Mike Baehr, Regional Director – mbaehr@AirSharesElite.com

Mike Baehr has had an interest in aviation since he was young.  He acquired his private pilot’s license at age nineteen.  In 1983 he graduated from medical school at Ohio State University.  After three years of residency at Mt Carmel Medical Center in family medicine, Dr. Baehr opened a solo family medical practice in a suburb of Columbus, Ohio.  Mike managed and expanded the office into a seven provider multi –million dollar practice.  He is currently the senior managing partner of Family Physician of Gahanna and the practice continues to grow and thrive under his management.

Mike also is an FAA Certified Senior Medical Examiner.  He serves as the company physician of the largest fractional ownership company in business jet aircraft. 

In 2002 Mike purchased his first Cirrus SR22 and has accumulated over 500 hours flying time.  He received his Instrument Rating prior to purchasing the Cirrus SR22 and spends at least 15% of his flight time in further training and proficiency.  Mike is very familiar with what is required to manage the needs and upkeep of Cirrus aircraft.

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.  Mike started AirSharesElite in Ohio from a startup company two years ago, and has expanded the business with five aircraft serving Ohio with over 27 owners.  Mike expects even more success and a long term relationship in the Phoenix area and is very excited to bring the AirShares Elite concept to Arizona.   

Charles Macarthy , Regional Director – cmacarthy@AirSharesElite.com

Charles Macarthy has been an aviation enthusiast since he was five years old. It was only fate that one day Charles would be able to combine his very successful business and sales background with his childhood dream of becoming a pilot and working directly in the aviation industry.

In 1991, Charles was a regional sales manager for a very prestigious automobile company where he utilized his strong financial and client relationship skills. In 1996, Charles contracted with Rainbow Babies and Children’s Hospital where he worked as an emergency medical technician on life flight helicopters. While the helicopters were not airplanes, Charles was getting closer to his dream. In 2003, Charles graduated from Myers University in Cleveland, Ohio with a graduate degree in financial planning.

In 2004, Charles became a Partner in a National Financial Planning firm. Along with his two other Partners, this firm was one of the most successful firms in the Cleveland area. In 2006, Charles and one of his existing Partners branched off to form their own comprehensive financial and risk management firm.

By owning his own firm, Charles finally has the time and flexibility to pursue his pilot’s license and dream of flying his own airplanes.  Today, AirSharesElite Arizona maintains Charles’s indomitable spirit and entrepreneurial bent. Charles’s handpicked staff carries on a tradition of excellence in every aspect of the aviation business – reflecting their deep sense of loyalty to the company and to the standards set by Charles, and by his business partner, Mike Baehr.
