AINsight: Could There Be New Faces Popping Up?
New entrants in the business aircraft brokerage business cause concern that new buyers aren't getting the advice and wealth of expertise they require.

Every few years business aircraft market events change, sometimes only slightly and others with greater velocity. When these events occur, our industry often gets new players.

In this case, I am speaking of a new crop of preowned business aircraft sales professionals hanging up shingles. I have often discussed how aircraft sales can look sexy, lucrative, and easy from the outside. Believe me—it is the hardest work any of us have done. It is a good living, but hardly lucrative and anything but sexy.
