(Greenville, SC – February 14, 2012) – Greenville’s own Venture Aviation has added a late-model Pilatus PC-12 to its charter and management fleet and has hired two additional flight members.
Joshua Williams, a longtime Upstate resident and professional pilot, has joined Venture and will be pilot-in-command on the PC-12 and the Super King Air series jet-props. Josh is an Airline Transport-rated pilot and a veteran of on-demand operations with a reputation for purpose and safety in his flying.
Morgan Ridley, a graduate of Bob Jones University, joins Venture as a second-in-command and will be flying the Super King Air series jet-props and the PC-12. Morgan is a commercial-rated pilot who comes to Venture from the Greenville Spartanburg Airport where she worked in airport operations.
Venture Aviation, which obtained its FAA certification as an on-demand air carrier in 1999, operates a diverse executive-charter fleet including two 5-passenger Beech Baron aircraft, typically used as an alternative to spending all day driving to and from a sales presentation. Businesses use Venture’s three King Air turbo-props to close sales in the morning; then stop off once or twice on the way home to visit current customers and to shore up accounts. “And when you get the call to ‘come at once,’” said Knoblauch, “our Citation business jets are the answer, offering the most speed and non-stop range in our fleet.”
