A pilot’s experience behind every deal

Howarth Aviation grew out of a love of flying and one simple belief: every client’s journey deserves more than an off-the-shelf answer. It was founded by David Howarth, whose over 27 years in aviation take in flying, instructing, running flight operations and selling aircraft, and it brings a hands-on, client-first approach to every sale and purchase.

Dave started out in the cockpit and went on to serve as Chief Flying Instructor, Chief Pilot, Operations Director and Aircraft Sales Director. Having seen the industry from all sides, he set up Howarth Aviation to offer honest, expert advice shaped around each client.

  • Chief Flying Instructor
  • Chief Pilot
  • Operations Director
  • Aircraft Sales Director

Since it began, Howarth Aviation has worked with aircraft owners, first-time buyers, family offices, discerning private clients and companies. Whether we’re selling an aircraft promptly for the best price or finding the right jet, helicopter, turboprop or piston aircraft, the aim is the same: to turn your plans into reality.

An aircraft gives you freedom and control over your own time. For clients across Africa and beyond, our job is to put that within reach.
