About Us
JAG Aviation was created to bridge a critical gap in the aviation sector - the need for independent, commercially-minded advisory services for airport operators, flight schools, and aviation investors.
Our founder, Garry Angus, brings over 50 years of experience in corporate treasury, forensic accounting, and aviation finance. He has guided airports, flight schools, and investors through high-stakes decisions including acquisitions, redevelopment plans, and complex financing arrangements.
We believe that aviation businesses deserve clarity and confidence when making major decisions. Our work blends financial modelling, regulatory navigation, and hands-on operational insight to ensure your project is viable - and future-proof.
