Wheels Up For Adam Aircraft - Doll Capital/Friends Pony Up $92M
Thanks to terrorism, commercial aviation sucks. Anyone who can afford to fly private will do it and light jets are all the rage.
Light jets can seat 6 to 8 people, cost between $1M and $4M, have a range of about 1K miles, and land on small runways.
Englewood, CO-based Adam competes with Honda and Cesna which are entering the market as well as Albuquerque-based Eclipse Aviation which sells less-luxurious jet than Adam’s. Eclipse has raised over $300M in funding, but Adam claims $800M in backlogged orders.
In this round of financing Doll Capital is joined by Mesirow Financial, W Capital Partners, DEShaw, Acadia Woods Partners, Goldman Sachs and Hunt Growth Capital.
