Mountain Aviation Grows Nationwide Private Jet Fleet

BROOMFIELD, Colo., Dec. 16, 2020 /PRNewswire/ — Mountain Aviation has added the 26th Citation X to its private jet fleet, making it the largest Citation X operator in the world, an internal goal that was set just 2 years ago.

BROOMFIELD, Colo., Dec. 16, 2020 /PRNewswire/ — Mountain Aviation has added the 26th Citation X to its private jet fleet, making it the largest Citation X operator in the world, an internal goal that was set just 2 years ago.

Mountain Aviation added the 26th Citation X to its fleet, making it the largest Citation X operator in the world.

«Today marks a significant milestone in the 27-year history of Mountain Aviation,» said Director of Operations, Michael Vargo. «I couldn’t be prouder of the team we’ve built that’s turned this dream into reality.»

In Q4 2020, Mountain is ranked 3rd amongst all private jet floating fleet operators and 2nd in the super-midsize category in terms of flights, hours and total miles flown.

The current growth plan for the super-mid fleet has Mountain operating 35 Citation X’s by Q2 2021. The recent additions to the fleet bring the total number of aircraft operated by Mountain to over 60.  With a range of nationwide floating aircraft that include King Air through Gulfstream IV-SP heavy jets, Mountain’s ability to support the entire industry is firmly solidified.

Widely regarded as the most efficient operator in the industry, Mountain boasts the highest utility per aircraft in the super-mid category. «To see this growth with zero outside investment is a testament to our team mentality and focused execution. We have taken a different approach in the industry which is driving the growth.» stated CEO Gregg Fahrenbruch.

Mountain has prioritized its development of fleet optimization, mission execution, and flight safety above all else.  To support this growth, the company’s maintenance team took an innovative approach to fleet maintenance and shortened the duration of typical maintenance events through specialized training, tooling, and investments in technical personnel. This increase in maintenance efficiency directly contributes to increased uptime per aircraft along with higher dispatch reliability.  The company has worked closely with Textron Aviation to ensure long term technical and parts support for the new additions and future fleet growth.

«We’re excited to continue our aggressive pursuit of growth and expand our reach in 2021 — We’re just getting started,» said Fahrenbruch.

NEW YORK, Dec. 16, 2020 /PRNewswire/ — This evening, Kenny Dichter, Founder and CEO of leading private aviation company Wheels Up, will be honored as one of City & State’s «Responsible 100» for ongoing philanthropic efforts and initiatives.

NEW YORK, Dec. 16, 2020 /PRNewswire/ — This evening, Kenny Dichter, Founder and CEO of leading private aviation company Wheels Up, will be honored as one of City & State’s «Responsible 100» for ongoing philanthropic efforts and initiatives.

Dichter and Wheels Up are being recognized for their support of Feeding America with the March 2020 launch of the Meals Up program, which was created to help raise awareness and funds around the growing levels of food insecurity during the COVID-19 crisis. Meals Up is an extension of Wheels Up Cares, a program that is committed to continually aligning with philanthropic organizations and initiatives that affect and matter to Wheels Up and its members, families, and friends. 

In September 2020, Wheels Up debuted its Orange Plane in honor of Feeding America’s Hunger Action Month. The aircraft is now a permanent part of the Wheels Up Cares fleet, a group of custom-painted Beechcraft King Air 350i aircraft that serve as flying symbols for specific causes. The Wheels Up Cares fleet also includes the Camouflage Plane for the Tragedy Assistance Program for Survivors, the Red Plane for the American Heart Association and Simon’s Heart, the Teal Plane for Ovarian Cancer Awareness, and the Pink Plane for Breast Cancer Awareness and the Dubin Breast Center of the Tisch Cancer Institute at Mount Sinai.

In May and November of 2020, Wheels Up partnered with Turner Sports for «The Match: Champions for Charity» and «The Match: Champions for Change» respectively, to raise awareness and funds for Feeding America. The Company also debuted a commercial featuring Feeding America, putting high visibility marketing assets behind the cause. Through ongoing efforts to date, Meals Up has already raised and inspired the equivalent of more than 50 million meals for those facing hunger, with participation from Wheels Up Ambassadors and friends including Russell Wilson, Ciara, Tom Brady, JJ Watt, Alex Rodriguez, Jennifer Lopez, Deion Sanders, Joey Logano, and Feeding America CEO Claire Babineaux-Fontenot.

The «Responsible 100» recognizes New York’s most powerful executives, thought leaders, visionaries and influencers, who are setting new standards of excellence, dedication and leadership in improving their communities and making transformative change.

«I am humbled to be recognized personally and on behalf of Wheels Up among the City’s most generous and influential thought leaders in corporate and social responsibility,» said Dichter. «It is imperative that we work to support the many people affected by this pandemic through Meals Up and in collaboration with Feeding America. We also pledge to continue upholding our ongoing responsibility through Wheels Up Cares and giving back to the communities we serve every day.»

Personally, Dichter is a major supporter of his alma mater, the University of Wisconsin-Madison. In 2019, he partnered with the Office of Admissions and Recruitment to fund the Fly High Fund, which will support digital outreach to students of color to encourage them to apply.
