MOORESVILLE, N.C. – Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series champion and Joe Gibbs Racing driver Martin Truex Jr. has launched MTJ Aviation, a part 135 private charter company.

MTJ Aviation is an ARGUS Gold certified Part 135 charter operator, based in Mooresville, N.C. The organization is a private charter aviation company that caters to clients that prioritize safety and care about cost.

MTJ Aviation’s chief pilot, Guy Cooper, has more than 15 years of experience in corporate aviation, including time as a jet captain at Delta Private Jets with experience managing and flying a wide variety of corporate turbine aircraft.

MTJ Aviation’s line pilots have extensive experience in a wide range of aviation fields including major airlines, corporations and the United States Military.

MTJ Aviation’s Director of Maintenance, Ron Dietz II, has more than 20 years of experience as an airframe and power plant technician. His background includes maintenance with fleet operators, such as Flight Options, US Airways and multiple charter operations.

“I decided to launch a private aviation charter company because of our experience flying to
NASCAR races every weekend over the last decade or so,” said Truex. “MTJ Aviation offers a refreshing alternative because there are no fractional ownerships, memberships or long-term contracts; we simply fly you from point A to point B safely at a reasonable cost.”
