A Multi-Billion Dollar Industry with a major Problem!
Business Aviation is an international multi-billion-dollar industry with a major deep-rooted entrenched problem.
Business Aviation started out with this built-in flaw, and no one at the time ever noticed, so it was never corrected.
Back in the late 50’s and early 60’s as business aviation evolved, the cost to operate aircraft was low enough that the problem was not as obvious or as critical as it became. Which is primarily why the problem was unnoticed until it was not possible to ignore it.
So, the problem simply became a part of doing business as usual. And the industry learned to live with the problem and take the losses simply because they did not think it was a problem or know how to fix it.
As expenses skyrocketed, the people that run business aviation operations are typically not aviation people. So, they put MBA’s put in charge of aviation systems they have no idea, experience, or ideas about operating business jets. So, they never knew they had a problem.
This is not the MBA’s fault. This happens because people that invest in the business aviation industry want MBA’s running things rather than a pilot. In one way it is understandable, and, in another way, it is ludicrous.
Then the MBA’s take on Business Aviation was that it was a tax write off. They took the massive money-making program it can be when it is done right, to the point where Félix Dennis said, “it if flies, floats, or fornicates, rent it”.
It is hard to understand why any investor or industry where such expensive equipment, regulatory intense, and risk intense business would put a neophyte in change of operations, but they do. On the other hand, it is also understandable why investors do not want pilots running their billion-dollar business. The classic catch 22 with no solution until now.
So, business aviation runs every day churning through millions and millions of dollars, and with very few exceptions they lose money every day they operate.
I have the solution. It is simple to create, simple to operate, and will most defiantly proliferate.
Additionally, the development of the software is just the beginning of the possibilities. As the software becomes integrated into the system, the entire business aviation environment will evolve into a massive feedback loop that will be controlling and profiting from all aspects of the industry.
So, in one developmental step, business aviation will go from the quintessential loser it has been for over 60 years, to an efficient, massive problem-solving money generating machine. This feedback loop is effectively capable of controlling the entire operational side of the business aviation environment once developed.
At this point you may be asking who I am or how I know these things?
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. For example, in 1988/89, to control and contain various maintenance issues so 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 float problem. 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 went on to become known as Airborne, and today is known as DHL.
So, I have proven that I know exactly what needs to be developed.
