Your Aviation Solutions Team

Kyle White - President
Kyle discovered his passion for all things aviation after experiencing his first airplane ride while working on the aviation merit badge in scouting. After he earned the rank of Eagle Scout, he pursued his pilots license at the local airport. He paid for his licenses and ratings by washing as many as five airplanes each Saturday. Kyle started working in a corporate flight department, for a Fortune 50 company, while still in high school. His initial position was aircraft maintenance assistant and by the age of 22 he was a Captain on the King Air B200 and an SIC in the Beechjet 400A and Challenger 600. While working his way up in the flight department, he pursued a degree in Professional Aeronautics from Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University. Upon the closing of the corporation’s flight department Kyle was seeking a career revolving around his love for aviation, but with more stability. This lead to the aviation insurance industry and a position with, at the time, the world’s largest insurance brokerage firm. In August 2004, having an entrepreneur spirit and an understanding of the insurance and aviation industry, Kyle founded Aviation Solutions, LLC. Kyle is a current Certified Multi-Engine Instrument Flight Instructor, FAASTeam Lead Representative, and former President of the Kansas City Business Aviation Association. When he is not solving his customers insurance and risk management concerns he enjoys spending time with his wife and three sons, as well as golfing and lake activities such as fishing and boating. Kyle and his family also value time with their church and giving back to their community through several local organizations.

Carl Grimmett - Insurance Broker and Risk Specialist
Carl has been surrounded by aviation his entire life. His father bought the family’s first aircraft when Carl was nine years old. After growing up ‘hanging around’ airports throughout his youth it was natural for him to solo when he turned 16 and take his private pilot check ride when he was 17. Carl has owned numerous aircraft from Pitts’ to Piper Twin Comanches’ throughout his life. In 1963 his father purchased a 1947 J3 Cub that the family still owns and keeps at their private grass strip. Currently, Carl owns a J Model Bonanza that he enjoys flying for both pleasure and business. Carl has also worked as a professional pilot flying Beechjets and King Airs under Part 91 and 135 operating rules. With Carl’s vast aviation experience, ranging from aircraft ownership to professional flying, there is no doubt your insurance policy is in good hands. Carl serves as more than in insurance broker to his clients, he is also an invaluable aviation resource. When Carl is not working hard for his customers, or hanging around the local airport, he enjoys spending time with his wife, two children and their spouses, and grandchildren at Lake of the Ozarks. He may even find time to finish his 1936 Ford Hot Rod one day!

Sharon Agee - Insurance Broker and Risk Specialist
Sharon has over 30 years of aviation insurance experience.  She began her career in the aviation insurance claims department and quickly became manager.  She then became an aviation broker, specializing in agricultural risks (Ag).  When the agency she was working for was sold to a Managing General Agent for an insurance company, she was quickly promoted to Underwriter.  She was a full lines aviation insurance Underwriter for approximately 17 years.  When they closed their Kansas City Regional office, she became their Territorial Underwriter for 7 States in the Midwest.  She finally quit after 2 years of being the Territorial Underwriter because the company was expecting her to travel 4 and 5 days a week.  She still had a small one at home so chose to quit and become an Agent.  She has now been an agent since 1995.  She loves the challenge of being an Agent/Broker with her top priority being getting the best, most comprehensive coverage for each and every one of her clients. 

Jeff McClaran - Insurance Broker and Risk Specialist
Jeff fell in love with anything to do with airplanes as a small child. He was constantly exposed to it since his mother, Sharon Agee (above), and her husband were both in aviation insurance.  At the age of 15, he was presented with two choices, work at a local airport as a line boy or work at a Christian youth ranch as a ranch hand.  Jeff accepted the position at the youth ranch and set out on a course to become a minister, and is glad he did, as he met his wife while being a missionary in Hong Kong.  Once returning to the states, with added responsibilities, he took a career in sales and worked with several Fortune 500 companies in sales management, marketing and customer service.  He never forgot about his love for airplanes and flying.  In 2008 he decided to take the risk and leave the corporate giant and join Aviation Insurance Corp (which merged with Aviation Solutions in 2010) and fulfill the longtime dream of working in aviation.  Jeff is currently working on his pilot's license and hopes to someday rejoin the missionary field as a part-time missionary pilot.  He is completely dedicated to Aviation Solutions' high level concierge-type service that they are dedicated to provide all their clients.
