With a penchant for sales and international travel, Masithokoze Moyo-Thompson founded Angel Wings Aviation in 2008.

We have access to almost an infinite range of luxurious private jets and executive helicopters available through the most reliable jet charter operators around the world.” As chief executive officer, Mrs. Moyo-Thompson provides clients with private jets and executive helicopters, networks with pilots, and custom tailors services to clients, all within as little as 24-hours notice. Her daily responsibilities include managing a staff of 18 people in the sales and operations departments, approving all aspects of business operations, and handling security for the company. Mrs. Moyo-Thompson holds a private pilot’s license, which she completed in 2006. In pursuit of higher education, she is also completing an MBA at Robert Kennedy College while simultaneously running her business.

Mrs. Moyo-Thompson is the founder of The Masithokoze Foundation, and an affiliate of Women In Corporate Aviation, Women in Aerospace, Business Networking South Africa, and International Aviation Women’s Association. In her spare time, she enjoys networking – she calls herself a “serial networker” and blogging and writing.
Knowledgeable, Pragmatic, Motivational. Generous. Those are just some of the words which spring to mind when chatting to Networking Guru, Karl Smith who will facilitate the launch of Angel Wings Aviation’s first European operation on the 30 March 2012. The event to be hosted by the Hilton Hotel in Manchester and will feature aviation gurus in the United Kingdom, as well as delegates from all over the globe.
