The teams at Netflix Aviation and Jet Linx Aviation will be joining together to shed some more light into the world of business aviation. They will discuss exactly what business aviation is and how a corporate flight department supports business operations from both Part 91 and Part 135 perspectives. They will delve into the culture within a corporate flight department and touch upon some of the attributes that make their teams successful in the field. The teams will shed some light on the structure of business aviation operations as well as explore the many opportunities which are available through this area of the industry.

With the COVID-19 pandemic spurring a major shift away from commercial aviation and into the business aviation spectrum, members of both the Netflix and Jet Linx team will share their individual paths to business aviation and great takeaways for success in the field. A robust live Q&A session will allow attendees to become more familiar with the different backgrounds of our panelists and understand the experiences they have gone through which may be relevant to a switch to the business aviation industry.

Panelists will include: Chief Pilots at each respective company along with representatives from their Flight Attendant, Aircraft Maintenance, Scheduling and Recruiting departments. Pilot’s from across different fleets will also be joining to give their perspective to life in business aviation. We look forward to having you join us for this interesting and interactive look into the world of Business Aviation!
