iFly President And CEO Andrew DeMond
There's a new program shaping up in Southern California, that
looks to transform the personal aircraft access paradigm. It's
called iFly -- a new company that offers member pilots managed
access to a fleet of high performance Columbia 350s for about half
the cost of traditional sole ownership and without any of the
responsibilities that can complicate a pilot's relationship with
his airplane.
Today, ANN's Jim Campbell talks with Andrew DeMond, President
and CEO of iFly... fractional ownership with a new twist.
This feature is in addition to our daily news briefing --
available in either a quick "Touch And Go" format, or an expanded
Aero-Briefing -- where you'll hear these stories:
Mary Peters gets the nod for Secretary of
Transportation...
The latest on last weekend's crash of a Brazilian
737...
And if your plane has a Lycoming engine... there's another
AD to worry about.
...And more.

Our DAILY programs consist of (at least) three separate
products.
- ANN's Daily 'Touch & Go' Aero-Cast: A
quick look at the most recent news of the day... short, succinct
and to the point. The usual 'Touch & Go' takes but a few
minutes and is a summary, only, of the day's events... and it only
takes a few minutes of your time.
- ANN's Daily Briefing Aero-Cast: The Daily ANN
Report (ANNRep for short), is a more comprehensive look at the
day's news. We give you the whole buzz... the news and features
that occupy the forefront of aviation news as well as solid
background on the subjects that aviators and other aviation
professionals need to stay informed on.
- ANN's Daily 'ASR' Feature Aero-Cast: Our daily
'Aero-News Special Report' involves a more in-depth view of a story
or two that dominated (or will be dominating) the day's news. Far
more detailed than any single story in our standard ANN Daily
Reports, this is a solid chance to get a close look at the stories
and topics that matter. ASR features may include exclusive
interviews with Aviation's Newsmakers, ANN's Special Investigative
reports and solid analysis of the stories that will have undeniable
impact on the world of aviation and aerospace.
Check them out, let us know what you think and be sure to keep
those news-tips and program suggestions coming... ANN is ALL about
what YOU want to know about in the world of aviation and
aerospace.
