Smit Aviation

Smit Aviation is a privately owned private aviation brokerage. According to its website, it was founded on 14 June 2010 and is still run by its founders. The site lists contacts in the United States (a South Florida area code) and India, but gives no street address.

Its listed services are aircraft sales and consignment, acquisition help, leasing, aircraft management and brokerage, private jet charter, and consulting and technical oversight. The site refers to turboprops, light jets and long-range jets in general terms but names no aircraft or fleet.

The site does not say whether the company operates aircraft under its own certificate. Flyers should treat it as a broker and ask for the operator's details on any charter quote. Buyers and sellers should ask for references and a written brokerage agreement.
