George J. Priester adds 10 aircraft so far in 2025

George J. Priester Aviation has added 10 aircraft to its managed fleets so far in 2025, bringing its roster to nearly 90 aircraft across its three brands. 

The additions include Colorado, Illinois and Texas-based aircraft, and one more to the company’s international roster in Thailand. The diversity of the managed fleet is also growing, as aircraft include Gulfstreams, Cessna Citations, Dassault Falcon Jets, an Embraer Praetor 500 and a Bombardier Learjet 45. The firm is also now managing a Boeing Business Jet based in Texas.

“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 programs 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.”

The company, through its three brands of George J. Priester Priester Aviation, Mayo Aviation and Hill Private Aviation, provides crewing, flight operations and maintenance coordination, among other services.

“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,” said 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 is on track to surpass last year’s growth, having added 14 aircraft to its managed fleet in 2024.
