Jim McCotter Chief Executive Officer
"Jim McCotter has been an innovator and pioneer in many entrepreneurial ventures. He has been first in more than one industry. He founded the first full color newspapers in the United States in the 70's, the first talent funded news-talk radio stations and the first local news-talk television stations. He went on to found the first total media conglomerate in a single market, owning/operating in one international market a television group, radio group, newspaper group, internet publishing group and billboards, all in the same one market.
However, one first that McCotter will always have special honor for is in the aviation industry. McCotter’s Maverick Jets company is the first company in the world to have designed, built and sold what are called Very Light Jets or Personal Jets to customers in the United States and around the world. This series of Maverick Jets were called the LEADER JETS.
That was in the 90’s, but today McCotter, through Maverick Jets, is again making history with another first, the first jet company to make its “2nd Generation Personal Jet”…Maverick’s new SmartJET
The SmartJET is the least expensive jet to purchase and to operate in the world. Some truly believe the transportation explosion a hundred years ago could actually happen again today with the easiest flying and shortest takeoff/landing jet in the world . . . Maverick’s SmartJET.
McCotter has said, “though it is hard not to be excited about the financial future of the world’s first “2nd Generation Personal Jet”, what really excites me is to think of liberating the world, where millions can now honestly afford to own their own personal SmartJET . . . to safely, easily and very comfortably go any where they want, whenever they want, at a speed over 300 miles an hour, and at only about 10 miles a gallon! Helping a million people do that is really fun!” ... more
