  • 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. How we check operators.

About ATD Flight Systems

ATD Flight Systems has trained pilots since 1996 at Charles B. Wheeler Downtown Airport in Kansas City, Missouri. It runs an FAA Part 141 programme from private pilot to commercial, instructor and multi engine ratings, including an accelerated track of under nine months with links to regional airline recruiting.

Its training fleet of about 18 aircraft includes Piper Seminoles, Warriors, Archers and an Arrow and Cessna 172s, with two flight simulators, and it also lists air charter, with Cessna Citation XLS jets on its certificate.

ATD is mainly a flight school rather than a charter operator, so this profile is listed for reference.

Booking

How booking works with Altivo Jets

  1. 1
    Send your trip

    Route, dates, passengers and bags, plus any aircraft type you prefer.

  2. 2
    We check availability

    We ask licensed operators that can fly the trip, and compare aircraft, timing and price.

  3. 3
    Choose your aircraft

    Your quote names the operator and the aircraft before you confirm. Nothing is booked until you approve it.

  4. 4
    Fly

    The operator you choose flies the trip with its own crew and keeps operational control. Altivo Jets stays your contact before, during and after the flight.

Altivo Jets is an independent air charter broker. It does not own or operate aircraft and has no agreement with ATD Flight Systems. Every flight is operated by a properly licensed air carrier, which keeps operational control of the aircraft and is named on your quote.
