Chief Pilot, Jack Henry, CAM

Professional Flight Management has been my constant ally for 30+ years as a corporate aviation part 91 dispatcher. When you operate around the world, around the clock, the last thing you need are software issues. Bill and his team have never let us down and consistently work beyond the edge of what is possible to find us real time solutions to any obstacles we encounter. Their data reliability, redundancy and security consistently pass our infiltration attacks and testing challenges. I would not want to do business with anyone else!
