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 Modesto Executive Air Charter
Modesto Executive Air Charter runs Modesto Jet Center at Modesto Airport in California's Central Valley. It combines a full service FBO, with its own terminal and line crew, with on-demand charter for travellers in the Central Valley and the wider San Francisco Bay Area.
The charter fleet is made up of light and midsize jets and turboprops, sized for trips around California and the West, and the company says it keeps adding aircraft. Owners can place their aircraft under its management, which covers trip planning, maintenance, crews, fuelling, hangar storage and cleaning, across Northern California and beyond. It also brokers aircraft sales and offers detailing, maintenance and avionics work.
Its charter fleet holds an ARGUS Gold rating. For Bay Area travellers, flying from Modesto avoids the busier airports closer to the city.
