ABOUT AZIM SUMAR

 

Azim Sumar is currently the Chief Pilot and Director of Training for Volato, two responsibilities he says go hand in hand, with management being a vital component. 

 

Volato is the modern way to purchase and operate a private jet. We have created the most innovative model in private aviation, which has resulted in us becoming one of the category's fastest-growing firms. We provide the most profitable model. You share in the revenue every time your aircraft flies a paid mission, so your investment in your aircraft is limited to that, bringing the managed aircraft concept to fractional owners.
