Solairus Aviation plans to hire 100 flight crew and maintenance supervisors, the San Francisco-headquartered private aviation management services provider revealed today. It has begun recruiting dedicated crewmembers on behalf of aircraft owners to operate super-midsize, large-cabin, and ultra-long-range aircraft based in more than 30 U.S. cities. Most of the positions will fulfill manpower needs for accounts that recently tasked Solairus to establish their flight departments and manage their aircraft.
The company seeks to hire captains, maintenance supervisors, and client aviation managers to lead flight departments on Dassault Falcon, Bombardier Global Express, and Gulfstream aircraft. Examples of open positions include Global 6000 captains in the New York metropolitan area and Washington, D.C., as well as Gulfstream G600 client managers in Scottsdale, Arizona, and San Jose, California.
“We are in the people business, not the airplane business,” said Solairus CEO Dan Drohan. “Helping owners recruit world-class pilots and maintenance personnel to help keep them safe and get the most out of their aircraft is critical to our mission. We are excited to identify and welcome some of the best and brightest men and women in aviation to Solairus to support and serve our clients.”
Solairus plans to exhibit at the 2023 NBAA White Plains Regional Forum on Wednesday with a focus on meeting qualified captains and maintenance supervisors.
