Company History
In 1993, Ronald Corrado fulfilled his dream of starting his own aviation business while also juggling a successful career as a cobra pilot and maintenance test officer for the United States Army. "Skyword" Aviation, as it was initially spelled, started out primarily as a helicopter business, offering rides, flight instruction, and aerial photography. Not long after, Ron obtained a 421 Cessna and began building a charter fleet. After years of growing and changing with the industry demands, Skyward Aviation now offers 6 charter aircraft and manages a total of 14.
