Testimonials

I spent almost two years trying to find and buy a Cessna 182 myself without success before I found and contacted Gerrit Uttecht with Alpha Zulu Aviation.  In speaking with other pilots, I was told by many they had been looking for years as well with no success.

Once Gerrit became my personal Aircraft Broker, I was in the perfect plane for me and at my price range within approximately three months!  Gerrit was a tremendous help in finding the right plane, reviewing log books, scheduling inspections, negotiating price with the seller, and handling the escrow process and actual sales transition.  During the whole process I truly felt Gerrit had my best interest in mind.  His knowledge of the type of aircraft I was interested in buying was truly remarkable and his advice and guidance were invaluable.  Gerrit was also able to recommend a mechanic to perform the annual inspections that I feel very confident and comfortable with and at a very reasonable price.  Gerrit even flew to California to pick up the plane for me and delivered it to my home airport for me in Arizona.

I would highly recommend, without hesitation, Gerrit Uttecht with Alpha Zulu Aviation for anyone who is looking to buy an aircraft.  To this day I feel incredibly grateful to have met Gerrit and for his help in my Aircraft Purchase.

“If AZA ever needs a recommendation, we’re it!”

Fred and Marion E, Paradise Valley, AZ

“Having AZA manage my Cirrus made owning an airplane easy. GPS and chart updates, maintenance hassles. All I had to do was show up to a clean, ready-to-fly airplane. And when it came time to sell, they handled the transaction seamlessly from beginning to end. I really appreciated all of the friendly, professional service I received from Alpha Zulu Aviation.”

Mike D, Mesa, AZ

“Purchasing my airplane from AZA was a breath of fresh air. I called on multiple companies and AZA went above and beyond in every aspect of the transaction. They were very responsive and accommodating to any issue or request to ensure both parties were satisfied. The aircraft condition was accurately represented which was critical to my buying sight-unseen. Once the plane was mine, I hired AZA to deliver it to my home airport. The ferry was timely and professional with regular updates on the flights progress. Many thanks to Alpha Zulu Aviation! I would recommend you to anyone buying or selling an airplane.”

“It’s been a real pleasure flying my Cessna Cardinal home with you. Aside from seeing a big part of the United States of America, I had a very informative time flying with you. Your professionalism, and thorough flight planning were amazing. It all showed only one thing; a highly experienced pilot, flying a private aircraft like you’ve flown it for thousands of hours.

With our flight, I started off aircraft ownership on the right foot. By learning my airplane’s systems and capacity, I clearly saw that you often fly more recent or faster aircraft but that you really know how to appreciate and use the best of such of a classic aircraft as my Cessna 177B. Everything was perfect and on time, that is what a great trip is made of. I wouldn’t hesitate to give you my highest recommendation. My next aircraft will definitely be purchased and ferried through your services (still aiming for that Corvallis TT with G1000 we talked about). Thanks again for the great experience!”

“My experience with Alpha Zulu aviation can only be described as extraordinary. From day one, my instructor helped me customize a training schedule that would not only help me through my transition training to a Cirrus SR-22, but would also help me cover time in type for insurance purposes as well as ferrying the plane to Central America in a cost-efficient way. He was a great instructor and it was a trip that I’ll never forget, and while I enjoyed traveling around, I learned invaluable skills that I still use every time I fly…”
