  • 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 Pavco Flight Center

Pavco Flight Center is a family owned flight centre at Tacoma Narrows Airport in Gig Harbor, Washington, across the Narrows Bridge from Tacoma. It began as a one airplane, one instructor operation and has grown into a full service business with 12 aircraft and 18 employees. It says it has trained pilots for more than 30 years, has flown more than 150,000 flight operations and has a no injury safety record.

For passengers, the company offers charter flights and scenic flights. Flights from Tacoma Narrows can take in Puget Sound, the Olympic Mountains, Mount Rainier, the San Juan Islands and the Seattle skyline, and charters can reach the islands and regional airports around the Pacific Northwest.

Flight training is the heart of the business. It is a certified Cessna Pilot Center and trains pilots for private, instrument, commercial, airline transport, flight instructor and multi engine ratings, using a Cessna fleet, a Piper Aztec twin and an FAA qualified flight simulator.

The company also runs an FAA repair station that services Cessna, Beechcraft, Piper and other piston aircraft, sells and rents aircraft, offers ramp services for visiting aircraft and has hangar space for small and medium jets.
