  • An FAA Part 135 certificate is the approval a company needs to fly on-demand charter for hire in the United States. Before issuing it, the FAA reviews the company's manuals, pilots, training, maintenance programme and every aircraft it adds, and its inspectors keep auditing the operation. An aircraft flown privately under Part 91 cannot legally be sold to you as a charter. Altivo Jets books flights only with licensed operators and names the operator on every quote.

Company

About 40 Mile Air

40 Mile Air is a bush charter company in Tok, Alaska, on the Alaska Highway near the Canadian border, and has flown since 1959. It is owned and run by second generation bush pilots, lifelong Alaskans who know the Eastern Interior well.

Its fleet of about ten aircraft is built for remote flying: four Piper Super Cubs and Cessna 185, 206 and 207 bush planes that can land on ridge tops and gravel bars, a twin-engine Piper Navajo for longer trips and a Robinson R44 helicopter. It flies flightseeing and wildlife viewing over the Wrangell-St. Elias and Yukon-Charley Rivers preserves, the Alaska Range, Tetlin National Wildlife Refuge and the Fortymile Country, drops off rafting, hiking and hunting parties, runs scheduled trips to remote destinations and flies air ambulance missions.

For anyone planning a float trip, a backcountry hunt or a look at some of the least visited wilderness in North America, 40 Mile Air is one of the few operators based in the region.
