lease receivable on its balance sheet, and accrues interest on the balance of the finance lease receivable based on the interest rate inherent in the applicable lease over the term of the lease. For each of the four sales-type finance leases, the Company recognized as a gain or loss the amount equal to (i) the net investment in the sales-type finance lease plus any initial direct costs and lease incentives less (ii) the net book value of the subject aircraft at inception of the applicable lease. The Company recognized interest earned on finance leases in the amount of $260,100 and $361,300 in the quarters ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively and $496,200 and $740,400 in the six-month periods ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. |
Interest Rate Hedging | During the first quarter of 2019, the Company entered into certain derivative instruments to mitigate its exposure to variable interest rates under the Term Loans debt and a portion of the Credit Facility debt. Hedge accounting is applied to such a transaction only if specific criteria have been met, the transaction is deemed to be “highly effective” and the transaction has been designated as a hedge at its inception. Under hedge accounting treatment, generally, the effects of derivative transactions are recorded in earnings for the period in which the hedge transaction affects earnings. A change in value of a hedging instrument is reported as a component of other comprehensive income and is reclassified into earnings in the period in which the transaction being hedged affects earnings. |
Recent Accounting Pronouncements | Topic 842 In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-02, Leases (“ ”) The new standard requires a lessor to classify leases as sales-type, finance, or operating. A lease is treated as sales-type if it transfers all of the risks and rewards, as well as control of the underlying asset, to the lessee. If risks and rewards are conveyed without the transfer of control, the lease is treated as a finance lease. If the lessor does not convey risks and rewards or control, an operating lease results. As a result of application of the practical expedients, the Company was not required to alter the classification or carrying value of its leased or finance lease assets. Lessee reporting was changed by the new standard, requiring that the balance sheet reflect a liability for most operating lease obligations as well as a “right of use” asset. As such, the Company was required to record a lease obligation of approximately $600,000 in connection with the lease of its headquarters office, and to increase the capitalized leasehold interest / right of use asset by a similar amount upon adoption, as discussed in Note 6. There was no effect on retained earnings recorded as a result of adoption of the standard. The Company did not elect the lessee practical expedient to combine the lease and non-lease components. ASU 2016-13 The FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326) . ASU 2017-12 In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-12, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities ASU 2018-13 In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820) |
