Gurugram, September 12, 2025: 

AirFleet Managers, a leading Aviation Asset Management and Technical Advisory firm, has announced its appointment as the exclusive dealership partner of JMB Aircraft in India. Under this agreement, AirFleet Managers will handle all sales, customer service, and technical support for JMB’s cutting-edge aircraft across the country.

This strategic partnership brings JMB’s globally acclaimed aircraft models — the VL3, Evolution, and Phoenix — directly to Indian skies, providing both aviation enthusiasts and flight training schools access to world-class light sport and high-performance aircraft.

“Partnering with JMB Aircraft gives Indian aviation enthusiasts and flight schools access to a class-leading range of light and high-performance aircraft,” said Pallavi Joshi, CEO of AirFleet Managers. She further added,“JMB Aircraft fills a long-standing vacuum in the Indian market for modern, efficient, and reliable light sport and training aircraft. We look forward to delivering a seamless purchase and ownership experience to our customers.”

JMB Aircraft is renowned for its high-performance light and ultralight aircraft. The VL3, a flagship model, is powered by a Rotax 916iS engine (with 912, 912iS & 915iS options available), achieving top cruising speeds of 370 km/h with an empty weight of just 365 kg and output of 160 HP. This makes it ideal for both long-range flying and exhilarating sport use. The Evolution features turbine options and a carbon composite airframe for advanced performance, while the Phoenix offers a reliable Rotax 912 engine (100 HP) and a top speed of 180 km/h, making it an excellent choice for training and recreational use.

“This collaboration opens up new possibilities for Indian buyers who are seeking performance, reliability, and innovation in light aircraft,” said Vimal Priya, Co-Founder and Technical Director of AirFleet Managers.

AirFleet Managers will provide end-to-end support to JMB customers, including aircraft sales, import facilitation, pre-purchase inspections, delivery management, and ongoing after-sales service — leveraging its in-depth technical expertise and life-cycle management capabilities.

Mr. Matej Ugnr, from JMB Aircraft said,”We are delighted to appoint AirFleet Managers as our exclusive partner in India, a market that shows tremendous potential for high-performance light aircraft. India represents a dynamic and fast-growing aviation sector, and with AirFleet Managers’ expertise and reputation, we are confident that JMB Aircraft will achieve strong visibility and growth in the region. This partnership strengthens our commitment to expanding our footprint in Asia.”

Mr. Matej Ugnr further added,” Partnering with AirFleet Managers in India is a step we’re genuinely excited about. Their passion for aviation and deep understanding of the local market make them the perfect fit to represent JMB Aircraft. Together, we look forward to inspiring more pilots in Asia to experience the joy of flying our aircraft.”
