Expect-and Get-More From Duncan Aviation Aircraft Sales & Acquisitions
Through the years, the company has developed a solid reputation as one of the best nose-to-tail business aircraft service and support organizations in the world. Along the way, we have continued to provide great value in the areas of aircraft sales and acquisitions.
As the aircraft transaction process has evolved over the last few decades, the resources Duncan Aviation has amassed on the service side provide a unique advantage to our aircraft sales clients. Technological advancements in aircraft have accelerated and transaction complexity has increased. Overall, selling and buying aircraft is more demanding, takes longer, and involves many more moving pieces and potential financial risks than at any other time in history. This means brokerage clients need greater technical and transactional support.
When the time comes to explore the selling or acquisition of an aircraft, think about the following advantages Duncan Aviation can provide.
Duncan Aviation was founded in 1956 as an aircraft sales organization.

Support Beyond the Transaction
“In today’s business environment, aircraft sales clients deserve more, require more, and expect more from their broker or acquisition agent. I recently joined the Duncan Aviation Aircraft Sales and Acquisitions team because they are backed by all the resources clients expect–and more.”
