Turnkey Aircraft Management & Oversight

Pistons, Turboprops, & Light Jets

    • Maintenance is coordinated through trusted shops and technicians, with all inspections, annuals, oil changes, and squawk resolutions managed in a timely and thorough manner. Every item is tracked with an emphasis on FAA compliance, safety, and long-term aircraft reliability.

    • Flights are conducted with a strong emphasis on safety, professionalism, FAA compliance, and operational efficiency. When not personally flown, aircraft are operated by carefully vetted and trusted pilots to ensure consistency and peace of mind.

    • Operating costs are minimized through strategic planning, preventative maintenance, and practical, owner-focused decision-making — all while maintaining the highest standards of safety and quality.

  • From panel upgrades and performance enhancements to routine cleaning and full detailing, every aspect is carefully coordinated — from specifications to scheduling — to keep the aircraft mission-ready, well-maintained, and presentation-perfect.

    • Each flight is meticulously prepared — with the aircraft cleaned, fueled, and optionally stocked with preferred snacks and beverages. Assistance with complex itineraries, FBO preferences, and ground logistics is seamlessly provided as requested.

    • Hangar space and insurance coverage are secured and managed in alignment with the aircraft’s profile and operational needs, leveraging trusted local connections to ensure convenience and value.

    • For eligible owners, I can assist in setting up legal, FAA-compliant dry lease agreements that allow your aircraft to be leased to qualified pilots or businesses when not in use. This can help offset operational costs without compromising safety or long-term value. All lease arrangements are structured transparently, with clear documentation, liability protections, and owner oversight every step of the way.

    • Operating Limits for Reliability — To maximize reliability and protect long-term value, I generally do not recommend dry leasing a privately owned aircraft for more than 400 hours per year. Staying below this threshold helps reduce wear, downtime, and maintenance expenses while keeping the aircraft in peak condition for its owner.
