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.
Company
About McKenzie Air Services
McKenzie Air Services is a helicopter company based in Suffolk, Virginia, in the Hampton Roads region. It says it has provided helicopter transport for more than fifteen years, and it flies a Bell 407 along with larger types.
Its executive charter flights use the Bell 407, a smooth single engine turbine helicopter widely used for business transport. The company also lists a Bell 412 for passengers, cargo and heavy lift, a Sikorsky S 76 for VIP, corporate, utility and overwater work, and a Sikorsky S 92 for overwater and multi mission flights. The S 92 is a large twin engine helicopter widely used offshore and chosen as the basis of the new Marine One presidential fleet.
Beyond executive charter, the company flies aerial cinematography and medium lift operations. The Bell 412 it lists has a long record in emergency medical, firefighting and public safety work around the world.
From Suffolk, a helicopter can reach Norfolk, Virginia Beach, Williamsburg, Richmond and the Outer Banks quickly, avoiding the bridge tunnels and traffic that slow travel around Hampton Roads.
