Steve Hofmann
President, ENG Aviation
After serving in the U.S. Marine Corps, Steve Hofmann pursued his passion for the technology sector but held a lifelong love of aviation. The year 2020 presented an opportunity to cut back on business travel and earn his private pilot certificate. He worked through certificates and ratings and realized he could use his background in technology to automate processes in business aviation. Hofmann acquired a company with a charter certificate and learned the business from the inside out, taking a once outdated brand and seamlessly integrating cutting-edge technology and modern operational practices. The company specializes in aircraft management and organ transplant transport.
“In business aviation we can truly work backwards from our customers, unlike other industries that provide a product or service that you have to fit into,” says Hofmann. “Business aviation is truly bespoke. We can tailor an experience for any customer’s needs.”
