Global Jet Capital Appoints Vick CEO



Global Jet Capital appointed Shawn Vick CEO, responsible for the overall strategy and direction of the company.

A partner at AE Industrial Partners (AEI) and one of the company’s investors, Vick had previously been an executive director and the chairman of the executive committee at Global Jet Capital.

This appointment follows the successful acquisition of the GE portfolio of more than 300 aircraft valued at approximately $2.5 billion.

With $2.5 billion in assets under management and the additional current committed capacity to lend $1 billion, Global Jet Capital provides financing solutions for the private aircraft market.
