Well said. Thank you. If some anons cannot see this as the good thing it is, oh well. Incidentally, there were never notables until this forum /qr. Not on 4chan, not on /cbts, or anything else. Just here. Thus, why Q acknowledged 3416 as all but notables.

WHEELS UP DIG

 

Founder Kenny Dichter

 

Kenny Dichter is an American entrepreneur who is currently the C.E.O of the private aviation company Wheels Up.[2] Previously, he co-founded Alphabet City Sports Records, Marquis Jet, and Tequila Avión.

 

Alphabet City Sports Records

 

After graduating from the University of Wisconsin in 1990, Dichter founded Alphabet City Sports Records with friend Jesse Itzler/[3] The label focused on creating and selling songs that were frequently heard in sports stadiums and arenas.[4][5] The firm was eventually sold to SFX Entertainment in 1998 for $4.3 million in cash and stocks.

 

Marquis Jets

 

Dichter founded Marquis Jets in 2001, the first fractional card jet program. By 2007, the firm was turning over more than $700 million per year from its 3,500 customers.[6] In November 2010, Dichter sold Marquis Jet to NetJets, a subsidiary of Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway.[7]

 

Tequila Avión

 

Tequila Avión, a brand of tequila, was founded by Dichter and Ken Austin.[8] The brand was named the 'Best Tequila in the World' and 'Best White Spirit in the World' at the 2012 San Francisco World Spirits Competition [9]

 

Wheels Up

 

A few years after the sale of Marquis Jets, Dichter reentered the private aviation industry by founding Wheels Up. Rather than a fractional card program, it is a membership based business that charges users per flight hour without spending requirements or time commitments.[10][11]

***After looking through the entire Twitter for Kenny Dichter/Wheels Up, it is clear this man/company was involved with the cream of the crop of Athletes of all sports as well as some celebrity types. Almost got the sense of was beyond just a business type relationship with most. It appeared Dichter was the face of the company, so other partners may need to be examined closer.

 

CO FOUNDED TEQUILLA COMPANY "AVION"

 

The creators of Avion tequila didn’t have to pay a penny for all the priceless publicity the new booze brand has gotten on this season of “Entourage” — all it took was 35 years of friendship.

 

Marquis Jet tycoon Kenny Dichter, who just launched Avion in New York and California, grew up with Doug Ellin, the creator of the HBO hit about movie star Vince Chase (Adrian Grenier) and his posse.

NET JETS/WHEELS UP/RICHARD SANTULLI

 

*Base in North America, Europe and Saudi Arabia

 

*Former Goldman Sachs President of Leasing

 

https://www.sherpareport.com/aircraft/netjets-v-wheels-up.html

 

Richard Santulli is often referred to as “the Father of Fractional Ownership,” a concept that helped spur private aviation’s rapid growth over the past two decades. Having founded NetJets, he sold the company in 1998 to Warren Buffet’s Berkshire Hathaway and today, as Chairman and CEO, oversees the world’s largest fleet of 781 private jets from light aircraft to Boeing Business Jets with another 552 on order. With a base firmly established in North America and Europe, and a joint venture operating in Saudi Arabia, NetJets recently announced its intentions to launch in Asia. Elite Traveler Editor-in-Chief Douglas Gollan caught up with Santulli to get his perspective on a wide range of subjects—from working for the Oracle of Omaha, to the future of general aviation, his favorite places for elite travel and other aspects of his fast- growing business.

 

ET: Can you tell us how you got involved in private aviation and what you were doing before?

 

Richard Santulli: My prior career was with Goldman Sachs. I ran—I was actually president of—Goldman Sachs Leasing, which is a company we started and which did quite a bit of aviation, leasing mainly commercial airplanes and helicopters. We did all the helicopter leasing that was being done on the Street. When I left Goldman in 1980, I started a leasing company and devoted my energy to helicopters because they were difficult to finance; they were small deals, and as such I wasn’t going to be competing with the big commercial banks, plus I knew all the operators. We became the biggest helicopter lessor in the world. But I also did some airplanes, too, at the same time. We didn’t operate them—we just financed them.
