God's River Airport

There is an overwhelming number of private aircraft on the market today. Most people who fly private jets do not own their jet, but charter their ride. However, before looking into chartering a ride, a person needs to know what their options are. There are four main styles: executive piston and turboprop, light executive jets, midsized executive jets, and heavy jets.

Piston and turboprop jets are optimal for small groups traveling on business. They are not recommended for people traveling farther distances and are some of smaller jets on the market. Light executive jets offer privacy and are a step up from the piston and turboprop. The interiors are still nice but they are not going to be the highest overall quality. When traveling in large groups you are going to need the midsized executive jet or the larger heavy jets. Both of these are very luxurious and have the space for large parties. These jets will allow for longer traveling distances to your destination country compared to the smaller versions.

For many large businesses with continent hopping executives, traveling by private aircraft can be a cost effective business tool. Charter aircraft companies are located all over the globe in the major citites and chartering a private jet comes with endless options for scheduling and offers passengers luxury, convenience and impeccable service.

Private jets for charter come in a number of shapes, sizes, configurations and with different speeds and range. There are six categories from very light to super heavy jets. Very light jets like the Cessna Citation carry 2 to 4 passengers, have a cruise speed of nearly 400 mph and a range of 1300 miles. The Learjet 55, a midsize jet, carries 7 passengers, has a speed of 450 mph and a range of 2500 miles. On the far end, the Boeing business jet has room for 50, a speed of 470 mph and a range of 7000 miles.

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), sets the standards for flight rules in the US. Both sorts of air flight systems, private and public, must go by the direction of the FAA. The FAA regulations have been and are currently in place to keep the jets, the pilots and the public, secure in the clouds. The Federal Aviation Administration is under the guidance of the United States Department of Transportation (DOT). The FAA and the DOT, both monitor closely all flight problems and movements for the safety travel of all people on U.S. airlines.

Pilots can make extremely good money as a private jet pilot. A private jet pilot is a pilot who charters famous people or really wealthy people. A pilot who charters a private jet can make well over one hundred thousand dollars a year. There are pilots who work strictly for one company. A pilot’s job is to charter the corporate workers to meetings that are in other cities. A company will pay a pilot by salary. There are companies that will pay a pilot a high hourly wage to fly the private jet. The corporations will even pay for the pilot’s hotel room and food and spending money when they travel. Each company that hires a private jet pilot will have different requirements that the pilot must meet in order to get hired. Some companies want the pilot to have a certain amount of hours in the air before they hire them.
