Gear

Buying Guides

Our goal at Executive Flyers is to provide the most thorough and unbiased information, so our readers can make the right choice when it comes to products.

From headsets and flight bags to navigation tools and avionics that pilots and aircraft owners use and depend on, we offer in-depth buying guides that take into account the latest technology and trends in the aviation industry.

As it can be hard to make the right choice when there are so many options out there, our recommendations are based on our own extensive research, testing, and experience to ensure that only the best products are recommended.

Our buying guides also include comparison tables, so you can compare all the important specs and features of a product without having to spend time researching this information yourself.

How Products are Rated

We realize that buyers have different requirements, which is why we recommend products that fulfill different criteria and purposes.

For an aviation headset, a student pilot or passenger will have different requirements (and certainly budget constraints) to a commercial pilot.

Aviation radios come with navigation and just comm options, with buyers often having a preference for the former or latter.

Even when it comes to something as simple as a logbook, some will prefer one with hundreds of pages, while others just want something with 50 pages.

This is all taken into account when recommending products.

Occasionally, if you click on one of the links within an article, we may receive a small commission if you go ahead and purchase something. However, we never let this influence our recommendations or receive any other form of compensation for our recommendations.
