Mike became interested in extending the concept of AirShares ownership to general aviation four years ago; in order to succeed, he has put together an unprecedented team to ensure AirShares Elite Ohio’s success.  He plans on making AirShares Elite Ohio his second successful business.

Joe Barthel , Sales Representative - jbarthel@AirSharesElite.com

Soon after beginning training, the club purchased a Cherokee Six.

He has logged 400+ hours through his flying activities.
