The IAS Team
Every member of the IAS team has spent decades working at the highest levels of commercial and private aviation — as pilots, engineers, and aviation business executives.
Our People
We are a boutique firm by design. Clients work directly with senior professionals — not associates or account managers. That's our commitment.
Captain Ivan Klugman is the founder of Integral Aviation Solutions Inc. and brings decades of hands-on aviation experience to every engagement. A typed Boeing captain with thousands of flight hours, he has led aircraft acquisitions, VVIP completions, and asset management projects for governments, royal families, and corporate clients across four continents.
His direct operational background — as both a working pilot and a seasoned aviation business executive — gives IAS clients an advisor who understands aviation from the flight deck to the boardroom.
Michael Bonventre is an FAA-appointed International Designated Airworthiness Representative (DAR-T), one of a select group of professionals authorized to issue FAA airworthiness certificates on behalf of the Federal Aviation Administration for export and import transactions worldwide.
His appointment enables IAS clients to complete international aircraft transactions with the efficiency and confidence of having an FAA representative directly engaged in the certification process.
IAS maintains a vetted network of aviation professionals — maintenance technicians, avionics specialists, legal counsel, and local regulatory experts — across North America, Europe, the Middle East, and Asia. This network enables us to provide on-the-ground representation wherever our clients' aircraft are located.
Our Principles
We never represent sellers or completion centers. Our sole obligation is to the client — structurally and philosophically conflict-free.
Our advisors have flown the aircraft, inspected the engines, and managed the completions. We know the difference between what a specification says and what you actually receive.
Clients include governments and royal families. Discretion is not a feature — it is a fundamental requirement of every engagement we undertake.
