TESTIMONIALS

"I sold the prop that I advertised about 6 weeks ago, and I placed an ad Monday night for selling my RV7 project and sold it in 2 days after receiving about 20 enquiries." - Al Malecha located Payson, Arizona

"I have just placed a deposit on a Stearman that fits my requirements to a tee. The Stearman that I am about to pur- chase and export to Australia was never advertised for sale and the purchase was a result purely of me placing the want ad with Barn- stormers. This will make it the second aircraft that I have purchased in this fashion from the USA. Well done and thanks once again, Baroness" - Jace Harrison located Sunbury, Australia

"We know how expensive T-A-P is... we ran the ad for 3 weeks and had NO calls. From the minute I placed the Avid Flyer ad on the Barnstormers site, we began getting phone calls and emails - dozens each week. We success- fully sold the plane as parts yesterday to some- one in Canada that drove down to Michigan to buy and pick up the plane. I can't tell you how impressed with your site we are. THANK YOU!" - Susan Ashley located Allegan, Michigan
