If ever there were a book that is required reading for a business aviation flight department manager, then Business and Corporate Aviation Management: On-demand Air Travel--written by long-time aviation management consultant John Sheehan--fits the bill. Whether you're looking to start a new flight department from scratch or are just looking for some guidance in running an existing flight department, Sheehan's book offers plenty of helpful information, as well as numerous real-world case studies. The first three chapters of the text provide a background of on-demand air transportation, how to choose the right option (charter, fractional, management company, full ownership) and how to begin the operation. The next two chapters--"Running the Business" and "Flight Department Management"--are the real meat of the book for aviation managers or would-be managers. Chapters six, seven and eight cover operations, security, maintenance and safety, while the final chapter takes the information from the preceding segments and ties it all together. Completing the book is an appendix that lists contact information for business aviation associations and publications, air-transport analysis checklists, owner-flown procedures and budget justification. Aviation International News 20040201 Choosing an on-demand air transportation system for your company and making it work is the main theme in John Sheehan's new book, Business and Corporate Aviation Management. Getting started in this complex technical field can prove a bewildering experience for the uninitiated. Once begun, managing an on-demand air transpiration operation requires skill and knowledge to continue it successfully. Business and Corporate Aviation Management offers executives, managers and flight department personnel a solid background and insights into establishing and running aviation operations. The book provides information on: how companies use aircraft to best advantage: choosing the best aircraft and method of air transpiration; establishing, managing and maintaining all types of on-demand air transportation options; aircraft acquisition, start-up, regulations, scheduling, finances, safety, maintenance and operations; and keeping flight operations safe, legal, effective and efficient.
