About Us
The Flight Department’s Founder and President, Brian Waldron, has managed the largest fractional jet ownership account in the world, and was one of the largest retail purchasers of charter lift for domestic and international airplanes and helicopters. He’s managed more than 450,000 flight hours and has been in aviation for more than 20 years. From 2000 to 2008, Brian was the lead dispatcher for GE Corporate Air Transport. While at GE, he saved the company as much as $200,000 a day by using all available aircraft to make the correct travel choice on a trip-by-trip basis. This ability to quantify the value of fleet diversity was lauded both inside and outside the company. As Warren Buffet said in Berkshire Hathaway’s 2002 shareowner’s report:
Take General Electric, for example. It has a large fleet of its own but also has an unsurpassed knowledge of how to use aircraft effectively and economically. And it’s our [NetJets’] largest customer.
Prior to GE, Brian was the supervisor in customer service at NetJets. For nine years he has been a voting member on the customer advisory board for Wyvern Ltd., the global leader in aviation safety auditing, consulting and information services.
Brian’s vast experience affords keen insight into private air travel that saves The Flight Department’s clients valuable time and money. From The Flight Department’s headquarters in Fairfield County, Conn., Brian and his team oversee the logistics for each private flight a Flight Department client books.
We have managed over 450,000 flight hours. Our experience affords keen insight into potential problems, or restrictions. It is this experience that saves clients time and money.
