BCI Aircraft’s early years
BCI Aircraft was founded on entrepreneurship, strategic leverage, equity and a commitment to shareholders. In part by working with leading carriers and businesses that could offer safely solid returns, BCI Aircraft quickly grew into one of the fastest-expanding commercial aircraft trading organizations in the industry.

Some of BCI Aircraft’s achievements have included buying and placing part of the Delta Airlines fleet and scoring a 15-plane acquisition from US Airways that gained BCI Aircraft major industry notice. BCI Aircraft has grown even in troubled times for the aviation industry, including the period following the Sept. 11 attacks.

BCI Aircraft founder
BCI Aircraft founder Brian Hollnagel took his first flying lessons at age 15 and earned his multi-engine pilot license in 1992, graduating from Purdue University in 1995 with a degree and education in aviation technology, leasing and finance. BCI Aircraft was born when Brian Hollnagel, only four years out of college, was able to raise $5 million from local investors to buy his first airplanes.
