North American Jet Intro's EA500 Charter In South Florida

Chicago-Based Operator Now Offering VLJ Flights From BCT

North American Jet Charter Group, LLC announced late last week the delivery of its first Florida-based Eclipse 500 very light jet available for on-demand air-taxi and charter. Based at Boca Aviation at Boca Raton Airport (BCT), the two pilot / four passenger VLJ offers service to the Bahamas and other regional destinations.

"We are very pleased to offer the South Florida market the first whole-plane VLJ air taxi service, "said Ken Ross, the company’s CEO and President. "The Eclipse is the ideal aircraft for people who want to travel to the islands or to destinations within 500 miles."

Phil Mathews, President of Air Partner, an air charter provider with US headquarters in Fort Lauderdale, believes the new VLJ will greatly enhance the charter market in South Florida. "The Eclipse will undoubtedly bring the significant benefits of private charter to a new segment of travelers, while offering a very cost-efficient alternative for shorter trips to our existing customers."

North American Jet Charter Group plans to expand its VLJ fleet to accommodate the increasing number of Eclipses being delivered throughout the United States. "Our expertise in managing and operating the Eclipse enables us to put aircraft on our Part 135 certificate in less than a week. We’re actively seeking additional aircraft to base in Florida and other parts of the country," said Ross.

Based in Wheeling, IL at Chicago Executive Airport, North American Jet is an ARG/US Platinum rated FAA-Part 135 charter operator and aircraft management company. NAJCG manages Eclipse 500s, Lear 35s and Cessna Sovereigns.

In June 2007, the company operated the world’s first passenger revenue flight on a VLJ. Since then, North American Jet has expanded its VLJ fleet to six, with five Eclipses based at Chicago Executive Airport.
