Brings Extensive Experience In The Aviation Industry To The Company

James H.L. Cowan has been appointed as as President and Chief Executive Officer of Soloy Aviation Solutions.

James Cowan brings an extensive business background, a strong engineering track record, and a passion for aviation to his new leadership role.

A Mechanical Engineering Technology graduate from Purdue University, Mr. Cowan has spent his career in the aviation industry. He was the Quality Assurance Manager for Dylan Aerospace, a Tier 1 supplier to the Boeing Airplane Company, before becoming an Aviation Client Executive for Caledonian Insurance Group, a global leader in aviation insurance and risk management services based in Mercer Island, Washington.

James Cowan sees clear business opportunity ahead for Soloy. “As an aviation pioneer in turbine engine conversions of both fixed and rotor winged aircraft, Soloy is a name and brand that is extremely well respected but not entirely well known,” he said. “Aside from ensuring our customers are being well served, my immediate priority is to put the spotlight on Soloy around the world and give it the attention it deserves. Our 750 turbine powered helicopter and fixed wing aircraft conversions are actively flying in 35 countries. And hardworking operators flying our line of STC’d turbine helicopter conversions are utilizing them because of their incredible reliability and efficiency. Soloy aircraft are considered the pinnacle and I want to make sure everyone knows it and can have access to them.” 

James Cowan and his wife Jamie are residents of Newcastle, Washington, a suburb of Seattle.
