Business Aviation is a VERY EFFECTIVE BUSINESS TOOL. IN FACT, WHEN DONE CORRECTLY, IT IS THE PERFECT TOOL for executives that have a need to travel efficiently.  

Business Aviation is extremely safe, requires no TSA and has the added and unique benefit that only business aircraft can offer, access to more than 5,500 airports in the US while the airlines are limited to approximately 500.  That simple fact alone makes business aircraft not only extremely efficient, but also unbelievably valuable for all executives that are required to travel. For executives, time is money.

This travel option has been available since 1959 with the introduction of the Lockheed Jet Star and became much more prolific with the development of Lear 23 in 1962.  Since 1962 many other corporate aircraft have been Introduced.  Many more were added to the executive transportation market with the advent in 1995 of the fractional (time share) and Piggyback chartering environments. 

So, for over 60 years there has been the equipment available to service a massive natural market capable of delivering immeasurable income and profits globally.  

And yet no one has been able to envision a tour de force to harness this entire market until now.  But we have it. WE HAVE THE SOLUTION.  A solution that can be done with minimal investment, zero liabilities, and zero risk.  

What we have is the solution which has been completely missed in the current $200 billion-plus-a-year business aviation ecosystem.  A $200 billion-plus environment that will grow 10-fold annually when utilized correctly. And yes, this system will be a major disrupter. 

The primary reason that we have it, where others do not, is we do not suffer from the Dunning – Kruger effect.  The D-K effect is explained in some detail in this post https://airpwr.com/take-the-r-out-of-revolution-and-what-do-you-get/  

For those of you that do not want to read about D-K, here is how insidious it can be to the development of anything that requires skill, knowledge, and money. 

In the case of aviation, it starts with the money (the investors) and shiny objects (the jet airplanes).  

Money does not make money by itself.  Shiny objects do not make money by themselves. What has been missing and absolutely is required is a creative force that knows what they are doing and how to extract profits without risk in the world of business aviation.  Finding the exact person with aviation knowledge and experience can be difficult as the huge majority of those that understand aviation are usually only interested in flying and could care less about the business.  The next place the money goes to find leadership is to MBAs…and that is where it all really turns to Merde! Especially if the MBA is a private pilot or knows one. That leadership pool is how we got to the “going along to get along” loser marketplace that currently exists. 

At that point it is the blind leading the blind. The MBA will never offend the money person that knows nothing about the aviation business, meaning the MBA follows instead of leading…At that point the MBA and the investor have collectively become what passes as business aviation, which is exactly why it is still stuck in 1962. 

Meantime, there is a real market, and real equipment to service that market.  What we have is a precise multiple-component solution that is ready to merge those components into a “locked in feedback loop” ready to deliver massive profits. You know, a workable, profitable, fail-safe system.

At this point you might ask, why can this plan be so successful where everyone else has failed? This plan will successfully supplant all predecessors for one simple reason, it will finally be done right. Unlike others, I do not imitate, I generate. 

How do you know that I am not a D-K outgrowth?  History is the answer.  I have a history in creating and developing successful aviation operations.  What is critical to know is that when I was a kid, I started out wanting to be a jazz piano player which by default requires improvision. A call and response which is basic to understanding jazz. Understanding improvision may be the language of jazz but it is also transformation making it easy for me to see and understand how to make the changes that are needed.  

Using all my skill sets, vision, and innovation I built two aviation companies, one in 1969 and at the specific request of the Federal Reserve Bank, and another one in 1988/89, and both are still going, both are extraordinarily successful and globally known.  As a captain actually flying jets, I accumulated over 21,000 PIC flight hours and was chief pilot for Mercedes Benz North American between 1976 and 1988. So, I know aviation like few others do. I know exactly what needs to be done to massively disrupt the entire environment in a way that benefits not just the investor, or me, but all jet owners, charter companies, charter brokers, and those who’d like to own their own plane for a fraction of the cost of a fractional. And simultaneously this system of fusion will turn every aircraft into its own PROFIT CENTER!  That has NEVER been done before. No one is interested in what I think, but what I know, and what I know is invaluable.

Should there be an investor out there that would like to generate a fantastic ROI in the aviation industry without ever owning a plane, maintaining a plane, with zero liabilities, zero risk, and zero FAA oversight, this information may well be for you.  I know how I can fix what no one else has been able to.  Should you want to know more, let’s talk.
