What is MarketplaceAviation?

MarketplaceAviation (marketplaceaviation.com) is a free worldwide online marketplace for buying and selling used aircraft, helicopters, ultralights, business jets, light sport aircraft (LSA), gyrocopters, gliders, seaplanes, and aviation parts. Founded in 2026 by five Italian aviators, the platform was built by pilots for pilots — with no listing fees, no commission, and secure built-in messaging between buyers and sellers.

Is MarketplaceAviation really free to use?

Yes, listing and browsing on MarketplaceAviation is 100% free. You can publish unlimited free listings with up to 2 photos, with no time limit and no commission on the sale. There are no subscriptions, no hidden fees. Optionally, you can boost a single aircraft listing or part with a one-time fee to feature it on the home page and at the top of search results: Standard (4.90 EUR, 7 days + 4 photos) or Premium (19.90 EUR, 30 days + 7 photos).

What types of aircraft can I buy or sell on MarketplaceAviation?

MarketplaceAviation accepts all 15 categories of civil aircraft: piston singles (Cessna, Piper, Cirrus), piston twins (Baron, Seneca, DA62), turboprops (TBM, King Air, PC-12), business jets (Citation, Phenom, Learjet), turbine and piston helicopters (Bell, Robinson R22/R44/R66, Airbus, AW139), gyrocopters, light sport aircraft (LSA), ultralights/microlights, gliders and sailplanes, seaplanes, amphibious aircraft and warbird/military aircraft.

Can I sell aviation parts and equipment on MarketplaceAviation?

Yes. In addition to complete aircraft, you can list aviation parts and equipment for free including: aircraft engines (Lycoming, Continental, Rotax), propellers, avionics (Garmin GPS, transponders, ADS-B), instruments, landing gear, safety equipment (parachutes, ELT), and MRO maintenance services. Parts can be boosted exactly like aircraft, with the same Standard and Premium options.

How do I contact a seller on MarketplaceAviation?

After creating a free account, you can use the built-in secure messaging system to contact any seller directly. Each conversation is tied to a specific aircraft or part listing, so the discussion stays organized, and sellers are notified by email. Registered users can also see the seller's phone number on aircraft listings. For your safety, never pay outside the platform and never click payment links sent in a chat.

What countries does MarketplaceAviation cover?

MarketplaceAviation is a global platform open to buyers and sellers from every country. Listings come from sellers in Europe, North America and beyond, and prices can be published in USD, EUR, GBP and other currencies. The site interface is in English.

How does the Featured Listing boost work?

When you boost an aircraft listing or a part, it appears in the Featured section of the home page, which shows only boosted items, and at the top of search results and category pages, with a Sponsored badge. The Standard plan (4.90 EUR) keeps it featured for 7 days, the Premium plan (19.90 EUR) for 30 days. When the boost expires, it leaves the home page and returns to standard position, but permanently keeps the extra photos unlocked. Payment is a one-time fee via Stripe, with no subscription.

Who created MarketplaceAviation?

MarketplaceAviation was founded in 2026 by a group of five Italian aviators who met at Aeroclub Serristori in Arezzo, Tuscany. Three of them hold a PPL (Private Pilot Licence), the other two — including Daniele Forciniti, the developer — hold a VDS licence (Volo da Diporto o Sportivo) for ultralights. The team is now distributed between Italy and Spain.

How does MarketplaceAviation protect users from scams?

Automatic checks limit how many new sellers an account can contact in a short time and flag first messages that try to move the conversation off the platform, for example with email addresses, links or WhatsApp. Accounts that break the Community Guidelines are suspended and their listings are hidden. Users should never pay outside the platform, never click payment links sent in a chat, and should see the aircraft or part and its documents before paying. The full rules are at marketplaceaviation.com/community-guidelines.
