Client Reviews

When it comes to my search for the “perfect” plane, John is directing me toward the best value for my needs and skill, and remarkably has shown the patience of Job over the last year and a half. I am very discerning in my requirements, and with this being my first plane, I don’t want to find any surprises at the annual, nor in the air. His extensive knowledge of makes and models, coupled with hands-on powerplant and avionics expertise, and a keen sense of the “present day” value of aircraft, gives him top marks on my scorecard.

It is my hope that my “perfect” cross country hauler is on the horizon, and John will be advising me on all aspects.

Cessna 182

We appreciated the professional way that you handled the sale of our 182.  We were impressed by the way that you worked with the personnel at the Shenandoah Valley Airport to get the plane inspected and shown.  It was nice to have you come to our home and take care of the transaction.  We enjoyed the time we spent together.  We would highly recommend your services.

—Nelson and Nancy Adams

1984 Beechcraft King Air C90A


You did a great job advising us on the necessary inspections and repair items that needed to be performed and your oversight of those inspections and repairs was outstanding. I know it saved us dollars.  Your ability to work with the purchaser and get the airplane sold and the transaction closed within an eight week time frame is truly outstanding. Your attention to detail and preparation of all documents made it very easy for us.
   
—George Ramsey III , President/Taylor-Ramsey Corp.

It was a pleasure working with you during an aircraft change of ownership and wanted to commend you on the fine job you did for us.  You were timely and knowledgeable in helping facilitate the sale and purchase of the King Air C90A.

1976 Beechcraft Sierra & 1969 Cessna 310P

You did an outstanding job for me selling my Sierra and acquiring a Cessna 310. You were extremely detailed with understanding my aircraft, taking pictures, fielding the many phone calls we received and helping negotiate the best possible sale price in a very timely manner. You proactively marketed the aircraft geographically to insure the prospective buyers could get to the aircraft and see it without delay. Finally, your knowledge of the twin engine market helped me make the appropriate offer. I will not hesitate to use Rivanna Aircraft Sales when I sell my 310 and move up yet again in a few years.

I want to thank you very much for your assistance in selling my Turbo Saratoga. The entire experience was professional and very efficient.
