"My experience with AirMart was fantastic! Grant was responsive in answering my initial questions and throughout the entire transaction. He was up-front about the ECI cylinder AD and kept me up to date with the in-progress annual inspection results. There was no question about addressing any issues with the plane. The aircraft was in meticulous condition inside and out. I flew it home to Seattle from Lexington without a single issue. This was my first purchase after not flying for 8 years, so I was a bit nervous about the purchase. AirMart came highly recommended by other well-known brokers and this delivery confirmed everything that was said. I purchased this Bonanza after months of discovery on ASO.COM, Controller and Trade-a-Plane. The detailed spec-sheets, pictures, video and pre-posted log books made my research tremendously easier and saved both of us a lot of time. When I contacted Grant I knew this was one of my final 2 choices. The transparency and effort AirMart put into marketing this plane made my final decision much easier! I will definitely contact AirMart when I’m ready to upgrade!"

"Cindy and Heather- Thank you for your assistance in my purchase. The aircraft was exactly as described, and the purchase could not have gone better. Heather was a professional in every sense, and communication with her was easy - through various texts, phone calls, and e-mails. I ended up meeting the owner and closing the very next morning. Thanks again."

Having recently made the agonizing decision to sell my beloved Cherokee SIX 260, I decided to solicit Air Mart to facilitate the sale. The aircraft served me well over the years providing speedy transportation for myself, my wife and all five children up and down the east coast. From start to finish the folks at Air Mart were professional, courteous, and knowledgeable, after legal paperwork and advertisement they had people standing in line to buy. Thanks so much Bob and Annie for a great job. PS: might see you guys in the spring for something smaller...

"The staff at AirMart made buying my airplane hassle free and easy. I had a great experience. The airplane that I bought is not only perfect, but was in the exact condition as represented on the listing. I am very happy with the aircraft and the service, and would not hesitate to use AirMart again in the future."

"AirMart appraised my airplane that sold for top dollar. They also made recommendations that I complied with to get top dollar. I would use AirMart in the future to sell another airplane because they are highly professional people who deliver!"

"This was the first time that I used a broker to sell a plane. What a pleasure it was to work with highly trained professionals. Your web site was beyond my expectations. Heather was knowledgeable and eager to sell my plane. I had a buyer in less than one week. That's results! Well done!"

"I just wanted to tell you how pleased I was with the sale of my Cessna T206 airplane last week. I really didn’t expect to sell my plane this quickly having done so in just under 7 weeks! You certainly went all out to make sure I had plenty of exposure since we had interest from as far south as Puerto Rico and as far north as Canada. When I first listed with you I really liked the fact you sent a staff member up to take pictures of my plane without me having to leave my hangar here in SW Pa. When we had an interested buyer, I was impressed when Tom came up and was, not only the point person aka sales rep for me but was also the AP doing the compression check for the buyer’s representative. Thank you for flying me home after I delivered my aircraft to you at Lexington Airport. I really appreciated all the honest answers and immediate attention you gave me when needed. I will certainly call you when I decide to buy again. Just as you did when we sold my C-182, 5 years ago, you turned a big deal into a great deal!"

I regard AirMart as an excellent, professional, courteous and friendly Company for the following reasons: When I was looking for an Aircraft to buy, the sales executive "Adam" was very courteous by calling me back and giving me a few choices of Airplanes, but they were above my budget. Adam called me a few more times with different options and finally several weeks later they had the exact Airplane that I was looking for. A Cessna 172K XP with 210 HP. My friend and I flew Commercial from LAX to LEX to check this Aircraft out and see if it was what I was looking for. The paperwork was a breeze, everyone was extremely courteous, friendly and professional. My friend and I flew back to Southern California without any problems, thank God. I recommend AirMart highly, I would do business with this company any time without any hesitation.

“When I sold my Cirrus, I knew exactly which sales force to use -- AirMart. I've now purchased and sold aircraft with them.  Why AirMart?  Because they provide a noise-free, honest, responsive team that has one purpose--getting me the best deal.”

This is my second experience with AirMart and like the first one, it was a pleasurable experience. All of their staff are very professional and easy to do business with.

"This is my third occasion to work with AirMart for an aircraft transaction. AirMart did not have in its inventory, the aircraft I wanted but Heather was willing to spend a considerable amount of time locating my preferred make and model. After locating that specific aircraft from another broker, she was able to negotiate a very fair purchase price. She then explained the differential costs and benefits of AirMart accepting my current aircraft on a trade-in basis versus signing a broker agreement. I chose the trade-in option and was more than satisfied with the very efficient transactions which involved arranging for a pre-buy inspection, flying the new aircraft to Lexington for a final inspection and detailing, and then AirMart picking up the trade-in at my home airport and delivering my new aircraft to my home airport. I purchased my first aircraft 35 years ago (a '47 Ercoupe) with no purchase agreement, no pre-buy, no title search, and no test flight. Let's just say I have since learned the value of those items after making several purchases of light general aviation aircraft throughout those 31 years. I have also learned to let AirMart do it for you - They make it easy!"

"I have been flying for 10 years but I have always rented. When the time came to buy my first aircraft I wanted the experience to be seamless and trouble free. After I decided that the right aircraft for my mission and budget was a Piper Archer II I scanned the market for almost a year until I found the right one with AirMart. Since the moment I contacted them to the day I flew my Archer II away from their location at Lexington, they exceed my expectations at every step of the way. When the time is right to upgrade my newly acquired flying machine I know where to look first, AirMart."

"AirMart was great and bent over backwards to make the deal go through smoothly and quickly. I hope to do business with AirMart again."

Our Experience with AirMart was a good one. Grant and his staff were responsive both before and after the sale. Everything they said they would do, they did. We would definitely use AirMart again given the chance.

"I am a repeat AirMart customer and most certainly will be a third repeat when I am again ready to sell or trade an aircraft. Jeff Ray was most helpful in negotiating for me a very fair price for an aircraft listed with another broker. He then sold an aircraft for me within one week of listing with AirMart. Jeff Ray and Shelby Lord will respond very promptly to any inquiry or concern you might have during the listing and sales transaction. Times have certainly changed since I purchased my first aircraft (a '46 Ercoupe) 40 years ago over a handshake and a cup of coffee. The legal, financial, mechanical inspection, escrow requirements, insurance, and documentation issues that are necessary today are well worth the broker fee charged by AirMart. They do it all for you!"

AirMart was outstanding and trustworthy. The first plane I looked at was exactly as described. That one sold fast and I missed it. After seeing photos of the second plane and talking to with a sales manager, I bought it sight unseen. Should say a lot about their reputation. Thanks for a great plane.

AirMart did a good job in advertising and getting the word out about the sale of my aircraft. All in all the sale went smoothly.

Thanks to the staff at AirMart for making the purchase of my Cessna Cardinal so easy. They answered all my questions promptly no matter if I called during working hours or called after hours or even on the weekend. Great professional service and courtesy. True customer service and satisfaction is hard to find these days, but not at AirMart.

"I have owned four airplanes over the past eight years and there is a pretty good chance I will own several more over the next several years. I can assure you I will always do my very best to buy all of them from AirMart. Every person I come along interested in buying an airplane, I will tell them to check out your website and buy from AirMart because they will stand behind their products to the fullest. Thank you and most sincerely!"

"I am very pleased with AirMart for selling my plane. From the day you picked up the plane until the money was in the bank, it was handled very professionally. I felt AirMart was always working for the best of my interests and I fully trust AirMart. I highly recommend AirMart to anyone who wants to sell their airplane. I liked how you kept the instruments updated and the Annual Inspection done at Mustang Aviation at reasonable rates."

"I just want to congratulate you on a job well done. I absolutely love the C182S that I purchased. I had been searching for just the right C182 for over a year, however, I had just not been satisfied with what I had seen. Then I came across your company. I spoke with Grant, and he immediately went to work to find the perfect C182 for me. Grant took the time to talk with me about what I wanted and needed in an airplane. He really helped me to narrow my search to the C182S series. He then kept in contact with me regarding what he had and what airplanes might be coming into his inventory. He worked very hard to keep me informed, and he always seemed happy to answer my many questions. I always felt that he had my best interests at heart. The airplane that he found for me flies like a dream and continues to be a delight to own. I am very happy that I bought it! Thank you, again, for doing such a great job. I enthusiastically recommend AirMart to everyone I know who is buying or selling an airplane."

"My experience with AirMart was a great turn-key experience. The entire AirMart team provided support all the way to closing."

"This was my third aircraft purchase but my first Cirrus SR22 purchase. From the first conversation, Grant was professional and kind, answering all of my questions honestly and in a timely manner. In the end, what I got was not only a beautiful airplane but a great service customer experience. As a restaurateur, I place a great deal of importance on customer service. Going above and beyond also makes a BIG difference to me. Grant and the team at AirMart even arranged to reposition my new airplane from Atlanta to Montgomery for the Kelly Aerospace AC install. They took care of all of the arrangements at the shop for me and Matt, their pilot, flew down from KY to ATL to take me on a test flight! If you are in the market for an airplane - I highly recommend you give the team at AirMart a call. With their expertise, you are guaranteed a GREAT experience from the first email or phone call through closing - and then some! Thank you AIRMART!

"AirMart handled the sale of my DA40 quickly and professionally. I was very pleased and would highly recommend doing business with AirMart."

"AirMart did a great job selling my Cessna 206. I would use the words: patient, thorough, professional, and respectful. I would engage AirMart again should the need ever arise."

It was a pleasure to work with AirMart. My aircraft was sold quickly and efficiently.

"We found AirMart to be be very accommodating and motivated to meet our needs. It has been a pleasurable experience."

"It was a pleasure working with Air Mart on our aircraft purchase. The staff was professional and helped me with all my needs. I would highly recommend them."

I wanted to take a moment to comment on the outstanding experience purchasing Cessna 172S. I could not have asked for better treatment as a client/customer. I coordinated the sale through Adam Mabry with an assist from Annie on the administrative side and their professionalism, courtesy and enthusiasm throughout the process was a 1st class act. The experience reflects highly on them, the company leadership, and AirMart. Special thanks also go to the Maintenance staff for getting the airplane in beautiful condition mechanically and aesthetically for the trip home. I also tip my hat in thanks for going above and beyond in taking care of the customer (me) and remedying a non-required (per contract) maintenance issue post-buy. AirMart's act of under-promising and over-delivering was surprisingly refreshing and made me feel important and appreciated as a client. Thanks to Adam, Annie and the rest of the AirMart Team. I'll be back and will be referring friends.

"I am very happy with the service and communication with AirMart for the sale of my SR-20. I didn’t want any hassles, and that is the main reason I went with a broker. AirMart made it easy to send pictures and documents, and handled all the buyer hassles. The communication was just right – not too much, not too little, just regular brief and concise updates. AirMart’s knowledge of market pricing and negotiations made what I thought would be a high-stress transaction very simple and stress-free. AirMart was able to secure a purchase price that was 96% of my original asking price. I will recommend AirMart to anyone looking to sell an aircraft."

"5 years ago I purchased my first aircraft with Airmart and was extremely impressed with the quick attention to details and how seamless the staff at AirMart made the purchasing process. Fast forward to the present time, when it was time to sell that same airplane I didn't even have a second thought on who to call! Heather and the rest of the staff made the selling process just as easy as the buying process. Thanks for all your help and the A+ service you provide to the GA community!"

AirMart did a fantastic job selling my T210M. I got good advice on everything.. The sale happened quickly and went very smoothly and I couldn't be happier.

Please convey my deepest gratitude to you and the AirMart team for the excellent service provided from the day I decided to sell my airplane. Your professionalism is permeates to every member of the team -from the competent ferry pilot, to your sales persons, to your office staff. After a reasonable short period and four qualified offers later, I received the funds without a glitch as you went above and beyond my expectations.

AirMart handled my Malibu sale from start to finish in a professional manner. The marketing efforts were first class. Their control of the entire process was very well done.

“My purchase of my 1982 Beechcraft Bonanza couldn't have gone any smother. The staff was very professional and courteous. I arrived at their location in Lexington, KY and my aircraft was in the hangar. I spent the next 30 minutes looking over the aircraft and afterwards their was a representative was waiting on the sidelines to answer my questions. Their was no wasted time as I had to drive back home afterwards. They took my wife and I out to lunch at a very nice place and we continued our conversation in regards to the plane. I had a very good feeling about the whole experience as my wife and I drove home. I have been looking for an aircraft for almost a year and have come across a lot of shady outfits. This was not one of them. I would highly recommend using Airmart for their selection, professionalism, and the ability to get the job done. Thanks to Adam, Grant and Annie for making my dream come true!”

"AirMart sold my Aircraft fast! Heather did a great job and communicated the whole way."

"Thank you for your help selling my plane. You were a steady hand throughout the process, and I really appreciated your professionalism and wise counsel."

"I have used the services of AirMart for several years and several transactions. The products the sell are top notch. They deliver what they say. I recommend them highly!"

“I am very happy with everyone at AirMart. Paul was awesome to work with. I definitely will work with AirMart in the future.”

"I thought in this economy it would take months to sell my Piper 6X. Grant had it sold in 2 weeks! He and his entire staff are a first class organization who value truth and integrity."

"Our experience with purchasing our Archer III from AirMart in June and July of 2013 was certainly a positive one. We appreciated the professional yet personal interactions we had with the company's staff throughout the process. We were most impressed with the extensive and conveniently organized and available documents provided, both online and in person. AirMart was easy to work with when glitches occurred even after delivery of the aircraft."

"Thank you for all your hard work in selling my plane through AirMart. The process was simple and painless. Grant was great to act as the intermediary to resolve any questions or issues from the buyer. I will definitely use AirMart again when buying or selling a plane."

"You handled the transaction very professionally and I am very satisfied with your work. THANK YOU!"

“The team at AirMart is VERY professional and accommodating. We had a very complicated transaction, but they stayed on top of it and ahead on communications. I always knew what to expect. If I didn’t know, a quick phone call made me feel very comfortable. AirMart made sure I knew what I was getting and helped me feel very good about my decision. Well done team AirMart!”

I highly recommend AirMart and the stellar team I worked with including Adam, Grant and Annie, to name a few. My first Cirrus purchase at AirMart was my first aircraft purchase ever. The buying experience was fantastic, especially considering my inexperience at buying an airplane for the first time. AirMart handled the process beautifully at all stages with excellent recommendations for financing, insurance, pre-buy, and transition instruction. I was even connected with a Cirrus Standardized Instructor Pilot (CSIP) for transition training under the Cirrus Embark program which was phenomenal and boosted my confidence and safety in operating my new airplane; as an added benefit, the cost of instruction was covered by Cirrus. When I landed at my home airport, I was greeted by compliments from my FBO friends for my great looking plane. For first time buyers or long-time owners, I strongly recommend the team at AirMart for their professionalism and support. You will be happy you went with AirMart!

"You guys did a great job selling my 2006 Cirrus SR-22! I was very attached to the airplane. I purchased it new from the factory. I have 9 years of amazing memories flying this airplane all over the USA. The pros at AirMart love aviation and understand the emotional attachment its buyers and sellers have to their airplanes. It is a love affair that most of us began in childhood. When our newborn gets a little older we will call on AirMart to find the perfect Cirrus again!"

"Working with Bob was fantastic.  He was able to work through a number of challenges around the sale to make it as smooth as possible, and he stuck around until the plane was in my hands to make sure everything was in great shape. Given the work he put in, I'm definitely going to check out AirMart if and when I decide to sell my plane!"

"I want to sincerely thank the entire staff at AirMart, for a professional and painless experience. I was treated with respect throughout the process and my young son who came with me was also given the royal treatment. The AirMart people and facilities are top-notch. I also appreciated A taking on the titling and transfer tasks, which saved me time, trouble, and expense. Special thanks to Cindy, who graciously worked logistics issues for me and my Son before and during our trip to Lexington; Heather, who was so courteous and knowledgeable about the aircraft ownership/transfer process; and Tom, who proved to be a great wingman/instructor to fly with on a demo and advised me throughout. To all pilots/companies who may be considering purchasing an aircraft, please consider AirMart...you will find INTEGRITY there."

The is the second time I have dealt with AirMart and they didn’t disappoint. Their people are professional and courteous, the sale was easy and seamless just like last time. 

“Having been looking for an used Cessna Skylane for a few months I was delighted to find AirMart's inventory not only reasonably priced but also of very high quality compared to the rest of the market. AirMart team did excellent job representing the airplanes with accurate spec sheets, high quality pictures and logbooks always readily available. When a superb Skylane showed up on the web site, I called Grant immediately.  From the first call to delivery it took just about 10 days, with Grant, Matt, Annie helping every step of the way. Everyone is very responsive and helpful over email and phone. When I arrived at AirMart the staff was friendly and professional, and I found the plane exactly as advertised and it was in pristine condition. I'm very pleased with the entire experience and would highly recommended AirMart.”

"Once again I contacted AirMart to assist me in selling my Cirrus SR22. I have purchased one plane and sold two planes with the help of AirMart and through each of these experiences, I have been completely satisfied. Their staff is always very professional and helpful which makes them very easy to do business with. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a quality airplane at a fair price, or just wanting to get a fair price for their airplane."

"I bought a Cherokee Six through AirMart, and I was incredibly impressed with every aspect of the experience. First, during my initial evaluations of the airplanes, to be able to view every page of the aircraft logs, engine logs, and propeller logs right from the website, was INCREDIBLY helpful and informative. Then, to have links to YouTube videos of the exterior and interior of the airplane, was amazing (you feel like you're walking around and in the airplane - seeing everything the photos may not show, and it makes you feel more confident that a photo didn't "miss" an imperfection.) It's just a very "clean" website, giving you of the pertinent information, in an incredibly user friendly and informative way. Once I contacted AirMart, Rodney was incredibly helpful. He gave me his honest insights, and, made himself very accessible (even after hours) to help however he could. During the purchasing process, Rodney was an effective mediator between me and the seller (this was an airplane they were brokering), and helped us work through any issues that hindered the process. Rodney was incredibly diligent in researching the airplane I had decided to purchase (an airplane that wasn't originally his listing), and found issues in the logbooks that I had completely missed! He brought it to my attention, even knowing that it could jeopardize the sale. This level of integrity is very rare (and, it helped assure me that they weren't trying to hide anything, just for a quick sale.) My understanding from other pilots who have worked with AirMart is that Grant, the owner, will never sell an airplane (at ANY cost) that isn't in excellent condition (he will refuse airplanes, or fix important issues, before selling them.) Of course, there is no "perfect" airplane, and little squawks can be missed, but, it's nice knowing that they have a high level of both quality control and integrity. Once the purchase decision was finalized, Shelby handled all of the paperwork, and walked me through the process step-by-step. Like Rodney, Shelby, made herself very accessible (even after hours), to help make this a smooth process. She didn't make me "guess" about anything - always going above and beyond to get me the information I needed, and answering all of my questions in a very patient and confident way. I would, with certainty and without any hesitation, buy from AirMart, again. Thank you, Rodney & Shelby, for your diligence, helpfulness, and integrity. And, thank you, Grant, for having a company with a reputation built on these principles!"

"I would like to thank Grant, Matt and the rest of your staff at AirMart for assisting me in selling my Cirrus. Each and every person on your team was professional and followed through with each and every step. I look forward to working with you all in the future."

This was my first Aircraft purchase and with the market plays in force made the decision to purchase from the States and import to Australia a rather attractive one. After much searching I settled on a 182T being marketed by AirMart. I found dealing with Grant and Nancy of Airmart to be extremely easy and straight forward. They were very helpful in assisting me through the process including recommendations for pre-purchase inspections and suitable Pilots to relocate the Aircraft etc. I found their marketing strategy of providing videos and photographs very helpful. Grant also showed great honesty and integrity by advising of some very small but minor damage that wasn't at all recognizable in photo's and video's. I would have no hesitation in recommending Grant, Nancy and AirMart to any one looking to purchase an aircraft.

"I was pleased both buying and selling! Good work."

Working with AirMart and Paul in selling my 206 was a good experience. The pictures and description on your website were way beyond anything I had expected. The paperwork for the actual sale was handled much more efficiently than I had expected. Doing everything online was wonderful. Communication throughout the process was excellent. I would highly recommend AirMart to anyone considering buying or selling an airplane.

"I was directed to AirMart when I answered the ad for our new plane, an Archer 181. From the get-go, I found Adam and Tiffany (and other employees) more than helpful. I always was able to get in contact with them and as this was the first time I bought an airplane, they guided me through on all the steps. Their tracking document that checks off all the steps finished/to do was very helpful. I can recommend AirMart with the highest confidence that anyone would have the same good, quality experience I did. I never felt like I was working with a broker, bank or 3rd party. It was more like working with friends or co-workers. Thanks to AirMart we now have a new plane."

"This will be the second plane I have purchased from AirMart and the experience, as always, exceeded my expectations. I had purchased the plane without ever seeing it, other than pictures. I felt comfortable doing this because I have complete confidence that the airplane will be in as good if not better condition than what they had described. Sure enough, the plane was in very good condition, just as AirMart had said. I have sold two airplanes by AirMart as well and the experience was outstanding on both occasions. With great leadership and a professional sales team, you can always expect World Class Service from them."

"I would like to express my appreciation to the staff at AirMart for the wonderful customer service I received when purchasing my newly acquired Cherokee 6. Heather displayed the highest professionalism and provided the sound advice I needed in making the purchasing decision. From my initial inquiry about the aircraft to following up after the purchase, her friendliness, expertise, and attention to detail was second to none. Thank you for your quality customer service and if I purchase another aircraft, AirMart will be my first shopping stop."

"Once again I had a great experience purchasing a 1998 Piper Archer III from AirMart a few weeks ago. Whether I was buying or selling an airplane, the experience has always exceeded by expectations. All transactions and the closings were handled very professionally and they really do make it a pleasurable experience. Most importantly is, that when each aircraft arrived at my home airport, the condition was actually better than what I had expected. Their goal is always to make sure their customer has a great experience and is totally happy with the aircraft."

"My experience with your company was above expectations. In a day and time when most companies and/or people don't always fulfill their obligations, you did that and more. Thank you so much for the smooth transaction. I would definitely do business with AirMart again and recommend you to my friends."

"Doing business with Air Mart was a very pleasurable experience. The attention to detail and concern you have for your customers goes well beyond expectations and is nothing less than exemplary. You can rest assured that everyone I come in contact with, relating to aviation, hears about AirMart and when I am ready to trade I will be back."
