Steve Wright Named Vice President Blackcomb Aviation

Blackcomb Aviation’s Chief Executive Officer, Sacha McLean, today announced that Steve Wright has been appointed Vice President. This appointment coincides with the expansion of Blackcomb Aviation’s fleet and executive travel services in response to renewed interest from the public and private sector in jet and helicopter charters, and aircraft management services.
