Lear Stevens Aviation Services

Lear Stevens Aviation Services is an aircraft sales and brokerage company. Its headquarters are at Hampton Roads Executive Airport in Chesapeake, Virginia. It also has a satellite location at Jacksonville Executive at Craig Airport in Florida. The company says it was incorporated in 2006.

The owners are Thomas N. Stevens and Judith R. Lear. The site says they share more than 60 years of aviation experience. The team also includes associate agents, and each person on the contact list has a mobile number.

The company helps both buyers and sellers. Services listed on the site include representation in an aircraft purchase or sale, and certified aircraft value appraisals. It also helps with title searches, closings, title transfers, financing and insurance. Pre-purchase inspections are done by FAA certified mechanics. Tom Stevens, who is a flight instructor, also gives bi-annual flight reviews, endorsements and time and type training.

The company says it can do maintenance inspections and repairs through airline and general aviation mechanics who hold FAA certificates.

The website points visitors to its aircraft for sale. The list is kept current through Trade-a-Plane, and each plane has photos and specifications. A page also explains why selling a plane alone takes time, such as answering calls, replying to emails and paying for advertising. The company says its agents handle that work for sellers. Contact is by phone or email, and the company is also on Facebook.
