Industry veterans and long time business colleagues Peter Bouwer & Dale Woodcock have joined forces to form the Cape Town based business aviation services company, African Executive Aviation (Pty) Ltd.

The new company will leverage its robust network connectivity to provide bespoke business aviation consultancy, air charter and aftermarket distribution services according to Bouwer. Further, it will align with Aircraft Sales & Charter Operators, FBOs, Aircraft Maintenance Organizations, OEMs and the general Aftermarket Flight Support business in order to execute its business plan.

African Executive Aviation will be managed and operated alongside Bouwer & Woodcock’s other business portfolio - Emerald VIP Services South Africa (Pty) Ltd - which currently offers a suite of VIP concierge services for business and high end tourist groups arriving on private or commercial aircraft. Services include limousine transfers, helicopter charters, tailored guided tours and yacht hire with customers based in the USA, Europe and Russia.

Operations Director, Woodcock, commented “My many years in business and general aviation will serve us well in providing the highest possible service standards to our customers and I look forward to working alongside colleague Bouwer, who gained much experience whilst working for a FTSE250 company in the UK over the past 8 years, to deliver consistent high standards wherein we will exceed our customer’s expectations offering up unique consistent personalised engagement."
