There is a Key to Unlock the Business Aviation Industry!


In the 30’s a truck driver named Malcom McClean was spending his day waiting for long shoremen to unload the trailer of his 18-wheeler. The longshoremen unloaded the trailer item by item then taking them on to the ship item by item and securing them. That process took hours for every truck, and McClean thought to himself it would make more sense to just hoist the trailer onto the ship loading everything in one operation. That single observation and subsequent idea was the beginning of cargo container shipping industry which is the primary and dominant way things get shipped today.

So, one simple observation and the resultant development by McLean changed the entire global supply chain industry. I understand and have the same kind of idea for the multi-billion-dollar business aviation industry.

Therefore, the extraordinary opportunity to create and implement a software solution overlooked by the entire multi-billion-dollar business aviation industry, can be created inexpensively, quickly, and without ever owning or operating one aircraft.

Business Aviation is a well-established worldwide industry. Yet remarkably this industry continues to be operated exactly as it has been operating since 1962 that I know of. This 60-year-old operational error has endured and is the primary reason this industry continuously produces negative results.

Billions of dollars are exchanged in this industry annually, yet by all metrics, it is a failed industry for those that operate it. At least if the idea is to make a profit.

The main reason business aviation is never considered profitable is simple, the industry never understood the problem they have, or that they even had one.

But it need not be that way.

The systemic and ongoing lack of leadership that continues to plague this industry is the result of the following factors: Lack of innovative leadership, lack of operational aviation knowledge, and zero understanding that the problem is the problem.

The failed operating mechanics of this industry are attributed to what I call the gee-whiz factor, which is characterized by wide-eyed enthusiasm, excitement, and wonder for the product and services they are marketing. But little real thought is given to logic or to actually making money from operating the product or systems.

So, there exists an opportunity to provide a mechanism specifically designed to make profits for this billion-dollar industry. This system is exactly what is lacking in the current industry and will generate massive profits for the operators and the software.

As the aviation industry adopts this system, it will enable failed or failing operations into a new paradigm, one that does not exist today, profitability. Profitability will be the standard in a year.

Who am I to make these statements: I am a retired jet pilot with over 21,000 PIC hours. I am typed rated in various jets and checked out in 52 aircraft. So obviously, I fully know the products and the systems. As a response to various maintenance issues, I personally created and co-founded Jet Support Services Inc., aka JSSI. Today JSSI is the largest supplier of non-OEM jet engine service systems in the world. In 1969 I also created and co-founded Mid-West Air Charter at the request of, and specifically for, the Federal Reserve Bank to alleviate their $850 billion a week float problem which was a significant issue years before computer systems existed. The system I created and co-founded was originally known as Mid-West Air Charter. I left Mid-West in 1976 to be the CP and DO for MB-NA. Mid-West became known as Airborne, and today is known as DHL. Based on that information, you now know that I am an Innovator and professional pilot that fully recognizes problems and the values of, methods, systems, and processes.

So, if you are an investor looking to easily make sustainable profits while supporting the rebirth of an industry with a few simple adjustments, please let me know because I know exactly how this system will earn ongoing massive and ongoing profits for everyone.
