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 Silverhawk Aviation Academy
Silverhawk Aviation Academy is a flight school in Caldwell, Idaho, in the Treasure Valley west of Boise. It was founded in 1998 and describes itself as Idaho's only Part 141 school for both airplane and helicopter training. It flies a fleet of Robinson helicopters, maintained by its own on site mechanics, and uses a Robinson R66 on helicopter tours.
Its helicopter programmes cover private and commercial pilot certificates, flight instructor and instrument instructor certificates, instrument ratings and other specialised training. It says it builds individual programmes with one to one instruction, so students progress at their own pace.
The school highlights the variety of southern Idaho's terrain for training, from mountains, mesas and high desert to lakes, rivers and canyons. The same scenery makes for striking tour flights over the Boise River, the Snake River canyon, the vineyards of the Sunnyslope wine trail and the foothills above Boise.
Prospective students can visit to meet instructors and talk with current students or graduates. Silverhawk Aviation Academy is mainly a flight school rather than a charter operator, so this profile is listed for reference.
