In addition to offering and supporting the PC-12 and PC-24 aircraft throughout Canada, Levaero is committed to growing its pre-owned aircraft brokerage business globally. Kuliavas has represented several original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) over the course of his career, and his experience and customer-first approach will allow Levaero to be an immediate authority in the pre-owned aircraft space.
“I’ve admired Levaero’s dedication to customer service and its diverse service offering from afar throughout my career,” said Kuliavas. “To be part of one of Canada’s most competitive aviation providers is an exciting milestone.”
