Air Dash CEO Appointed Chairman of Guyana’s Private Sector Commission

Capt. Gerald Gouveia Jnr.

At Air Dash, we understand that real progress isn’t just about moving people—it’s about helping move a nation forward.

We are proud to celebrate a defining moment in our journey: our CEO, Captain Gerald Gouveia Jr., has been appointed Chairman of the Private Sector Commission (PSC) of Guyana.

This appointment goes beyond personal achievement—it signals the increasing importance of private sector leadership in shaping Guyana’s democratic, economic, and institutional future.

From Cockpit to Commission: Leading with Purpose

Under Gerald’s leadership, Air Dash has evolved from a bold idea into a transformative aviation solution—connecting coastal and interior regions, offering 24/7 executive flight services, and opening new corridors for business, tourism, and emergency response.

As CEO of Air Dash and a senior leader at Roraima Airways, Gerald has long championed innovation and accessibility in regional air mobility. Now, as PSC Chairman, he brings that same vision and results-driven approach to the national stage.

One of his first major priorities? Revitalizing the PSC’s elections monitoring program ahead of Guyana’s 2025 vote.

In a recent interview with OilNOW, Gerald underscored the Commission’s renewed focus:

“We really just want fair, free and efficient elections.”

We stand behind that mission.

Why It Matters

A strong, stable democracy is the bedrock of sustainable growth. Ensuring free and fair elections fosters investor confidence, business stability, and citizen trust. That’s why the PSC’s plan to revive its observer network and engage the wider private sector is a critical step toward reinforcing democratic integrity.

Guyana’s 2020 elections reminded us all just how vital and fragile our institutions can be. Today, Gerald and one of the youngest PSC executive teams in recent history are stepping up with renewed energy and a commitment to national progress.

The Air Dash Perspective

Whether we’re flying you across the coast or into Guyana’s remote interior, every flight at Air Dash is powered by precision, trust, and responsibility. We know that safe, reliable air travel is just one part of building a modern, inclusive, and future-ready Guyana.

Gerald’s appointment is a reminder that aviation and governance aren’t separate tracks—they’re both part of the same journey toward a stronger country.

We’re not just here to change how people travel. We’re here to help move Guyana forward—on the ground, in the air, and at the highest levels of leadership.

Congratulations, Chairman Gouveia. Your team is proud. The country is watching. The work continues.
