The little Jet Company has welcomed a new pilot. Graham Tate has joined the executive jet company, which is based at Gloucestershire Airport.
Graham, a 49 year-old father of two, will also be training other pilots.
His love of flying came from his father who worked in the aviation industry for most of his life.
‘It’s something I’ve always wanted to do,’ said Graham.
He gained his private pilot license when he was 17. His aviation career started as a flight dispatcher, and he also worked in ground operations. He gained his commercial licenses when he was 32.
‘Every week is different and that’s what I love about flying,’ he said. ‘I love the variety of the job. I like the clients we have. It’s nice to chat to them. We have regular clients and it’s also nice to meet new people. I want to do as much for them as I can. It’s also nice to see different places all the time.’
In September Graham flew to destinations including Palma, Frankfurt, Amsterdam, Guernsey, Dusseldorf, Switzerland, Belgium, and Inverness.
Graham enjoys working for The Little Jet Company. ‘They are all great guys,’ he said. ‘It’s a growing company and it’s nice to be involved with a company that’s expanding and has ambition.’
Whether it’s a worldwide or European business flight, a special occasion with family or friends, or an international sporting event, The Little Jet Company offers a personal and comprehensive executive jet airline service.
People travelling for business can save time by having airside access, allowing them to drive right up to the aircraft. The aircrafts are scheduled to tailor for their personal schedules, and they can hold meetings on board. The private jets are also able to provide comfortable, safe, and secure flights for family holidays.
The Little Jet Company provides services including privately owned jets for charter, management of aircraft and ground handling services.
Jason Bishop, Director of The Little Jet Company, said: ‘We are delighted to welcome Graham on board.’
