  • 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 Legacy Aviation

Legacy Aviation was founded in 2013 at Tea Airport, just off Interstate 29 south of Sioux Falls, South Dakota, with the aim of being the state's leading aviation company. It holds FAA certificates as a flight school, maintenance facility and on-demand air carrier.

Its charter fleet includes a Cessna Citation XLS midsize jet and a King Air 90 turboprop for business and leisure trips, with a Cessna 172 among its training aircraft. It runs what it says is the only Part 141 flight school in the Sioux Falls area, an FBO with full and self serve fuel, annual inspections and repairs by certified mechanics and Garmin avionics upgrades.

For Sioux Falls travellers, Tea Airport offers a quick departure without the terminal at Sioux Falls Regional.

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