Lane Aviation is an absolute treasure. You will immediately notice their love for aviation as soon as you walk in through the door. The smiling faces that greet you, the professionalism of their team, and the company's history will absolutely blow you away. Lane is providing the outstanding service that the other FBOs say that only they can offer, but they always seem to fall short. Keep up the great work Lane Aviation, I am looking forward to coming back again soon!

I'm the passenger not the pilot. But I can speak to the cleanliness of the facility and the friendliness and helpfulness of everyone I met there. Doug at the door and Dave on the ramp were especially warm and welcoming. Dave - good luck with your knee.replacement next month. Highly recommend Lane Aviation!

Great Experience! This was my first purchase of an airplane and it was very good. Brad was very patient during the process, helping me get everything needed to complete the purchase. Very good to work with someone who has so much Experience

Brad was the broker on a plane I wanted to buy. He was fantastic to deal with, very professional, and he made what’s normally a complicated and sometimes painful experience a pleasure. I’ve recommended him to friends and will continue to do so. Highly recommend!

My husband and I were very happy with our experience at Lane Aviation with Brad Willette. When we told our mechanic who the plane was listed with, he stated "he a stand-up guy who's been in the industry a long time." That statement definitely reassured us throughout the process. Brad is highly experienced and knowledgeable. He answered all of our questions and was extremely responsive which is exactly what you want!

Outstanding professionalism in everything this FBO provides. As a former base customer, aircraft sales customer, and transient customer over the years, I cannot stress enough how well this organization executes. From line service, to customer service, aircraft sales, and administration, Lane Aviation never disappoints. Thank you to the entire team for providing a shinning example of how to do it right for al things general aviation.
