Appointed Keystone Helicopter Parent Appoints CFO
Keystone Helicopter has announced the appointment
of Stephen J. Gambone as Senior Vice President and Chief Financial
Officer of Keystone Ranger Holdings, Inc., and all subsidiaries.
Immediately prior to joining Keystone Ranger Holdings, Gambone was
Controller & Chief Accounting Officer for Teleflex Corporation,
a large public company with interests in aerospace and other
markets. Gambone, with a Fortune 1000 and CPA background, will
direct all internal and external financial matters for the
rotorcraft holding company and its operating units.
Steve Townes, CEO of Keystone Helicopter and its parent company,
and founder of Ranger Aerospace, said: "Steve Gambone brings
enormous new talent to our leadership team. We are poised for
continued growth, and Steve's impressive qualifications and
direct-fit experiences will help us reach our goals."
Gambone's 24-year financial career is distinguished by his
operational oversight and fiscal leadership role with numerous
small to medium-sized subsidiaries, as well as audit management
with PricewaterhouseCoopers. At Teleflex, a $2 billion company,
Gambone guided the actions of 80 business unit controllers across
numerous markets, including aerospace. Gambone replaces James
McCaughan, who left the company earlier in the year to pursue other
business interests.
Keystone Helicopter is one of the largest and oldest helicopter
services companies in the United States. Founded in 1953, Keystone
operates a large fleet of turbine helicopters in multiple locations
across several eastern states, primarily in the air medical
mission. The firm also operates a large technical services depot
and completion center near Philadelphia, and is building new, even
larger facilities near Chester County Airport, Pennsylvania.
