I just happened upon another interesting fictional character.

In "Quest of Qui" (a legendary place), Doc Savage tracks some bandits up to the private field of Thorpe Carleth. Carleth is a senior businessman who plays airplane entrepreneur. 30 years ago he was rich, but he never had too many clients and spent a lot buying the best planes. Although he no longer flies those himself, he rents them for high-risk, high-pay occasions such as confidential delivery runs, long-distance dare trips, adventurous treks in the Cold North and in Central America, and lessons in barely approved air stunts. Also he runs a small insurance business for those same risky games of the wealthy. He has had luck with his customers so far, and his passion for his company forbids him to ever stop.

Carleth lives in a Morrocan-style mansion on his airfield, above the Hudson river. It's a wide square of white walls with decorated iron grids, low turrets, and a sentry walk on each side. The inside offers quite a bit of comfort, thanks to the exotic furniture and trinkets from his early travels.

Even after being supposedly under siege by the bandits for two days, Carleth is still in his dressing gown with a monocle, though he is in quite a state. He has one loyal retainer, his calm and rotund butler Peabody.

A figure overall and departing from the usual businessman. I have yet to see how honest he is.
