Joe Howley and Brian Cleary

Brian Cleary

Brian flies S/N 733, tail N326V. After flying a TBM 700 for a while, Brian purchased his PC-12/47 in September 2006 to gain greater range and cabin comfort for his colleagues and clients. The aircraft is used almost exclusively for business and flies about 300 hours/year mostly up and down the Atlantic seaboard from Maine to Miami. The versatility of the Pilatus is perfectly suited for Brian's missions with 40% of the trips in the 300-500nm distance, 40% in the 500-1,500nm trips and 20% greater than 1,500nm. Brian owns several businesses that keep him regulary on the move. But when he has a chance to cool his heels, he can generally be found at his home on Longboat Key, Florida or at one of his business locations in Connecticut or Maine. Brian has been a member of POPA since 2006 and is delighted to serve the membership on the Board of Directors.

Joe Howley

I began flying in 1995 in a 172, and worked my way up the Cessna line (182, 210, 208) until purchasing S/N #755 in 2006. Along with my wife of 23 years, Christine and our 3 teenage children, we are in the process of flying all over the continent in search of a perfect landing. A Commodities Trader by profession since graduating from The Wharton Shcool in 1981 and an avid pilot for AngelFlight Northwest. I now live in Connecticut after 45 years in the great state of New Jersey.
