Craig serves Leading Edge Aviation Solutions as executive vice president, transactions and operations. In this capacity he works with the clients to conclude aircraft sales and acquisitions transactions after a Leading Edge sales professional has structured a deal with a client. This may entail working with client inside and/or outside counsel with LOI / contract negotiation, coordination of pre-purchase inspections and all aspects of carrying out a purchase or sale transaction.
Craig handles the day to day office operations of New Jersey headquarters with administration and accounting reporting to him.
Craig joined the sales team of Wings Aviation International, a predecessor company to Leading Edge Aviation, in 1996 with a background in charter sales and aircraft management acquired while working for Executive Jet Aviation, which became K. C. Aviation, and Atlantic Aviation. During this time Craig mastered the fundamentals of aircraft operations and dispatch, handled the charter needs of several Fortune 500 companies and began developing a network of contacts in the business aircraft community.
Craig has performed aircraft appraisals, negotiated contracts and has concluded a broad range of aircraft sales and acquisitions ranging from King Airs and Citations through Global Express and BBJ aircraft.
His enthusiasm for general aviation is always apparent and has motivated him to obtain a multi engine private pilot’s license with instrument rating.
When Craig is not in the office he can probably found riding his motorcycle if it’s a nice sunny day.
