Contacting Chris included a site visit and photo session, pre-qualification of potential buyers, regular updates, at-will advice and hand-holding during the process.

“My airplane partner used Chris Kirk to sell his previous airplane about 9 years ago and was very happy with the experience so we reached out to Chris again when it came time to part with our beloved Skylane. Chris was very easy to deal with, clearly communicated details and was very proactive about preparing us for each step. Our workload in the process was very low. I really can't think of anything more or different I would have expected Chris to do in quickly selling our aircraft with zero drama. Good job Chris!”

“Amazing customer service, Chris and his team went above and beyond to find us the perfect airplane! Having a broker that isn’t satisfied with “good enough” was a critical component for our family’s airplane purchase. We could not be happier with our experience!”

“So very happy I chose WildBlue Aircraft Sales for airplane number eight. Chris was absolutely amazing to work with. Excellent communication, even better expectations delivery and walked me through the entire process. The video presentation of the purchase agreement was a really comforting touch when purchasing an aircraft from afar. Don’t even consider another broker for an honest and surprise free transaction. Thank you!”

“I listed my plane with Chris the first time and decided to back out of the contract as I really wasn't ready to sell, and he was completely understanding. When I finally was ready to move on...I loved my plane...Chris made a few calls to people he thought would value my plane as much as me. And it was sold before it was even listed. WildBlue made the entire transaction super easy, even for me in remote northern Montana. I never give five starts on any review as I always have one or two things that could have gone better. If you buying or selling, WildBlue will take care of you.”

“After deciding to sell my Bonanza I was referred to Chris Kirk by a flying friend who reported a positive experience with his plane sale. I found Chris to be attentive to details and provided the guidance and effort needed to put the deal together to my satisfaction. After making the difficult decision to part with my plane that had been a part of my life for 26 years, Chris and WildBlue made the sale a positive experience and I would recommend him without reservation.”

“WildBlue has completely streamlined the process of helping buy and sell aircraft. So to say it's easy on the client is an understatement. They set reasonable expectations for us and gave very good advice along the way. Our airplane sold much more quickly than we'd have ever thought. When we returned for help purchasing a new airplane, they found just the right one for us and had it under contract before the seller could even list it. They're also just good people, and that's just as important as their expertise.
My philosophy is simple: if you want it done right, find the right people to help you do it. For buying and selling airplanes, that's WildBlue.”
