Elit'Avia Americas expands fleet and management team in support of growth

Elit'Avia Americas, a privately held provider of fully integrated private aviation solutions headquartered in Newburgh, New York, today announced the addition of a Challenger 3500 and Legacy 500 to its fleet of aircraft under management in addition to appointments to key management positions.

"Our Legacy 500 and Challenger 3500 are located on the west coast and are expected to join our charter fleet later in the year. With operating ranges of 3,125nm and 3,400nm respectively, they boast short field performance and steep approach capabilities, enabling our charter clients to operate in and out of some of the more challenging airports, such as Aspen, Colorado, as well as reaching Hawaii from Los Angeles, making both aircraft perfect fits to our growing fleet." says Kevin Rodgers, president, Elit'Avia Americas. "I would also like to thank ZenithJet Inc. for their oversight of the delivery process of the Challenger 3500, which enabled us to onboard the aircraft on schedule."

In support of its growth, Elit'Avia Americas is also proud to announce the following appointments to its management team:

- Renee Skiles, director of charter sales and client experience:

Renee will be responsible for further developing charter sales/revenue and ensuring client satisfaction. Renee holds a Bachelor of Business Administration from Texas Woman's University and joins the company with a remarkable track record of success in sales positions within various charter sales organisations. Her proven expertise and achievements will make her a valuable addition to Elit'Avia's US operations.

- Justin Warren, director of maintenance:

Justin will be leading the company's maintenance organisation, ensuring safe operations and dispatch reliability as well as overall asset management for its clients. Justin joins the team with close to 20 years' experience in business aviation, providing maintenance oversight at both the service provider level and in the capacity of director of maintenance.

Justin is currently pursuing a Bachelor of Science in Technical Management at Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University and holds an Associate of Arts in Occupational Studies from Redstone College. Additionally, he holds several industry-specific certifications covering multiple aircraft models.
