US Aircraft Finance, LLC (USAF or the “Company”), a nationally recognized leader in light aircraft lending, has been acquired by AMF Holdings, LLC (AMF). The Company, having generated over $400 million in loan value since inception, provides loan origination, servicing and insurance-related services to customers on a nationwide basis.
Founded in 1998, USAF is an independent full service, national direct aircraft finance company headquartered in Richmond, VT, that serves the business owners and professionals who use the aircraft for both business and personal purposes.
Until his recent passing, USAF was led by its founder, David Savoie, a decorated 22-year US Air Force veteran, a former commercial banking officer, and an accomplished and avid pilot. BaldwinClarke’s relationship (via its investment banking division Baldwin & Clarke Corporate Finance, LLC) with David and USAF spanned over two decades, having proudly supported the planning and funding of their startup through the successful exit to its management team and new ownership.
BaldwinClarke was pleased to represent USAF’s shareholders as they sought to find a well-suited new owner that could carry on the Company’s tradition of excellent service to owners and operators of single engine and light twin engine aircraft.
