How We Ship
We can ship aviation parts, small and large, to nearly any destination on Earth!
We ship daily using three primary methods:
UPS and USPS
Roughly two-thirds of our inventory ships via standard parcel carriers. Rates and transit options are shown instantly at checkout.
Estes Express Freight
Most larger and heavier items ship via LTL freight. The vast majority of those shipments can also be purchased directly through the website with freight pricing calculated at checkout.
Coordinated Freight or Hot-Shot
A small percentage of oversized or uniquely shaped items require manual coordination, dedicated drivers, or containerized transport. These are the exception, not the rule.
Out of hundreds of thousands of unique items in our inventory, only a small fraction require human intervention to generate shipping pricing. Ordering online is the fastest method to get your airplane parts on the way.
Aviation Shipping Expertise
Shipping airplane parts is more complicated than it sounds, but we are really good at it – and our website is designed for it.
Shipping aircraft components requires experience. Every order is packed intelligently and securely. When a standard box will not work, we build a packaging solution specific to the part using custom foam, crates, pallets, and other specialized materials.
Whether the shipment moves parcel or freight, we apply the same care and precision.

If the item qualifies for UPS, USPS, or Estes freight, you will see:
- Real-time carrier options for the carriers your items need
- Exact shipping cost before payment

Tracking details are automatically emailed once the carrier scans your shipment.
