An example of leadership at Florida Air Cargo occurs every day at a table in a hot airport warehouse where the CEO sits surrounded by mechanics and pilots. Sergio, who has over forty years in this business, came up through the maintenance ranks to own and operate Florida Air Cargo. Lunch-table meetings are a daily routine. The time means sharing plans for the next day and readying the fleet, thus fulfilling a promise to a customer in the Caribbean. By the end of lunch everyone at the table is as familiar with the customer as they are with the industrial fan blowing on them.

Dennesha is the first to tell you she learned about aviation from the ground up. She came aboard as secretary two years ago armed with an AA degree as a legal assistant, along with three years of skills as a corporate concierge in downtown Miami.  Now as office manager, she routinely clears flights with Customs and Border Protection, as well as keeps everyone else looking smart.

The longevity of the DC-3 is possible thanks to the resolve and dedication of pilots such as Keith. He is one of those aviators who actually know how to fix what he flies, as he is both a licensed pilot and A&P mechanic.  He also holds a Bachelor’s degree in aeronautical science. Keith has been with Florida Air Cargo since its inception in 2003.

Captain Alex has racked up over 6,000 hours in various airplanes, more than half of which have been in the cockpit of a DC-3. Most of his time aloft has been in Caribbean airspace. Alex was graduated with an industrial engineer’s degree from the University of Havana. After flying for a few local freight carriers, Alex came aboard Florida Air Cargo in 2008. In addition to chief pilot duties, Alex also leads the company’s ground and flight instruction for the Cessna Caravan and DC-3.

It used to be that callers to Florida Air Cargo were welcomed by Martin’s commanding voice.  That’s because in addition to flying, he did double-duty as office secretary. We like him in the air. He’s been flying as first officer since August 2018.

A longtime pilot, Roberto received his pilot wings at Moody Air Force Base, Georgia, in 1963 and has flown throughout the US and Central America.  He came aboard Florida Air Cargo as a first officer in 2016.

Our newest addition to our staff, Vicente already has a lot of flying hours in his career. His extensive knowledge in aircrafts allows him to be versatile in his role.

Manolo’s partner, the other wizard.

One of our masters of forklifting and securing bulky cargo no matter how oddly sized.
