As I mention in my LinkedIn profile, I believe in getting business aviation to work. I believe that because I know business aviation can work. It just does not work profitably Today! Want to know why?
In today’s environment, business aviation operators try to make money using numerous variations on the business aviation theme. But all those efforts are stunningly unsuccessfully. The singular reason they all fail is simple. They are all based on Lame, illogical, and wishful thinking. Anything but facts and reality.
Empty leg flights, jet cards, dead head flights, clubs, fractional shares (which is “time sharing”) and let us not forget Piggyback chartering. Piggyback chartering is a scheme used by a variety of management and charter groups to make risk free money from aircraft they do not own.
All these concepts generate cash flow, but cash flow only, and that is a loser’s game. Cash flow can keep you going for a while, but cash flow is not profiting.
So, while I believe in making business aviation work, it simply does not, and cannot work as it is today. Jazzy pictures of airplanes and hangars will not make you money.
This ineptitude comes about because business aviation is predominately run by pilots that know nothing about business, or MBA’s that know nothing about aviation. Resulting in a rudderless industry that revolves around a dead-end, follower the leader model.
The current leaders are neither innovative or creative, resulting in empty legs flights, fractional shares, and piggybacking. Piggybacking of course is a scheme predicated on getting the free use of other people’s aircraft, which is not a sustainable model.
Every time a useless and lame concept comes around like empty leg flights, everyone in the business aviation community jumps in on it, as the next new thing. They all market their version of empty legs flights, with each saying that their version of this horrible, insipid program is better than the others. Cool eh?
These things are all useless distractions. They will never work, and always end badly.
What business aviation needs is a new and disruptive paradigm. One that is based on the realities of business aviation. One focused on utilization. One that uses all the by products of utilization. One that creates an impenetrable feedback loop of profits. One that is a win win for all concerned from operators to aircraft owners.
We have and understand that system. Our system is based on the realities of business aviation, not wishful thinking, or endless useless schemes that do not generate profits. Our system is not designed around scattered, disconnected, and mindless concepts.
What we have created is a high value, low overhead operating system based on one thing and one thing only, making profits without the schemes of piggybacking or time share consequences.
Should you be in the business aviation community or an investor. Should you want to make legitimate profits consistently and beyond you wildest thoughts. We have a well thought out, logical, and market dominant operation. A system that interlocks each part of the program with the other. A new (yet proven), and workable system?
So, if you understand what I am talking about, we have exactly what you are looking for.
We can and will integrate our concepts with your existing operations and start you making money in business aviation immediately. All that is required is some vision and a contact. And we will only work with one company. The others that follow will not understand what we are doing, and we do not offer an instruction manual.
So, the first one in, becomes the only one, be the first and you will: 1.) Take 90% of the current charter market. 2.) Render the entire fractional system irrelevant. 3.) Make owning your own corporate aircraft superfluous. 4.) Tap directly into the high-end airline market. 5.) Eliminate the useless concept of empty leg flights. 6.) Reduce 90 to 95% of all dead head flights. 7.) Increasing revenue producing hours by 600%. 8.) Disrupt the Piggyback charter system completely!
