JetFlite International Names Warren Hogan Chief Pilot

April 26, 2012 - PRLog -- LONG BEACH, CA April 26, 2012 – JetFlite International (JFI Jets) has named Warren Hogan as chief pilot.  He joined JFI Jets, a leading provider of aircraft management charter services worldwide, in 2007 and eventually became chief pilot.

He later relinquished that chief pilot position to fly as a lead captain on JFI Jets’ G-V mostly to Europe, Russia and the Far East. Over the last three years he has flown more than 1100 hours as a G-V captain. He is also a G-IV captain for JFI Jets with over 2600 hours of G-IV/G-V flight time combined. He now has returned as chief pilot.

“Warren has extensive aviation experience and brings a great deal of knowledge back into our management group,” said Bill Cripe, Chief Executive Officer of JFI Jets.

Hogan has 32 years of professional aviation experience while accumulating more than 11,000 hours of flight time.  Prior to joining JFI Jets he was chief pilot and director of operations at Martin Aviation in Santa Ana, CA. He has also worked for Flexjet, FlightSafety International, and Petersen Aviation.

Hogan’s promotion to chief pilot comes at a time when JFI Jets growth continues to be fueled by increasing worldwide charter business.  International flights account for more than 50 percent of JFI Jets total aircraft charter business, according to Cripe.  Last year JFI Jets flew to more than 35 countries including Algeria, Brazil, Chile, China, Czech Republic, France, Georgia, Israel, Morocco, Russia, Ukraine, and Vietnam.
