Matrix AirShare was created by an active aircraft owner and commercial pilot who has lived both sides of the equation: the desire for reliable access to a capable aircraft, and the realities of acquisition, maintenance, and operational risk.
We reverse the usual order: instead of asking you to fit into a pre-set program, we start with your mission profile, then design a fractional structure and aircraft choice around it.
The goal is simple: deliver the utility and control of aircraft ownership with a fraction of the capital outlay and administrative burden, while maintaining conservative safety and maintenance standards.
Matrix AirShare is led by Daniel Dicker, a New York–based businessman, aircraft owner, and commercial pilot. Operations are centered at Brookhaven Airport (KHWV) on Long Island, with a network of trusted maintenance providers and instructors in the region.
Daniel has experience across general aviation ownership, including complex single-engine aircraft, and is actively engaged with the evolving regulatory and operational requirements for structured ownership and potential Part 135 activity.
Business-led, aviation-fluent management
Fractional ownership only works when expectations are clear and economics are grounded in real-world experience. Matrix AirShare is structured around:
We separate acquisition, fixed, and variable costs so owners understand exactly what drives the hourly rate – and what reserves are being funded for future engine, prop, and major maintenance events.
Piston aircraft are extraordinary tools when flown within their weather and performance envelopes. We emphasize conservative decision-making and contingency planning in all program materials.
Management fees are designed to reward long-term aircraft health and owner satisfaction, not short-term utilization at any cost.
We articulate from the outset where and how the aircraft will be based, scheduled, and crewed so that each owner has confidence in availability and control.
