Trade-A-Plane Serves Global Audience with Aviation’s Comprehensive Classifieds
Aviator's Comprehensive Classifieds Serve Global Audience

This week in Las Vegas, Trade-A-Plane–the “shoestring operation” that Cosby Harrison and his wife, Margaret, began in Crossville, Tenn., 76 years ago–continues as general aviation’s popular shopping guide. Born on the Harrison kitchen table, Trade-A-Plane is now a multimedia operation employing 150 people. The fourth-generation family business has expanded beyond the three-issues-a-month yellow newspaper full of aircraft, parts and equipment listings to an online resource serving a variety of industries.

Visitors to Trade-A-Plane’s Booth (No. C10230) can examine its website and pick up a complimentary issue of the paper, currently listing nearly 1,000 turbine aircraft for sale plus thousands of products and services. Also offered is a commemorative book with a collection of front cover cartoons from earlier issues.
