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.

About Butler Aircraft Company
Butler Aircraft has served Oregon since 1946 from Prineville in the central part of the state. Its customers see it as dependable, and its mission is to exceed their expectations.
Its Cessna 182 and 206 aircraft fly aerial fire detection under contract to the Oregon Department of Forestry and other state and federal agencies, patrolling forests and rangelands during fire season to spot new fires early and guide crews to them.
Butler Aircraft flies fire detection rather than passenger charter, so this profile is listed for reference.
