AirFleet Capital is a privately owned general aviation aircraft financing company in the United States. We were founded in 1994 by Steve Smestad, a private pilot and aircraft owner. We have become a leading aircraft financing company by delivering the most competitive rates, exceptional service, and maintaining absolute satisfaction with our customers. Due to our efforts, AirFleet has become one of the largest aircraft financing originators in the United States.

Our staff is committed to making your aviation adventure the smoothest and most enjoyable experience possible. We have over 8,600 aircraft under our belt, so we have the knowledge and experience to coordinate all aspects of your purchase. We work directly with The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), insurance firms, title and escrow companies, and sales organizations to ensure a smooth transition of ownership and accurate FAA records.

AirFleet Capital also supports aircraft manufacturers and sales organizations by continuously working with leaders to support the buyers changing needs. We have a long history providing financial support to aircraft manufacturers and sales organizations.

As a company, we pride ourselves in being very active in the industry. This is achieved by attending trade events, speaking to owner groups, as well as meeting face-to-face with customers. All this is done to support general aviation and keep our fingers on the pulse with our buyers.

The best compliment we have ever received came from an industry salesperson, who said, “You all understand our customer because you are our customer!”

We would appreciate the opportunity to share in your journey and help make your purchase as easy and enjoyable as possible. Our smart approach to aircraft buyers, sellers, and lenders uniquely aligns with the goals of all parties who share our passion for the generation aviation community.
