Jon Mende is a veteran private aviation executive with nearly three decades running operations, fleet management, and maintenance programs for owner-operated aircraft. As CEO of Private Jet Management and formerly CEO of Skyways LTD and VP of Aircraft Acquisition at Delta Private Jets, he has scaled fleets and revenue—contributing to multi-hundred-million-dollar growth while building in-house teams and profitable exits. He specializes exclusively in Part 91 management, emphasizing direct leadership access and operational discipline rather than charter or fractional models. Based at Teterboro, he combines hands-on operational oversight with strategic structuring of ownership and lease programs to optimize asset performance. Notably, his career focus on doing one thing exceptionally well has been a deliberate strategy to earn owner trust in a highly regulated, safety-critical industry.
