Private Jet Consultants
Advisors Who Have Operated the Aircraft.
Every transaction is led by principals with direct operational experience in the aircraft — not generalist consultants or junior associates. We have personally flown, inspected, acquired, and managed the aircraft we advise on.
Our Principals
The Team
Thirty years of commercial and business aviation experience spanning airline captaincy, VIP aircraft acquisition advisory, and pre-purchase inspection management across four continents. Ivan founded Integral Aviation Solutions Inc. to bring genuine operational expertise to aircraft transactions.
His hands-on experience with Gulfstream, Bombardier, and Cessna Citation platforms — combined with FAA designation authority — means every transaction benefits from the judgment of someone who has personally operated the aircraft, not just studied it.
Also President of Integral Aviation Solutions Inc. — ivanklugman.com
Aviation business executive and technical advisor with deep experience in aircraft acquisition advisory, pre-purchase inspection management, and maintenance programme oversight for Gulfstream, Bombardier Global, and Cessna Citation platforms.
Michael brings a combination of business acumen and hands-on technical knowledge that allows him to evaluate acquisition opportunities from both a financial and airworthiness perspective — a combination that is rare in the advisory space.

Independent. Experienced. Confidential.
We work with a small number of clients at any one time. Every enquiry is handled directly by a principal — not a junior associate or sales desk.
