Whether you're looking to rent a spot or own a hangar outright, Josh can help you find options at Colorado Air and Spaceport and nearby Front Range airports, and know what to ask before you sign.

About Josh

A pilot and owner, on your side of the deal.

Josh Schwartz started Timberline Aircraft to bring a pilot's eye and an owner's experience to every sale and purchase.

He has logged about 1,000 hours as a pilot. He holds single- and multi-engine ratings, an instrument rating and a tailwheel endorsement, and he has owned seven aircraft of his own. Buying, flying, maintaining and selling an airplane aren't abstract to him; he's done each of them himself.

That's why Josh personally guides every transaction, from the first conversation to closing, and why he'll always tell you what he'd want to know if it were his own money on the line.
