Our Experts
Chuck SmithChuck Smith – Partner – Widely regarded as the foremost authority on the Beechcraft King Air series, Chuck Smith followed his passion and founded C&J Aviation in 1988. Despite building a successful and thriving career in industrial real estate, this veteran sales professional “changed course” after playing a key role in establishing Santa Monica’s Museum of Flying. His experience and client base with Warbirds quickly evolved to the turboprop and jet markets, wher he has assisted with over 500 transactions. “The key to success in this business, whether you are buying or selling,” Chuck tells clients, “is market intelligence.”
A pilot with over 8,000 hours of flight time in over 40 types of aircraft, Chuck’s expertise in aviation is unparalleled. His prior experience owning an aircraft maintenance facility for over 10 years has also given Chuck a special understanding of aircraft maintenance that he leverages for our clients. Sought after by many for his advice on King Airs and Warbirds, Chuck’s expertise has now expanded to include mid-to-large cabin business jets too.
