Golden Eagle Aviators

The Partnership

Being a Partner in Golden Eagle Aviators means having an equity share of GEAV, which owns the aircraft. Your vote counts as much as anyone's in all decisions around the function of GEAV and the aircraft. Be as involved as much or as little as you want. We need a Maintenance Manager. We need a Badging Coordinator. We need an Operations Manager. And so on. All things you would have to do on your own if you were sole owner, but here, a team of fellow Partner-Aviators are here to form a community, both bringing down costs, and making the overall overhead of aircraft ownership less of a burden, so that you can enjoy what you enjoy about flying.
