Shared Ownership Program Lands At Three SoCal Airports

AirShares Elite told ANN this week about the opening of the shared ownership operaton's first West Coast-based operation, located in the metro Los Angeles area. AirShares Elite has selected the John Wayne-Orange County, Santa Monica, and Van Nuys airports to launch the western expansion of its popular aircraft shared ownership program.

"AirShares Elite is more than just owning an airplane," says David Lee, AirShares President and CEO. "Nowhere else will you experience a culture that blends expert training, professional pilot mentoring, world class customer service, and an industry-leading managerial staff, all rolled into the luxury of hassle-free aircraft ownership."

AirShares has brand new air-conditioned Cirrus SR22 GTS airplanes already on the ground in LA. AirShares will also be the first ownership program to feature the newly announced air-conditioned, turbo-equipped SR22 G3 airplanes when Cirrus begins delivery later in the year.

"The enthusiasm and excitement we received from pilots at AOPA Expo '06 was unprecedented," Lee continues. "We listened to the demand and today, the AirShares experience is now available west of the continental divide."

Formal introductions to the program will begin on May 19, when AirShares Elite holds its first LA area open house at John Wayne-Orange County airport. Similar ceremnoies at Santa Monica Airport (SMO) will follow on May 20 and June 9, with an open house at Van Nuys (VNY) scheduled for June 10. Locations are available on the AirShares website.
