About Us

TRADEWIND INTERNATIONAL, LLC, is not associated with any other company, and is a small, veteran-owned business of ten employees, specializing in the purchase and resale of aircraft parts and accessories. Tradewind International, LLC, does not employ certified technicians to overhaul, inspect, (excluding receiving and shipping inspections), repair or test aircraft parts or accessories in any manner.


Our secure 19,000 square foot facility includes offices, a heated hangar and a heated warehouse specifically built for the purpose of receiving, storing and shipping aircraft parts and accessories.


Our inventory has been obtained from a variety of reputable sources, and includes the purchase of excess inventories, and consignments from FAA Part 145 operators. Our inventory includes New (NE), Overhauled (OH), Serviceable (SV) and As Removed (AR) aircraft parts and accessories.


Our extensive library of illustrated parts catalogs (IPC) is used for the identification of parts and accessories. When entering items into our inventory, the purchase order and source of each item is verified, and the part number and condition are verified. All items are digitally photographed, and available trace documents are scanned. Inventory items and their available trace documents are then stored in our secure warehouse until needed. Quantum is used for managing our inventory.


Quote requests include pictures of the item quoted, and scans of the available trace documents to help our clients make informed purchasing decisions. Available trace documents are included with all items sold. All shipments are subject to inspection and acceptance of the purchaser upon receipt. We maintain sales invoices for a minimum of seven calendar years.


Although we are not a licensed distributor, nor a government-certified repair center, nor a certified manufacturer, we do strive to properly control the acceptance, storage, and shipment of aircraft parts and accessories in a manner acceptable to the industry we serve.
