Waterford, Mich.-based Pentastar Aviation, the former corporate flight department of DaimlerChrysler purchased by Edsel B. Ford II in 2001, recently promoted Richard Barley to executive chef of its Fivestar Gourmet catering division. Barley oversees a staff of eight chefs and culinary apprentices to provide catering services for FBOs at five Detroit-area airports as well as for off-airport events.

Since Pentastar opened its in-house catering department at its Pontiac FBO terminal building in 1992, the company has invested more than $1 million in its state-of-the-art kitchen facility.
