Our Company:

I have been interested in starting my own business for many years and I'm excited to finally have reached that goal.

As a pilot, I have used many pilot supplies myself. I first got the idea of starting a pilot shop a few years ago when searching for a flight bag at my local pilot shop. Not being able to find the quality I was looking for I consulted a local luggage shop owner. I was able to find quality, but not at a reasonable price.

By starting an online store (and not having a brick and mortar store), dealing directly with manufacturers, I determined I could supply products much cheaper than my competitors, in many circumstances. Some manufacturers do set a minimum price at which I can sell their product.
