About Bob Taylor
Bob got his start in aviation in 1998 when he assisted the Roth family in operating Executive Aircraft Corporation following the tragic passing of Stan Roth. Mr. Taylor credits Jan Roth and the Roth Family with his passion for aviation.
Additionally, Bob went on to spin off and form Executive Airshare through his novel idea of reinventing how Fractional Ownership works. Unlike the traditional method of using aircraft by the hours, Taylor introduced a days ownership approach. Undoubtedly, this changed business aviation functionality, breathing new life into general aviation. Afterwards, Mr. Taylor helped move the Airshare HQ to Kansas City while ensuring a large presence is maintained in Wichita. Now Airshare, Bob has made a significant impact on aviation through his business work.
