An entrepreneur by profession and a pilot by passion, Jack has started two software businesses and one transportation business. In 2003, he became part of the founding faculty of the Acton School of Business where he teaches entrepreneurship. Having soloed in a Piper Cherokee 140 in 1977, Jack has moved-up the aviation food chain as time and budget have allowed including a Mooney 201, a Cirrus SR-22, and culminating in the purchase of N575PC (S/N 575) in 2008. He has flown the PC-12 all over the US, on multiple trips to Haiti after the 2009 earthquake, and on several trips to Central America. Jack lives in Austin, Texas with frequent summer-time visits to Jackson Hole, Wyoming.
Brian flies S/N 733, tail N326V. After flying a TBM 700 for a while, Brian purchased his PC-12/47 in September 2006 to gain greater range and cabin comfort for his colleagues and clients. The aircraft is used almost exclusively for business and flies about 300 hours/year mostly up and down the Atlantic seaboard from Maine to Miami. The versatility of the Pilatus is perfectly suited for Brian's missions with 40% of the trips in the 300-500nm distance, 40% in the 500-1,500nm trips and 20% greater than 1,500nm.
Brian owns several businesses that keep him regulary on the move. But when he has a chance to cool his heels, he can generally be found at his home on Longboat Key, Florida or at one of his business locations in Connecticut or Maine. Brian has been a member of POPA since 2006 and is delighted to serve the membership on the Board of Directors.
