Don Osmundson Biography :

"The 'per-seat, on-demand' service model is the first truly new idea in business transportation I have seen in decades. The intersection of innovative VLJ aircraft like the Eclipse 500 and DayJet's real-time operations technology makes it possible to provide business professionals with a new regional travel option that is custom-made, on-demand, and offers superior travel efficiency."A commercial airline veteran with 35 years of experience, Don joined DayJet in September 2005 as vice president of flight operations responsible for the overall implementation of safety of flight in DayJet's per-seat, on-demand jet services. In this capacity, he is charged with qualifying and training flight crews, establishing and executing the highest flight and safety standards, and ensuring compliance with FAA Part 135 on-demand requirements across DayJet's rapid-growth air operations. A veteran aviator, Don has spent more than 20 years as a pilot with airline, corporate and freight operators including Continental and Frontier airlines and served as chief pilot and vice president of flight operations for major and regional airlines including Continental and Comair airlines. As Comair's vice president of flight operations for eight years, he was responsible for 175 regional jets, 2,000 pilots and 200 support personnel. He oversaw Comair's flight operations as it transitioned from turbo-prop to regional jet operations, championing new technology and the development of management tools to better guide the airline's growth. After nine years as a Frontier Airlines line pilot, Don joined Continental Airlines in 1987, where he was an instructor pilot, assistant chief pilot and chief pilot. In 1993 he became Continental's vice president of flight operations where he oversaw a corps of 4,000 pilots, 300 support personnel and managed forecasting, budgeting, pilot training, FAA compliance, and operational safety activities. Don graduated from Embry-Riddle University with a bachelor's degree in aeronautical science. He also has a master's degree in business administration from the University of Phoenix.
