Commander Premier Aircraft Corporation was formed by over 50 owners of Commander aircraft in the spring of 2005. CPAC was formed to submit a bid to buy the assets of defunct Commander Aircraft Corporation from CAC’s bankruptcy trustee and produce new Commander aircraft and support the worldwide Commander aircraft fleet. CPAC’s bid was successful and, CPAC closed the acquisition at the end of June 2005.

The acquisition did not include a lease of CAC’s former facility in Oklahoma City and no appropriate space could be found within commuting distance of the Oklahoma City work force. After an intense search, the Company chose Cape Girardeau Regional Airport for its new home. All production equipment and inventory was moved to our new facility in late 2005 and is now fully set up for operations.

The board of directors of Commander Premier Aircraft Corporation consists of Mr. Joel M. Hartstone, President and CEO, Ms. Claudia S. Horn, Chief Financial Officer, Mr. Robert Tippens, an organizer of the Commander Owners Group (COG) and a primary organizer of the Company, and Mr. Gregory Walker, an active COG member.

CPAC’s operations in Cape Girardeau are under the oversight of Mr. Carl R. Gull, Vice President – Operations. Mr. John Canavan is CPAC’s Inventory and Purchasing Manager. Mr. Michael Bryant is CPAC’s PMA QA Manager.
