Aviation professional with a passion for first class, high quality pilot services and aircraft operations. I hold a FAA ATP with over 5,600 hours flight time, BD-700, HS-125, LR-JET and CL-65 type ratings and an excellent record of proficiency and safety. Flying is my passion and it shows. I plan early and think about the A to Z aspects of the flight operation to fruition. Safety is the first focus on every trip. Mitigating problems before they become big issues is something that I am adept at finding. I pride myself on being good at what I do and take advantage of as many learning possibilities as I can. I am a Certified Flight Instructor and aviation speaker having given many lectures on aviation. With today's fast-paced, sometimes confusing aviation market it takes a skilled aviation professional to know the difference between a good deal vs. a good decision. My background in aviation gives me ample exposure to all the risks that owners and operators take with their aircraft. My skill set is to elucidate the fine print, set the standards and define expectations for corporate owners so complete transparency exists between owners and their flying endeavors.
