Sellers love ASA for our quick and easy disposition of their airborne assets, while buyers trust ASA as a source for aircraft that exemplify pride of ownership.
ASA is a dealer – not a broker. We buy our own aircraft, maintaining exacting control over our inventory, which means we are able to offer our buyers extremely competitive deals with NO exclusivity agreements and NO confusing negotiations—just direct communication and easy closings.
Simply put, we make buying a jet easy.
