A new business aviation services company has entered the market, with its launch on June 30 timed to exploit a rise in demand for private aircraft as Covid-related travel restrictions are gradually lifted across the globe. Three business aviation veterans, each with more than 30 years of experience in the industry, created Vulcan Aviation: Trevor Esling, until recently regional senior vice-president of sales for Gulfstream Aerospace; Roger Whyte, former senior vice-president of worldwide sales and marketing at Cessna Aircraft; and Barry Johnson, chief executive of UK-based aircraft management company Executive Jet Charter.
“Trevor Esling, Barry Johnson, and I have held senior leadership positions in several of the world’s foremost OEMs and flight departments, negotiated some of the industry’s largest deals, and built trusted relationships with many of the world’s most sophisticated aircraft owners and operators. This gives us a formidable array of knowledge, skills, and connections to wield on behalf of clients,” said Whyte.
