Arcadia Jets expands owner-flown expertise with addition of Blaze Grubbs

Arcadia Jets, a boutique aircraft sales and acquisitions firm, is proud to announce the addition of professional pilot Blaze Grubbs to its team—further strengthening the company's expertise in the owner-flown aircraft category. As demand continues to grow among owner-operators seeking efficiency, flexibility, and control, Arcadia Jets remains committed to providing specialized guidance tailored to this segment of the market. Blaze's real-world experience as both a pilot and aircraft owner brings a valuable, firsthand perspective to clients navigating aircraft ownership. Blaze enters the role with nearly 2,000 hours of total flight time and a deep-rooted background in aviation that began at age 16.

In addition to his ownership experience, Blaze has flown the Pilatus PC-12 professionally and has extensive experience in the Cirrus Vision Jet, giving him a well-rounded understanding of the transition path many owner-pilots take as they move into more advanced aircraft. "Owner-flown aircraft require a different level of insight and attention to detail, and Blaze brings exactly that," said Adam Hahn, CEO/Founder at Arcadia Jets. "He understands the mission, the financial considerations, and the operational realities because he's lived them. That perspective is invaluable to our clients." In his role at Arcadia Jets, Blaze will work closely with buyers and sellers in, helping clients evaluate aircraft options, understand total cost of ownership, and make informed acquisition and sales decisions with confidence.
