LD Aviation

When it comes to business aviation, precision is non-negotiable and margins for error are razor-thin. In such a scenario, you need a partner who helps every mission to take off without any disruption. Enter LD Aviation, that trusted ally behind the scenes who keeps everything running flawlessly while passengers board, pilots prep, and operators execute flight plans with precision.

Founded by Lindsay Dyer, LD Aviation is more than just a scheduling and dispatch vendor. They are a strategic partner that offers full-spectrum operational support to private and corporate flight departments. From charter operations and Part 91 flight departments to international corporate fleets, the team delivers proactive, hands on solutions tailored to the unique rhythm of each client’s operation.

“I like to think of us as the power behind the wings,” says Dyer, Founder and President. “When we do our job well, no one sees us. That’s by design.”

A True Operational Partner

Weather disruptions, customs complexities, fatigue compliance, last-minute reroutes can quickly derail operations in the aviation space. LD Aviation stands out for its ability to provide stability, responsiveness, and 24/7 support. The company centralizes scheduling, dispatch, accounting, international handling, and aviation-specific financial services under one roof, providing measurable cost savings and freeing up internal teams to focus on what they do best.

Unlike traditional vendors or in-house solutions, LD Aviation’s model is designed for adaptability. Each client is assigned a dedicated point of contact who understands their operation inside and out. Whether a flight department needs round-the-clock support or just a few hours a week, LD Aviation scales effortlessly to match the demand without any long-term contracts or HR headaches involved.

“We’re not a one-size-fits-all service,” says Dyer. “Whether a client needs full-scale scheduling or temporary relief during peak seasons or staff transitions, we flex with them. That kind of agility is hard to replicate internally.”

Solving the Problems That Others Can’t

For many operators, the value of LD Aviation becomes most apparent when things don’t go as planned. The company’s ability to excel under pressure is demonstrated by the way it handles international customs filings across multiple timezones, manages crew legality and duty limits, or weekend coverage involving critical mission sensitive changes.

One case in point came when a client’s sole scheduler resigned unexpectedly on a Friday, yet LD Aviation was fully operational and managing flight activity by Monday morning. Another department had pilots juggling scheduling, reporting, and administrative tasks that quickly led to burnout and operational risks. By offloading those responsibilities to LD Aviation, the department restored efficiency, reduced turnover, and improved safety margins.

“We also support flight departments with heavy international travel,” adds Dyer. “When their internal teams need downtime or are spread across time zones, we cover the gaps so they can stay rested and ready.”

A Collective Depth of Expertise

What truly sets LD Aviation apart is its talent. The team includes seasoned flight dispatchers, charter schedulers, airline veterans, and Certified Aviation Managers. Several hold MBAs, and all share a common ethos to deliver quality service, solve problems before they surface, and treat every client’s operation as if it were their own.

Most clients rarely benefit from a collective intelligence of a full operations team. This pooling of knowledge is difficult and expensive to build in-house, especially for smaller or growing departments.

“Smart operators don’t just look at hourly rates,” Dyer notes. “They look at value per mission. With us, they get elite-level service and operational foresight, without the fixed overhead.”

A Business Model Built for the Real World

LD Aviation’s pricing structure is as pragmatic as its service model: pay for what you use. Clients avoid the financial burden of full-time salaries, benefits, training, and overtime, while gaining access to an enterprise-grade team. The company offers predictable monthly pricing, no hidden fees, and immediate scalability, making it an intelligent alternative to hiring, training, and retaining in-house schedulers.

At the core of LD Aviation is a values-driven culture rooted in trust, respect, and proactive ownership. The company is proudly female-led in a field still largely dominated by men, and it brings a fresh perspective to leadership and client engagement.

“We hire people who thrive under pressure, care deeply about the mission, and understand that our success is tied to our clients’ success,” says Dyer.

Building the Future: Aviation Accounting and Global Reach

As the company looks to the future, it’s preparing to launch Aviation Accounting as a Service, a new platform aimed at streamlining financial operations for Part 91 and Part 135 operators. The offering will include budget forecasting, invoicing, financial tracking, and reconciliation, all tailored to aviation’s unique requirements.

LD Aviation also plans to expand internationally, with an overseas office in development to better support its growing global clientele. Strategic vendor partnerships are another key focus, enhancing the company’s ability to offer even more seamless, end-to-end solutions.

At every level, LD Aviation is guided by its mission: “We do the hard, invisible work so others can shine.” From helping a single aircraft operator scale safely, to supporting global departments through complex logistical hurdles, the company is redefining what it means to be a back-end partner in business aviation.
