Courtesy Aircraft Sales

“Quality Warbird and Civilian Aircraft Sales Since 1957”.

Gauntlet Warbirds is pleased to be affiliated with Courtesy Aircraft Sales. Courtesy Aircraft was founded in 1957, by D.M. Clark, as a new Cessna aircraft dealer, and grew through the 60's to include Piper and Champion (Citabria) dealerships.

In the early 70's, due to the knowledge and enthusiasm of the founder’s son, Mark Clark, today an accomplished pilot and A&P mechanic, Courtesy Aircraft found itself heavily involved in sales of a new market - Warbirds. It was in the success of the Warbird aircraft market that pointed the way to the firm’s current position as undisputed World Leader in WWII Warbird Sales.

In the early 80's, Mark purchased the company from his father and relocated to a 13,000 square foot facility conveniently located at the Greater Rockford Airport in Rockford, Illinois.

Celebrating 50 years in business, nearly half the history of powered flight, Courtesy has sold and delivered over 3,000 aircraft and look forward to continuing their tradition of excellence in the sales of both Warbirds and civilian aircraft.
