In my dealings with Sport Aircraft…

In my dealings with Sport Aircraft sales as a buyer, I found Nicholas fantastic to deal with. It involved genuine and sincere conversations with a total absence of any sales pressure. All of my many questions and queries - throughout the entire lifecycle of purchase and post-settlement/ferrying were promptly, enthusiastically, professionally and comprehensively answered.

The benefits of the assistance in the context of interstate purchase with COVID restrictions, ultimately led to the completion of purchase in circumstances where in the absence of a broker it would likely have faltered. For all of the above reasons, I have no hesitation in recommending Sport Aircraft Sales to prospective sellers and purchasers. Thanks - Nicholas!

Nicholas from Light Aircraft Sails made the whole process of selling our aircraft a breeze. We received the amount we asked for, the sale took place within a couple of weeks of listing and the best part, no tyre kickers just two genuine buyers referred.
Don't waste your time trying to do this yourself, remember the old saying "surround yourself with experts", in the aircraft sales business Nicholas is certainly an expert.

Excellent service

Great service from the start. Sold my aircraft to a happy buyer in a matter of a couple of weeks, A difficult assignment when I live in South Africa and my plane was in Australia. Seamless process throughout.,Nicholas gave me an honest assessment of the market values and came in just over that price with a fair offer from a genuine buyer. Could not be happier with the whole interaction. Highly recommend

Light Aircraft Sales your go to for buying an aircraft

Nicholas was fantastic to work with to buy our Cessna 172N. He was professional throughout and worked hard to get the best result and take us step by step through the process having never been aircraft owners before.
Would thoroughly recommend him as a broker to help you find and secure an aircraft.

Nicholas has been great to deal with!!

Nicholas has been great to deal with. He helped guide us through a comfortable and mostly stress free experience throughout the selling process. He was honest and worked efficiently to communicate and find buyers for our late fathers aircraft's. In the end we achieved a realistic price for them and most importantly we are happy they will be going to good homes. I would not hesitate to recommend him.

I was fortunate to list with Nicholas...

I was very fortunate to list my aircraft with Nicholas.

Everyone else I spoke to about “potentially” selling my aircraft seemed to have no real plan to market it and a pre-conceived idea on what price I should accept. Nicholas was the opposite, he was very descriptive of the aircraft and included as many photos as I could give him, thus providing any potential purchaser with as much information as possible - in a very professional manner.

The result was quick and on point and whilst I already miss my aircraft, I know that Nicholas did everything he could do to secure a good sale.

Thanks again Nicholas for a great experience and a great result.

Couldn’t wish for a better experience. Nicholas is a great operator and very professional, either buying or selling you can’t be in better hands.
