Why Eric Spitzer Calls Aero & Marine Tax Professionals a Smart Investment for Sales and Use Tax Savings.

When it comes to navigating complex tax exemptions for aircraft purchases, Eric Spitzer, owner of Spitzer Helicopter Leasing, knows exactly where to turn. Having worked with Aero & Marine Tax Professionals multiple times, he firmly believes their services are well worth the investment.

“I wouldn’t have done it five times in a row if I didn’t think it was worth it,” Spitzer states unequivocally. “They’re saving me close to $500,000. So yeah, it’s absolutely worth it.”

He relies on Aero & Marine’s expertise. His journey with the firm dates back years, beginning with a Mooney, followed by a Citation, a Cessna 414, and multiple King Airs. Throughout these transactions, Aero & Marine Tax Professionals have been instrumental in securing tax exemptions.

Although Spitzer is no stranger to aircraft transactions—having completed over 100 purchases for his business—he prefers to leave the intricate tax tracking of his personal aircraft to the experts. “With helicopters, the cost of a mistake is much lower. But when it comes to my personal aircraft, it’s so much more money, and I just don’t want to take the chance,” he explains.

One of the key benefits Spitzer highlights is the meticulous tracking provided by Aero & Marine. “The most important part of the process is the tracking,” he says. “You’re required to complete a certain number of flights in a specific time frame and gather the necessary signatures. They track all of that for you. They make sure you stay above the required minimum for the six-month period or whichever path you’re choosing.”

For Spitzer, this level of diligence and reliability is invaluable. “Even though I could do it myself, I can focus on my business and let them handle theirs. I don’t have to worry about the tracking—they do it for me.”

His confidence in Aero & Marine Tax Professionals has only grown over time. “They’ve never missed one. I would have been surprised if it went the other direction, but it never has.” He also acknowledges the potential complications of tax reviews and audits but takes comfort in knowing that Aero & Marine’s expertise has always prevented such issues. “It’s always a relief to get the letter confirming the exemption. You don’t know what you’re going to have to go through if things get pushed, and I’ve never had that problem with them.”

Spitzer concludes with high praise for the firm’s customer service and professionalism. “Keep doing what you’re doing. Love the customer service. They’re very hospitable people. Not only will I recommend them—I have recommended them many times.”
