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 Gorge Winds Aviation
Gorge Winds Aviation is a flight school, aircraft rental business and fixed base operator at Troutdale Airport, on the western edge of the Columbia River Gorge east of Portland, Oregon. It was founded in 1988 to provide flight training, and a Cessna 182 Skylane is listed on its FAA certificate.
The school trains pilots under Part 61, from student pilot through to flight instructor. Its programmes cover the private pilot licence, instrument rating, commercial licence, multi engine add on, flight instructor ratings and the airline transport licence.
Its discovery flights last about an hour with a certified flight instructor. Passengers can take the controls as much as they like, and the flight counts as the first lesson in their logbook. Flights from Troutdale often head east up the gorge, with views of waterfalls, basalt cliffs and Mount Hood.
After a checkout flight, qualified pilots can rent aircraft from its fleet, and the company also runs FBO services at the airport. Gorge Winds Aviation is a flight school rather than a charter operator, so this profile is listed for reference.
