Aircraft management and private jet charter company Priester
Aviation, LLC has added three new aircraft to its private jet

Priester’s aircraft management and charter program.

The 16 passenger Gulfstream G550 will join the fleet as
Priester’s 16th large cabin aircraft available for worldwide
charter. The ultra-long range charter jet is uniquely outfitted
with a crew rest area enabling the aircraft to reach nearly any
destination non-stop from its Northeast base in Connecticut (KBDL).
Passengers will find their trip enhanced by the in-flight
entertainment system, Airshow flight monitoring displays, satellite
phone, iPod connectivity and Wi-Fi internet access. The large cabin
offers three distinct living areas that can be configured into two
private areas and comfortably sleep six passengers.
In addition to the G550, Priester has added two Oklahoma City,
OK (KPWA) based aircraft which include a Citation CJ4 and Pilatus
PC-12 NG. Both aircraft will expand Priester’s presence in
Oklahoma and provide additional choices to the aircraft currently
based in the Southwest region. The Citation CJ4 can accommodate
seven passengers with similar capabilities of a midsize aircraft at
the efficiency of a light jet. The Pilatus PC-12 NG turbo-prop is
known for its versatility while still offering cabin amenities and
exceptional quality often found in jets.
“Priester is focused on providing aircraft that are best
suited to our clients needs,” said Andy Priester, President
and COO, Priester Aviation. “Our clients are interested in
newer aircraft that maximize the productivity of their specific
travel profile while flying on the safest aircraft, which we
believe these new additions demonstrate.”
