Meet the founder
Ole Miss · Computer Science
Commercial multi-engine pilot
My name is Zach Purdy. I'm an Ole Miss computer science graduate and a commercial pilot with a multi-engine rating. Aviation has always been more than a professional interest for me—it is an industry I genuinely want to understand, contribute to, and build my future around.
I started Purdy Aviation to combine my aviation experience with the research, organization, and problem-solving skills I developed through computer science. My mission is to make buying or selling an aircraft feel clear, personal, and manageable.
That means listening carefully, communicating honestly, and taking the time to understand each client's aircraft and goals. Every transaction is an opportunity to serve a client well, strengthen my knowledge of the aircraft market, and build lasting relationships throughout the aviation community.
What an aircraft broker does
An aircraft broker serves as the buyer's or seller's representative and central point of contact. The role covers market research, aircraft comparisons, communications, due diligence, negotiation, and the many deadlines required to reach closing.
Specialized work remains with qualified maintenance facilities, aviation attorneys, escrow and title companies, insurers, and tax advisors. Purdy Aviation coordinates those parties so the client has a clear view of the transaction and the decisions ahead.
Services
Buyer representation begins with the mission: typical trips, passengers, runway needs, budget, and ownership goals. Suitable aircraft are sourced and compared before inspections, records review, negotiations, and closing are coordinated.
Seller representation combines market-supported pricing, thoughtful presentation, buyer qualification, showings, offer management, and transaction oversight through delivery.
Objective market context helps owners and prospective buyers evaluate value, timing, operating costs, and realistic alternatives before deciding to transact.
How it works
A confidential conversation establishes the aircraft, mission, budget, timing, and desired level of support.
Clear priorities, representation terms, and a practical acquisition or sales plan are established.
Market research or aircraft marketing, inquiries, specialist coordination, and negotiations are managed in one place.
Inspections, documents, escrow, title, delivery, and final details are tracked through completion.
