The Citation Jet Pilots Owner Pilot Association (CJP) has named Trent Corcia as its CEO. He steps into the role formerly held by Andrew Broom, who is joining NBAA on June 11 as senior v-p of strategy, marketing, and innovation.

Corcia joins CJP after spending nearly a decade with FlightSafety International, where he led sales and marketing efforts to the owner/operator and single-pilot segments. Corcia has also held positions with American Airlines and served as a U.S. Air Force C-130 instructor/evaluator, navigator, and mission commander. He has accrued more than 4,000 flight hours and holds an airline transport pilot rating, along with type ratings in the Cessna Citation Mustang, Hawker 800XP, and Gulfstream GV.

“Trent is well-positioned to continue serving CJP membership in the future,” said its chairman, Randy Broiles. “He has a long background in aviation, including leadership, communication, and tactical strategic planning.”

In his new role, Corcia will be tasked with strengthening CJP’s relationships with its members, partner companies, and the broader general aviation owner and pilot community.

“Having a direct relationship with CJP and the membership since 2016, I fully embrace our mission of safety, interaction, advocacy, and philanthropy. CJP is a strong organization, and I look forward to working closely with CJP members and partners to achieve even greater success in the years to come,” he said.
