"We contracted John Swartz to assist our company to sell our Hawker 850XP, and also to acquire a Gulfstream 280. This buy/sell transaction progressed into an extremely smooth process, and when a potential situation came up, John handled it with knowledge, experience and professionalism. Swartz Aviation Group was there every step of the way, and I would highly recommend them to anyone needing an aircraft broker. We will not hesitate to use them again."

“Most brokers disappear once the deal closes. Swartz stayed fully engaged — coordinating post-closing logistics, following up on open maintenance items, and assisting with onboarding and training referrals. Their support didn’t end at the finish line; they ensured we were set up for long-term success. Swartz Aviation redefines what it means to be a trusted aircraft advisor.”
