Does it feel like owning and operating your private aircraft comes with more challenges than expected? Whether you have a business that is not associated with the aviation industry or maintain a small craft for your family’s pleasure, hiring an aircraft management service (AMS) may help you fully embrace the freedom of flight.
GO Air Brokerage is here to help you understand how management services can reduce your stress and even lower the costs of owning your plane or helicopter.
What will an aircraft management service do for me and my business?
You likely invested in the purchase of a private aircraft to break free of the limitations associated with flying commercially. However, owning your jet comes with a mountain of other responsibilities beyond paying for a first-class ticket and arriving at the gate on time. An aircraft management service creates a seamless bridge between the two lifestyles while supporting your bottom line.
Keep Your Jet Ready to Fly When You Need It
Instead of contacting your pilot, organizing the maintenance crew, and filing a flight plan with the FAA, you only need to make a single call. Your management service takes care of all the details of preparing for a quick getaway while you have more time to plan for the board meeting.
Hire Qualified Flight Crews
There is no need to have your human resources department interview, hire, and onboard pilots and stewards to operate your plane. The AMS will match your craft with a flight crew fully qualified for its unique demands. Since the service works with multiple plane owners, they have access to a wider pool of available pilots ready to fill in if yours has a scheduling conflict.
Maintaining a Jet to Meet or Surpass All FAA Requirements
While you personally interact with your craft during a weekly flight, a plane demands constant inspections, maintenance, and repairs to look after your and the public’s safety. Once you land, you are free to get to work or to enjoy your weekend while the management service gets to work coordinating all the ground services needed to prepare your craft for the flight home.
Optimize Cash Flow with Charter Services
Does your corporate jet sit in the hangar for weeks or months between excursions? An aircraft management service can find charters for your plane so that it earns back some of its operating costs. If you run a publicly traded company, demonstrating that your transportation system also serves the greater good helps offset perceptions of elitism.
Free Up Your Desk by Outsourcing to Pros
How much research was required to purchase that business jet? Who did you need to hire to expand transportation options to the air? Just imagine clearing out that virtual filing cabinet of everything related to your aviation department and handing it to a reputable, responsive, and fiscally responsible management service. Your risk management department will also likely cheer the decision.
Logistics, Hangars, Fuel Prices, and Responding to Emergencies
Have you ever considered all the peripherals associated with owning and operating your own craft? Relocating the plane to service a VIP or leasing a hangar at a local airport. Do you pay exorbitant prices for jet fuel when you could benefit from some smart bargaining performed by your management service?
Who do you call if you need parts or personnel if your jet is grounded at a foreign destination?
Your aircraft management service simply needs a single call, and they will organize a ride home, see to the plane’s repair, and file all the appropriate paperwork.
