In each edition of My Home Base, we feature a member of the Jet Linx team from across the country and showcase what they feel makes their Jet Linx location and their city special. In this edition, meet Ari Sarmento, Jet Linx System Chief Pilot

Favorite part of your job: Working with our crew members across the country on a daily basis. I also enjoy coming up with solutions to enhance our operations with the National Operations Center team, and then implementing those solutions across all Base locations.

Describe the Jet Linx experience in one word: Professional.

Favorite Jet Linx memory or experience: The day I returned to Jet Linx to fill the role of System Chief Pilot for the second time! Of all the Part 135 companies that I have flown for, Jet Linx is head and shoulders above the rest. From an operational and cultural standpoint, Jet Linx is the perfect place for me.

Favorite thing about Omaha: The Old Market area in downtown.

Little known fact about yourself, or favorite hobby: I am from a small island in the North Atlantic, Pico Azores, and speak fluent Portuguese
