“Thanks for this. Finalizing the sale of my aircraft. It’s been a long task with many faulty starts with potential buyers. Your very professional service and perseverance are much appreciated and admired.”
Charles Strasser OBE – January 2023
“I’ve used JKV aviation twice in the last two years to sell two aircraft . Whilst one sale was simple and straightforward the second one was a lot more complex. On each occasion John showed a high level of professionalism combined with in-depth knowledge of the legalisation requirements. JKV aviation clearly have access to potential buyers which would otherwise not normally be apparent. On a rating scale of 1 to 5 I give JKV Aviation 5+.”
L.M. of Channel Islands – December 2022
"I asked John to help find a buyer for my Piper Arrow as I knew that he had a good reputation. His experience quickly showed with accurate advice on value and strategy for marketing and this was well judged as evidenced by how soon the enquires came in. John dealt with challenging negotiations in a most sensitive and detailed way even during a spell on holiday. I thoroughly recommend John for his professional approach and how he understands the needs of sellers and buyers."
