Global Ties Aviation

Global Ties Aviation Inc is an aircraft appearance company founded in 2026 by Malik A. Arif and Malik M. Arif and incorporated in Delaware. Its crews detail aircraft where they are parked, at the hangar or FBO, and have worked on aircraft in the DMV (Washington, DC, Maryland and Virginia), Florida and Las Vegas, Nevada; the company says it can service aircraft in all 50 US states. Around the detailing business it is building a wider platform: GTA Academy, which trains and certifies aircraft detailers, a work network for verified specialists, a maintenance referral service and an aircraft marketplace.

Detailing services

The site documents 13 services, each with its own quality checkpoints, and says every job is written to an aircraft record with the products used and photographs:

• Exterior detailing and flight-ready turns between trips
• Brightwork polishing, paint correction, oxidation removal and belly degreasing
• Ceramic coating and paint protection film on compatible airframes
• Interior detailing and leather care, acrylic window polishing and mold remediation
• De-ice boot restoration and gear well detailing
• Care packages on a weekly to annual schedule, fleet programmes and on-site crews at partner facilities

The booking form covers piston and turboprop aircraft, light to heavy business jets, helicopters and VIP airliners. No prices are published; a representative confirms scope, price and timing before anything is scheduled.

Academy, network and marketplace

GTA Academy awards the Certified Aircraft Appearance Professional (CAAP) credential in three levels (foundation, interior and exterior), which the site describes as a professional certification issued by Global Ties Aviation and not an FAA certificate. The maintenance page connects owners with A&P mechanics, IA inspectors, avionics technicians and MRO shops in the GTA network, who quote and sign off the work under their own certificates; the company states it is not a repair station. The aircraft marketplace, listed as coming soon with a waitlist open, publishes only verified listings and charges the seller 2% on completion, with no listing fee and nothing payable by buyers. Rates change; confirm with the company.

Cirrus

The company lists the Cirrus SR22 as the smallest aircraft class its booking form takes, describing its scope as running from a Cirrus SR22 or King Air 350 to a Gulfstream G650 or BBJ. The site does not have a separate Cirrus page.
