Priester Aviation, Talon Air Offering New BizJets For Hire
Two private jet charter companies have added new airplanes to their operations. Priester Aviation has acquired a Hawker 800XP and a Challenger 300, while Talon air has made a deal for a Gulfstream V.
Priester's additions include a Chicago-based Hawker 800XP and a brand new St. Louis-based Challenger 300. The mid-cabin Hawker 800XP, located at Priester Aviation’s headquarters (PWK), seats eight passengers, is equipped with a private lavatory and is ideal for travel throughout the U.S., Mexico, Canada and the Caribbean. The Challenger 300, located at Lambert - St. Louis International Airport (STL), is a super-midsize jet configured with a double-club seating arrangement allowing maximum comfort for eight passengers. Bombardier’s Challenger 300 is renowned for its sophistication and versatility making it one of the most popular aircraft in business aviation.
Both aircraft are available for immediate global charter.
Talon Air's new acquisition is a 14 passenger Gulfstream V ultra-long range aircraft. The airplane is based in Teterboro, NJ (TEB) and available for immediate charter. The aircraft is equipped with High Speed Internet/Wi-Fi, 2 oversized cabin monitors, Airshow, Satellite Phone and Fax, Voice over IP (VoIP), an iPod connection and a CD/DVD system. The on-board amenities make it an ideal choice for both international and domestic travel.
“This luxurious ultra-long range aircraft allows Talon to continue to offer our clients an unparalleled service by accommodating their international non-stop flight itineraries,” says Adam Katz, CEO of Talon Air. With its ultra long range capability and short range efficiency, the Gulfstream V proves its time-saving abilities with ease. The world’s most remote destinations become easily accessible with Talon Air’s Gulfstream V.
The aircraft has the ability to fly non-stop between citing pairings such as New York to Moscow, Chicago to Tel Aviv or Boston to Rio de Janeiro.
