Has Over 5,000 Hrs. PIC In Several Aircraft Types

Diamond Aircraft announced Tuesday the company has appointed Mr. Charles (Chuck) Glass as its new Director of Fleet Sales.

Mr. Glass will be responsible for North American factory direct fleet sales, training programs and account management of institutional customers.

"Chuck's extensive background in the flight training industry, including establishment and operation of an all Diamond fleet at PanAm Beijing, ensures that he truly understands the needs of our customers," said Peter Maurer, President of Diamond Aircraft Industries.

Diamond representatives tell Aero-News that Glass has well over 5,000 hrs PIC in fixed and rotary wing aircraft -- including service as a US military aviator from 1969 to 1989. His flight training experience includes senior management and executive positions at Miami Dade Community College, Westwood School of Aviation Technology, PanAm International Flight Academy and Beijing PanAm International Aviation Academy.

The latter, established in 2004, offers a fleet of all-glass-equipped single and twin Diamonds, as well as Diamond-specific FAA Level 5 Flight Training Devices -- offering one of the most modern flight training institutions anywhere, and the first and only Part 141 approved flight school in China.
