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 North Star Aviation
North Star Aviation is a fixed base operator and flight school in Mankato, Minnesota, in the Minnesota River valley south west of the Twin Cities, with a second location at New Ulm Municipal Airport. Its flight school provides the flight training for the four year aviation degree at Minnesota State University, Mankato, with simulators and reduced airline transport pilot minimums for graduates. Its fleet includes Piper Cherokee and Archer training aircraft.
As an FBO, the company offers fuel, a pilot shop and amenities, and it runs corporate flight services and aircraft management. Its maintenance department includes an avionics repair station, parts, piston maintenance and a jet maintenance shop.
The company is also a PSI testing centre for FAA exams, and it hosts aviation events such as stops of the Air Race Classic, an all women air race.
Mankato is a growing regional centre, and the airport serves business aircraft visiting the city's companies and the university. North Star Aviation is mainly a flight school and FBO rather than a charter operator, so this profile is listed for reference.
