## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.
Actors are written with capital "A".

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.
The best way to integrate Actors is as follows.

In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md):

```bash
npm install apify-client
```

In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md):

```bash
pip install apify-client
```

In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md):

````bash
# MacOS / Linux
curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash
# Windows
irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex
```bash

In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md).

If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

### Who is it for

- Aircraft brokers and dealers building prospect and inventory lists
- Aviation finance, insurance and MRO teams sourcing owners and operators
- Market analysts tracking make, model, price and hours across the used market
- Anyone comparing aircraft prices and availability at scale

### How to use it

1. Add one or more searches to **Search Queries** - a make, model or type such as `Cessna 172`, `Piper`, `Cirrus SR22`, `Helicopter`, `Jet` or `Warbird`.
2. Set **Max Aircraft To Scrape** to cap how many listings you want across the whole run.
3. Run the actor and export the results to JSON, CSV or Excel, or pull them from the API.

You are only ever charged for real aircraft records that are returned. An empty run costs nothing.

### FAQ

**Can I search several makes at once?** Yes. Search Queries is a list, so one run can cover many makes, models or types.

**Do I need a login, cookies or proxies?** No. Everything is handled internally - just add your searches and run.

**Are phone numbers and emails included?** Contact name, dealer or brokerage name and location are always captured, plus a direct link to the listing's contact form. Phone and email are included only when the listing exposes them publicly.

**What formats can I export?** JSON, CSV or Excel, or straight from the API.

### About

Built by [scrapers.lat](https://scrapers.lat). This actor is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by any listing site or aircraft marketplace. It collects only publicly available information and is intended for lawful use in line with applicable terms and regulations.

# Actor input Schema

## `searchQueries` (type: `array`):

One or more aircraft searches to run in a single run. Use a make, model or type, e.g. "Cessna 172", "Piper", "Cirrus SR22", "Helicopter", "Jet", "Warbird". Each query is matched to its category and returns matching aircraft for sale.
## `maxAircraft` (type: `integer`):

Maximum number of aircraft listings to collect across all searches in this run.
## `fetchDetails` (type: `boolean`):

On by default. Opens each listing to capture the complete description, the seller's phone number when they publish it in the ad, and the full photo set. Turn off for a faster, summary-only run.
## `enrichContacts` (type: `boolean`):

Optional paid add-on, off by default. For each result without an email, attempt to find a public business contact email and a contact person's name. Billed per attempt, plus an extra charge only when an email is found.
## `enrichContactsMax` (type: `integer`):

Cap how many results the add-on tries to enrich, to control add-on cost. Leave empty to attempt all. Free Apify accounts are capped at 3.

## Actor input object example

```json
{
  "searchQueries": [
    "Cessna 172",
    "Piper"
  ],
  "maxAircraft": 30,
  "fetchDetails": true,
  "enrichContacts": false,
  "enrichContactsMax": 50
