TestimonialsAs the proud and very happy owner of a "NEW" Piper Cherokee 6-260 from Aircraft Sales Inc., I would like to inform anyone reading this that you will not find a more honestly run, integrity driven broker of amazingly reconditioned aircraft anywhere. Hank and Matt Kozub should be recognized and praised for their exceptional enterprise. Their conduct in all aspects of business is perfomed in a manner that is seldomly encountered; and I appreciated the "Whole Process" of purchasing my aircraft. From the first phone call, to me being handed the keys, Matt Kozub treated me like I was his first and last customer. Any question was answered, and any of my concerns were quickly addressed. I was promised that "any" squawks would be fixed prior to the closing. I decided to have an annual inspection performed as my pre-buy and the three or four minor issues were taken care of by A.S.I. as promised. A much more serious squawk was discovered almost a month after the closing. All it took to get it corrected was a phone call to Matt and a half day of my time. I flew back to Ohio, where Matt had his expert staff eliminate the issue in about 3 hours. Hank bought me lunch, and they even filled my fuel tanks as compensation for my trouble. Where else can you find such dedication to excellence? The only aspect of their business that may outshine their conduct is their product. My aircraft is a strong, sound, beautiful, safe machine. I am certain that I would not have found another airplane of equal or better value. Anywhere. I sincerely urge anyone seeking to purchase a refurbished single to just make the call to Aircraft Sales Inc. Your search will end when Matt or Hank answers the phone. Francis Neville - N44130 I recently had the pleasure of purchasing one of ASI's refurbished aircraft and I have nothing but praise for Matt and his company. I am a FBO owner, and over the years I have purchased and sold airplanes for myself as well as for customers. I was impressed from the first conversation to the last one. He was refreshingly honest and wanted to tell me all he knew about the TR182 I was interested in. He knew I would be coming from over 1500 miles away and he did not want me to be disappointed, I was not. When I arrived he had made arrangements for me to do the inspection in the FBO hanger and happily supplied me with any tool I needed. I found the workmanship well above what I was hoping for. I have not seen such a good VALUE in aircraft refurbishment before. I have helped many owners over the years with updating their aircraft and we have refurbished a few ourselves. I can say I found the quality and detail superb and I would recommend if you are looking for a true "turn-key" plane then contact Matt for one of his. Clif Dyer Sundance Aviation Richland, WA N826CV To Whom it May Concern: In December 2008 I purchased a 1975 Piper Cherokee 6 300, N4384X from ASI. Since I live in Nevada and the plane was in Ohio it just wasn't in my schedule to go look at the 6 before I purchased it. I had my mechanic talk to Matt and get some detailed information about the plane and felt comfortable enough to buy it sight un-seen based on Matt Kozub and his companys word that the plane was what he said it was. When N4384X arrived in Nevada is was everything Matt said, BEAUTIFUL!! We are really enjoying flying the airplane. I would highly recommend ASI to anyone who is looking to purchase a top quality refurbished aircraft. Thanks Again Matt!! Paul Huet owner N4384X In today's fast paced, get it done quick, hope its right, world, it is truly refreshing to meet people that are still committed to doing things right and treating people fairly. That is definitely the case with the Kozubs and Aircraft Sales and Plan a Plane. I had the privilege of meeting Matt Kozub when he purchased my Cherokee 6 in August of 2008. From the first conversations and dealings that we had, I could tell that I was talking to someone of character and it was truly a refreshing experience from start to finish. When Matt purchased my plane (N15578) my partner and I had just purchased an A36. The plane was in excellent condition other than needing new interior. As I learned about Matt's business, Aircraft Sales and Plan a Plane, I asked him about doing a new interior for us on the Bonanza. Matt quoted us a good fair price and based on the pictures of the planes they had refurbished, we scheduled a time to have him start on ours. When you are talking about a car or maybe even a boat, quality is important, but when you are talking about an airplane, it is vital. Matt's professionalism and assistance in helping us make this a "better than new" airplane went beyond picking out colors and material. Matt helped us find the best parts and services on replacing plastics, seals and trouble parts. Without their knowledge, expertise and reputation in this business, this project would have undoubtedly cost us THOUSANDS more. My partner and I have already decided that the next place we purchase will be from Matt and Hank at Aircraft Sales. We would be more than happy to share our experience with anyone, anytime. Thanks, Matt! Wayne Bowling N66919 My airplane partner and I decided that, early in our search for a Cherokee 6, we wanted the safest used airplane that our money would buy. Our missions would be long cross county flights with family. Therefore, Garmin 430 was a must, but we also wanted a robust autopilot. However, mostly, we wanted the piece of mind that log books were accurate and that we could trust that engine and prop work could be trusted. We started our search for an airplane in the usual places; contoller.com, trade-a-plane, aso.com etc. Many planes seemed to be good prospects, based on equipment lists and price. We spent time and money traveling to see a few and were very close to buying one. Yet, we could not get satisfaction on several log book ommissions and walked away from the deal. Ultimately, when we decided to sign a contract to "rebuild " a C 6 with Hank and Matt, it was for piece of mind, not price. With their experience, we new that they could find the right used plane to refurbish at the right price. Because of their business model and volume, they get better pricing on engine work and painting, as well as interior and avionics than we could get on the open market. The end result is a terrific refurb, that flies great, has wonderful IFR and crosscountry capabilities, and is the envy of everyone on the flight line. Matt and Hank have stood by there product in the immediate post- buy period. My greastest endorsement of ASI and Hank and Matt is that I would buy with them again, if I had to do it over (and plan to buy with them again when I upgrade to a Piper Meridian in a few years!) Thanks Hank and Matt! You have a great company. You deserve your reputation as the premier restorers of piston singles Pete Lafferty N42CX Matt, The Cherokee 6 260 that I purchased from you last week is awesome. You guys did an amazing job, and I have been getting compliments on it all week. Thanks for flying the plane to me and spending the entire day on the prebuy. I look forward to sharing my flying experiences with you. Best, Richard Edelson N7621F Matt, Well I'm finally getting around to telling you how well we like our airplane (Saratoga N8299V). After taking delivery on July 1st '08 I just put the 100th hour on it today with absolutly no troubles. It was everything you said it was and has been a pleasure to fly. We have had nothing but compliments on the sharp paint job, luxurious interior, and decked out panel. It was a pleasure dealing with you Matt and I don't hesitate to tell everyone who asks, where she came from and who. Keep up the Good Work. Brad Berentson Matt, Thank you for your assistance in the purchase of my Piper Cherokee Six. Your professional approach to both sales and service provides a unique glimpse into how this process should be handled. During our initial discussions about the aircraft purchase, you indicated that I was really buying something special and that you would stand behind the end product without hesitation. Many people say such things in an attempt to close a deal. You, on the other hand, are a rare exception to the rule as you followed through on your promise. During the "break in" phase following my aircraft purchase, I noted a handful of issues that I asked you to address. Not only did you address the issues raised but you flew me back from Ohio to Massachusetts in a Skymaster and delivered my aircraft to Massachusetts following the resolution of the issues. Now that's service taken to a higher level and you should be commended for it. I have and will recommend you to anyone that is serious about making an investment in a aircraft they want to own for the long haul. All my best, Kristofor R. Behn N7533C Dear Matt, So sorry this has taken so long to get back to you. You certainly deserve a great testimonial from me as you have earned it. When I first called and talked to you I was still a student pilot with very little knowledge of airplanes. You probably laughed at some of the questions I asked. Long story short I am very grateful for your honesty and good deal. I finally got my ticket and fly every chance I get. For our Utah mountains the 182 has is spectacular. I guess the best testimonial would be the plane just had its first annual by our mechanic and he could not find anything wrong. For meeting a guy on the internet clear across the country, I would say we were really lucky or just plane blessed. Thank You, Robin Henrie Richfield Utah Dear Matt and Hank: Just wanted to thank you both for all the help over the years with the selling of my aircrafts and in helping me finding the right plane to fit my ever-changing needs. The enormous details involved in the complete process would have been extremely overwhelming, to say the least. You made the complete process easy and exciting from start to finish! If anyone is ever looking to buy or sell a plane, I will definitely tell them that Aircraft Sales is the Smart Choice! Thanks for getting me back into the pilot seat, without any of the hassle! Sincerely, T.J. Poelking Dayton, Ohio 937-371-4096 Dear Matt, I am one happy camper! I wanted to let others, who are thinking about purchasing an airplane from you to know about my experience. I just got my check ride about a month before contacting Pristine Air. I was lucky enough to see one of your restored airplanes come into my airport in Apple Valley, California. What I saw was a late model airplane that looked like it just came off the show room floor. Quality paint job, leather interior and updated avionics, GPS, auto pilot....and then I began calling around and found 2-3 other dealers in California who already knew of Pristine aircraft and had nothing but good things to say about Matt Kozub's business, excellent reputation, father/son company who really pleases his customers. When I flew back to Ohio- witnessed the annual inspection being done on the plane, I was truly put at ease in the process of buying a quality used airplane. If anyone wants to contact me regarding any questions please contact me at (706) 948-4661. Very Sincerely, Michael Hinton Dear Matt, So sorry this has taken so long to get back to you. You certainly deserve a great testimonial from me as you have earned it. When I first called and talked to you I was still a student pilot with very little knowledge of airplanes. You probably laughed at some of the questions I asked. Long story short I am very grateful for your honesty and good deal. I finally got my ticket and fly every chance I get.

Thank You, Robin Henrie Richfield Utah Matt: I wanted to take a moment to thank you for all your efforts in support of the purchase of 'Toga 8427C. From the initial inquiry, to the first visit, and throughout the process, your professionalism, timeliness and customer service made a potentially challenging process of plane purchase, from a remote location, a fairly simple one. Clearly, you represent an impressive example of a representative of a company who puts the customer first, provides an excellent product, and is open to creative solutions to logistical issues. I would and have recommended you without hesitation to colleagues who are searching for their aircraft from a reputable dealer. Kind regards, Bert WELL, WHERE SHOULD I BEGIN. THE EASY PURCHASE, THE GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE, THE DOING WHAT THEY SAY THEY ARE GOING TO DO. I WILL KEEP THIS SHORT AND SWEET, MATT AND HANK SELL QUALITY PLANES AT MATCHING PRICES AND THEY WILL ALWAYS BACK THEIR PRODUCT. I PURCHASED A 1975 CHEROKEE 6/ 300 AND IT TURNS HEADS EVERYWHERE I GO. THE QUALITY OF THE PLANE IS SECOND TO NONE AND IF YOU PLACE THE PLANE NEXT TO A NEW ONE YOU WOULD HAVE A HARD TIME TELLING THE DIFFERENCE. I CAN ASSURE YOU I WILL BE BACK FOR MY UPGRADE IN A FEW YEARS AND WILL ONLY DEAL WITH MATT AND HANK. BRIAN THOMPSON WINTHROP, MA In June of 2007 I purchased a PA32-300R from Matt and Hank at A.S.I. I spotted this particular airplane early in my search for my first aircraft and loved everything about it! I was reluctant however, because like most I wasn't sure that this was the correct airplane for me. I spent another month or so looking for another airplane with my broker. The Lance we purchased from ASI was all but forgotten. My broker and I chased lead after lead, but ultimately the chase always ended in a dead end. Just about the time I was ready to give up, I received a telephone call from Matt. He told me that airplane that I liked was still available and that I should make the trip to see the airplane in person. Wow! Was I impressed. Not only was the airplane spectacular, but Matt and Hank were great to work with. I would like to say they have become my friends. Our pre-buy went smooth and everything was found to be exactly as advertised. The two minor issues I found with the airplane were fixed before we took delivery! The best service I could expect...period. I am so pleased with my new aircraft; when the time comes when I just have to have a newer, faster model, Matt will be the first one I call. Our experience was as good as they get and my broker was impressed. My airplane turns heads and brings many compliments my way. I feel great about my purchase, and I am sure you will feel the same way. Christopher Hutchinson VP, ExportBoxes.com Florence, SC PA32-300R N4323F To Whom It May Concern: In March of 2007 I purchased a Cherokee 6 from Matt Kozub and Aircraft Sales Inc. This was my 3rd aircraft purchase and I found it to be my best experience yet! Matt is very professional and carries through with his word. My experience in dealing with Matt in both pre and post delivery was easy, he kept me well informed and everything was completed in the time-frame promised. Since this was my first Cherokee 6, I had questions regarding this type of aircraft and Matt was able to address all of my questions with a professional expertise. I will look to Matt for future purchases and I will be recommending Aircraft Sales Inc. to my pilot friends and family. Todd Meyer Omaha, NE Dear Matt, We are 3 partners in our 182Q that we picked up from Aircraft Sales on Octover 31, 2005. We had each owned a plane previously, so we had a specific list of the equipment and quality of the plane that we wanted to buy. We looked for months and were amazed at the amount of work (time, money and probably aggravation) that would have been required to bring the planes we saw up to the standards that we wanted. Then we met Matt and our search was over. He had a plane that was partially refurbished and not yet sold. We were able to pick our exterior and interior colors, the equipment list, and other extras that we wanted installed on our plane. It was an effortless process. We are based in Fort Myers, Fl and since the purchase have flown the plane about 350 hours including trips to the Bahamas, Georgia and New Jersey. Since purchasing the plane we have only had to spend money on routine maintenance and adding additional equipment. The plane flies great and performs flawlessly, If we decide to buy another plane in the future, all we will do is call Mattt - place our order- and wait for delivery. Nancy Moore Bill Traum Charles Massie N7577S DEAR MATT, AS YOU KNOW I AM A NEW PILOT, MY FIRST PLANE. I ALWAYS KNEW I WOULD FEEL MORE COMFORTABLE IN MY OWN PLANE. I WAS WARNED BY EVERY EXPERIENCED PILOT I KNEW TO NEVER BUY FROM A BROKER OR AIRCRAFT SALES PERSON. THEY SUGGESTED I BUY FROM A PRIVATE OWNER. WELL,YOUR PA-32 300 CAUGHT MY EYE. IT WAS WHAT I WAS LOOKING FOR. BOY,WERE MY FRIENDS WRONG. BUYING MY FIRST PLANE FROM YOU WAS A WONDERFUL EXPERIENCE. I CAN'T SAY THAT I HAVE EVER BOUGHT A CAR WHERE THE SALE WENT SO WELL. YOUR PERSONALITY AND EXPERIENCE AND OF COURSE THE QUALITY PLANES YOU SELL MAKE IT A REAL JOY. MY PILOT FRIENDS HAVE TO EAT THEIR OWN WORDS. IN FACT THEY ARE NOW REFERRING NEW AND OLD PILOTS TO YOU IN THE FUTURE. I AM TRULY A HAPPY CUSTOMER. THANKS, DR. ED GONZALEZ |
