Jim Ziegler, who had a long career leading Bombardier Learjet in Wichita, is leaving Jet Aviation, where he’s been working as chief operating officer of U.S. operations since 2007. Ziegler had moved from Wichita to St. Louis for the position. Under his leadership, the Zurich, Switzerland-based company significantly expanded its presence in the U.S. with the acquisition of Savannah Air Center and is expanding its aircraft management and charter operations in Brazil.
Ziegler is becoming an advisor to Jet Aviation and plans to return to Wichita and his consulting business sometime this spring.
