About Coy Comontofski

While attending The University of Texas, in 1996 Coy took the first step in his pilot career and earned his private pilots license. The path ahead was to marry his new-found passion of flight with his Business and Economics degrees. After earning his Instrument Rating, Single and Multi-Engine Commercial Licenses, Certified Instrument Flight Instructor Licenses in both Single and Multi-Engine Aircraft, and finally the Airline Transport Pilot (ATP) rating, Coy has now flown over hours of total flight time, mostly in high performance turbo-prop and private jet aircraft. While building into a professional pilot, Coy positioned himself as an aircraft sales professional. Today, Coy is an aviation businessman with a proven track record of exceeding expectations through the development of lasting relationships with integrity and ethical business practices. As a one-man team he successfully grew a satellite branch of a fractional aviation company from two piston aircraft in 2009 to nine piston and turbo-prop aircraft in 2013. Today, with the same passion it took to build himself into a professional pilot and successful aircraft salesman, Coy is the President and owner of LIFT Aviation Company.
