Jaynee in Washington State called to ask… how easy (or difficult) it is to get in and out of our airplanes.
She and her husband wanted to take a sightseeing flight but his back sometimes bothered him. Since explaining the process is more difficult that showing her how to get in and out, we told her we’d just make a video.
As promised, here it is: The video showing how to get in and out of our airplanes.
Thanks for calling Jaynee. We hope you have a great anniversary cruise and look forward to seeing you when you pull in to Port Everglades!
Hey Aviation Fans! We need your help… our happy designers… no wait – we don’t have airplane paint scheme designers… Bob and I have been hard at work with designing a paint scheme for the Cessna Cardinal.
These are the finalists. Help us choose a winner! Is it number 1 or number 2?
We are now available for air charter service throughout the 48 contiguous United States!
Yesterday was a whirlwind of activity as we received notice that our Air Carrier Certification was complete. The final requirement was to review and sign the Operations Specifications (“OpSpecs”), which outline in detail what we are and are not authorized to do.
Federal Requirements for Air Charter Service
An FAA air carrier certificate is only part of what is required to offer and conduct an air charter service. Operations Specifications must be signed for and maintained. An “exclusive use” airworthy aircraft must be in the operator’s control. All safety-sensitive staff, including your pilot, must be tested for certain drugs, must have received a negative result and must also subject themselves to random drug and alcohol tests. Proof of insurance, by regulation, must be sent to DOT before DOT will grant economic authority to operate. And all of this must be in place before beginning service as an air charter operator.
Because of the number and type of aircraft we use in our air charter service, we are considered an “Air Taxi” and not a “Commuter” or “Scheduled Airline.”
It has been a journey, applying for this air carrier certificate, but one well worth the time and effort. Announcements have been sent:
Fort Lauderdale-based Skymax announces 135 Air Carrier Certification. Begins air charter service in Fort Lauderdale, Florida.
We look forward to serving you safely, professionally and reliably!
Getting an Air Charter Certificate in South Florida takes time.
Via email this morning, our Principal Operations Inspector told us our Certification Package is being reviewed by a Frontline Manager at the South Florida Flight Standards District office.
We’re almost there!
As of this writing, it has taken almost three years for our air charter application to get this far at the South Florida Flight Standards District Office (“the FSDO”).
Part 135 Certification Process
Having developed our Part 135 Air Charter compliance package from scratch, I can tell you it was been a huge learning experience. Organization is key from the start. FAA has a specific structure that they expect applicants to follow. That structure forms the Table of Contents and the Section Dividers for the application binder. Because documents are required at different times throughout the process and because the availability of people fluctuates (think FAA personnel and your own availability), a Schedule of Events is necessary. If you’ve never been through this process, this is where it gets hairy…
