SOLJETS serves aircraft buyers and sellers worldwide.

SOLJETS, the Utah-based aircraft brokerage and acquisition firm, has hired Kyle Sale, Chadd Smith and James Norris as sales directors. The firm said their backgrounds span aircraft brokerage, maintenance, operations, aviation technology and leasing.

“Every aircraft transaction comes with decisions that affect an owner long after closing,” said David Lee, co-founder and partner of SOLJETS. “Kyle, Chadd and James bring experience in the areas that shape those decisions, including maintenance, operating costs and international sales. Their backgrounds strengthen the guidance we can offer our buyers and sellers.”

Kyle Sale has more than a decade of aviation experience and is an Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University graduate. His background covers aircraft maintenance, operations, parts procurement and emerging aviation technologies, with expertise in ownership costs, hourly maintenance programmes and operational risk across jets, turboprops and helicopters.

Chadd Smith has more than a decade in private and business aviation, starting as an F-16 crew chief in the US Air National Guard. He has worked in aircraft brokerage, at OEMs, in maintenance, repair and overhaul, and at fixed-base operations. He most recently served as director of sales at an aviation enterprise software company and is based in Atlanta, Georgia.

James Norris has experience in aircraft sales, acquisitions, leasing and market research. He was previously vice president of sales at an established aircraft brokerage.
