George J. Priester Aviation, a private aviation company, has strengthened its operations with the addition of 10 aircraft in 2025, bringing its portfolio to around 90 managed planes.
The new aircraft have been added to regional bases such as Colorado, Illinois, and Texas, and the company also has an international roster in Thailand.
“This growth is the direct result of a commitment to outstanding aircraft management across George J. Priester Aviation,” said Brent Moldowan, President & CEO of George J. Priester Aviation. “We’ve been successful in offering management programmes that fit what owners need – whether it’s first-time owners who benefit from an excellent onboarding process and team support, or seasoned owners, who are knowledgeable about the quality of the service elements provided. The George J. Priester difference is showing up in a relevant way as aircraft owners seek out better management, recommended by people they trust.”
Priester is also continually diversifying its aircraft types, with its managed fleet containing Gulfstream, Cessna Citation, Dassault Falcon, Embraer Praetor 500, Bombardier Learjet 45, and Boeing Business Jet aircraft.
“Each of our bases in the Midwest, Rocky Mountain West and Southeast, have created a culture of above-and-beyond service that anticipates and exceeds aircraft owners’ needs,” commented Rich Ropp, Chief Sales and Services Officer. “Adding to that is our ability to successfully manage aircraft where it’s convenient for the owner – making their home base our base, too.”
The company recently reached its 80th anniversary, and in 2024 it unified its three brands, Priester Aviation, Mayo Aviation, and Hill Private Aviation, under the collective George J. Priester Aviation name.
