"I have purchased one aircraft and sold one aircraft with the services that AirMart provides and their service has been excellent. AirMart makes buying and selling an aircraft very easy and I will likely use AirMart in my future transactions."

"Heather was really helpful for a first time buyer. She was flexible and responsive. It was a pleasure to work with her!"

"AirMart led me through my first aircraft purchase with a lot of patience and excellent guidance. The aircraft was fairly priced , and the staff addressed all needs in a timely and friendly manner. I would recommend AirMart to anyone!"

"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!"

Never having sold a plane before I was prepared for a nightmare. You made it a pleasure! You have my sincere thanks!

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.

"When it came time to sell my airplane, I was looking for the simplest, low hassle approach possible. I contacted several brokers, and inquired about retail sales terms and wholesale offers. When I called Grant at AirMart, he immediately returned my call with a very fair offer on my aircraft. The process from offer to sale was well designed, professional, and expedient. A week later, we closed on the transaction. The staff and employees at AirMart are professional and very friendly. I was guided through every step of the transaction, and was treated very well. Thank you."

"The folks at AirMart did what they said they could do and more. My plane sold in less than 3 weeks and close to my asking price. I was also out of the country during the entire transaction which would normally make things much more complicated, it didn't. A very professional experience. Thank you!"

"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."

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.

"My experience with AirMart was very favorable. They coordinated the plane's relocation to their facility, as well as the minor maintenance issues necessary to facilitate the sale. The closing was professionally handled, and AirMart definitely brought value to the transaction."

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.

"The AirMart team did a great job from the beginning- very professional, always had my best interest. They did everything for me and I had no added trouble. Sold the plane in a great time frame. I look forward to working with them in 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!"

"It was a pleasure purchasing my Cessna 182T from AirMart. Tom Ferguson and Heather Hammond where excellent to deal with. Very knowledgeable, pleasant and trustworthy. Every question I asked was answered promptly. There were no hard sell tactics. They delivered everything from the paperwork to the plane in a timely manner. If there is ever another airplane purchase in my future my first call will be to AirMart! I highly recommend dealing with AirMart.

"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."

"It was great dealing with AirMart. This was the very first plane I purchased and he made it smooth and simple, from my initial call to the final closing. If I ever decide to change or upgrade planes in the future I will definitely do it with AirMart. In addition, dealing with AIC Title was smooth and easy."

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.

"In over a year of looking at used aircraft, Grant was the first seller to accurately describe what he had to sell. In fact, everyone who looked at the Archer agreed that, inside and out, it is better than what he described. The AirMart representatives with whom I dealt were professional, thorough, and pleasant."

"I really did enjoy my experience with AirMart. Very accessible and professional. Once a buyer was found, the process went very smooth and efficient. I would not hesitate to use AirMart again."

"I would like to say a big “Thank You” to everybody at AirMart. I have purchased a good number of airplanes (new and used) over the last MANY years. Most of the experiences have been pretty good. Unfortunately, a few have been not so good. The professional approach by the whole gang at AirMart has made the buying experience just plain fun! If the flying Gods deem that there is another airplane in my future, then I’m calling Grant and the gang to make it happen. Thanks for all of your collective professionalism."

"I recently purchased a Cessna Turbo 210 through AirMart. I would never have made it through this long and, at times, very frustrating purchase had it not been for the patience and professionalism of the staff at AirMart and in particular the hard work of Heather. Her commitment to detail was always on full display. Without hesitation, I would use them again and highly recommend them for both selling or purchasing your next aircraft"

"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 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."

"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!"

"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!"

I enjoy my aircraft very much. I would like to thank you for the professional way you pack the aircraft. I appreciate and confirm that I received the Cessna T182T in a 100% condition. I will definitely recommend AirMart to other people.

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

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

"The reason I initially selected AirMart for an aircraft purchase was their willingness to accept my former aircraft as a trade-in. The reason I will select them for future trades and/or purchases is their meticulous attention to all details of the trade/purchase to include prompt responses to all of my many e-mail questions. I did not purchase one of AirMart's higher priced aircraft; however, I still received all of the attention and advice that I would have expected had I purchased the most expensive aircraft in their inventory. Jeff Ray was especially helpful by informing me of every step involved in the process. I also appreciate the very thorough annual inspection and careful detailing of the aircraft before it was delivered to me. I'll be back! "

"As a first time airplane buyer I was very apprehensive. I had help and guidance from AOPA and from my friends and my instructor at my local FBO. But I was very fortunate to come upon an airplane that was listed with Jeff Ray through AirMart. I had several terrific conversations with Jeff and he gave me more than simply information about his listings. He also listened to my needs and wants and he also gave me a great deal of practical advice and guidance about the entire purchase process. I believe Jeff is a man of integrity which was hard to find in my previous dealings with other brokers and owners. Once we put the plane under contract I had the pleasure of dealing with Shelby at AirMart who was wonderful and helpful. I know I will be doing business again with AirMart in the future. I can highly recommend that you do the same!"

"I have now dealt with Airmart on two occasions. Both times, everything was handled in such a professional, stress-free way, and everything was smooth as glass. Grant and the rest of the Airmart team are A-1. Thanks for the great service."

"Cathy and I would like to thank each of you for your help. You have all made this a pleasant and wonderful experience! You are all true professionals in your field."

"AirMart exceeded my expectations once again. This is my second purchase from them in less than 30 days. It was worth it to let them find what I was looking for while I concentrated on growing my business. AirMart is a first class operation and I recommend them to any body that values their time. Thank you to the entire staff."

"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 really appreciate the effort Jad and Grant put forth in assisting me with the purchase of my first plane. They made the process smooth and simple from start to finish."

"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!"

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.

"You were patient and helpful in choosing the Archer III because I hadn't owned an airplane for 20 years and wasn't sure what I wanted. You then sold me an airplane that is perfect for my needs at a reasonable price. After I got home with the plane and found that an antenna was defective, you insisted on paying for the repair. I don't think you could have done better, and I can't imagine buying an airplane from anyone else."

I was very pleased with my purchasing experience. AirMart made the process quick and painless. Everyone that I worked with was very professional and helpful. They were available when I needed them and did everything that I asked.

Thanks again for everything! You made the transaction so simple. Pat was great. The plane is great. I flew the wings off yesterday. I even got sunburned I was out there so much. I am a pretty simple guy and don't buy a lot of things for myself so I usually have pretty significant "buyers remorse" when I make a large purchase such as this. I have to say, I have absolutely no remorse and am actually even happier than I expected to be. The pictures on the internet did not do this plane justice. This thing is gorgeous. It makes a man feel good when all the guys at the airport are standing around talking about what a good looking plane this is and how it is in pristine condition!

"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!"

"The team at AirMart did a great job with my purchase of the Piper Dakota. As a first time buyer I had a ton of questions and concerns but in the end we ended up with a beautiful Dakota that was fully loaded w/ the latest avionics so we're are very happy. Ferry flight back to WI was great and allowed me to get some time to get up to speed w/ the Aspen panel. Thanks again for the help & great job!"

"AirMart was very helpful in the purchase process of my Beech V35B. A real asset was the assistance Tom Ferguson who contributed to the prebuy inspection. If you are in the market to buy or sell a plane, do consider contacting Grant Sutherlin at AirMart for first class service."

"I must say that you guys have really exceeded every expectation I could have ever hoped for. Absolutely tremendous service! I was very pleased on how you so accurately described the Commander and how far and above you went to make it a presentable airplane. So often today it seems as though you pay too much and get little in return, not so with you guys!! I'm just amazed at how accommodating everybody was during my visit. Honest, friendly, professional, and knowledgeable. Even the Title Company you used was a pleasure to work with. I can not emphasize enough on how pleased I was with every aspect of the transaction! Beautiful facilities as well!"

Thank you for the wonderful experience I had selling my plane. Everything went very smoothly, and quickly. I sold my plane in a little over a week which was a lot less time than I expected.

"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 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!"

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.

I could not ask for a better purchasing experience! The AirMart staff was very helpful and kept us up to date on each process all the way to close. We will certainly use AirMart again in the future.
