Paul Ricchiazzi is the President of RICCHIAZZI AVIATION, LLC,
and the new FBO at Cable Airport across from Maniac Mike's Café and next to Precision Survey Supply! Services offered range from: Custom Framing, Aerial Photography, Scenic Flights, Custom Aviation Design, Aviation Art, Aviation Novelty, and Aviation Supply. We offer Alpha Industries flight and other style jackets, Scheyden Precision Eyewear, pilot supplies, watches, novelty items, flight training supplies, snack items, Lil' Drug Store products and other convenience items will be added as well.
The idea for this Aviation Variety store stems back to Paul's days of being a flight instructor here at Cableair (1995 – 2000) and noticing a void in some of the services offered at Cable Airport. During that time, the long term goal for Paul was one of being an airline pilot, and he made it as far as Captain for Chautauqua Airlines before the tragic events of 9-11. Paul immediately was delegated to the role of First Officer after that day due to the major cutbacks the airlines endured. After continuing on the career path for almost 2 more years, no longer with the feeling of purpose or making a difference, Paul felt a career change was a possibility and necessary.
Career stability and satisfaction quickly became the priority for Paul and he decided to pursue a more stable career path and industry (law enforcement). Paul applied to only one agency to start the process and just 4 months later was recruited by the Los Angeles Police Department. Hard to believe that all took place just over 9 years ago, with no regrets.
Paul has kept active flying through all the years and in 2009 purchased his first airplane (a Cessna 172), for pleasure and the purpose of providing Scenic Flights and Aerial Photography; leading to the start of Ricchiazzi Aviation, LLC. Fast forward to present day – Ricchiazzi Aviation, LLC and Bledsoe's Aviation Art have come to an agreement for Ricchiazzi Aviation, LLC to purchase Bledsoe's Aviation Art business located at Cable Airport. Stop by the store and see the transformation as we evolve from an exclusive Aviation Art business into a broader variety of aviation novelty and supply.
Paul looks forward to eventually meeting everyone based here at Cable over the next few months. "It feels good to be back after all these years! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!"
