About Talon Aero

With over 17 years of military service and more than 3,500 flight hours, Devin Ivy brings deep operational experience across multiple aircraft, including the B-1B, MC-12, T-6A, and every variant of the T-38. His career has been built on precision, safety, and performance — qualities he now brings to every mission at Talon Aero Services. As both a military and commercial airline pilot, he understands what it takes to keep legacy aircraft flying safely and effectively.

Devin Ivy founded Talon Aero Services, LLC after seeing how the T-38’s retirement horizon kept moving further away as the T-7’s entry into service was delayed. The T-38 has been a cornerstone of his flying career, and he wanted to ensure this remarkable aircraft continues to be operated, maintained, and respected with the same level of professionalism it has always deserved.
