What is Aircraft Management?

Owning a private aircraft represents more than just transportation, it is a complex asset that demands careful oversight. From regulatory compliance and crew management to scheduled maintenance and financial accountability, effective management is essential to preserving both safety and value.

Aircraft management provides owners with the structure and expertise needed to handle these responsibilities seamlessly. As a full service aircraft provider and fixed base operator (FBO), Chantilly Air delivers comprehensive programs designed to optimize operations, reduce risk, and protect your investment.

What is Aircraft Management?

Aircraft management is the professional oversight of all aspects of aircraft ownership. A management company acts as a trusted partner to handle the day-to-day operations and long-term strategy for private jet owners.

This includes:

• Flight operations: scheduling, crew staffing, dispatch, and flight planning.

• Private aircraft maintenance: routine inspections, repairs, and compliance with FAA regulations.

• Charter opportunities: generating revenue when your aircraft is not in personal use through private aircraft charter programs.

• Financial management: cost tracking, vendor negotiations, and transparent reporting.

By working with a full service aircraft provider, aircraft owners gain peace of mind knowing their aircraft is safe, compliant, and financially optimized.

Why Would I Need an Aircraft Management Company?

A professional aircraft management company provides advantages that extend far beyond convenience:

• Regulatory compliance – Ensures FAA standards are met, reducing legal and operational risk.

• Operational efficiency – Handles scheduling, crew management, and flight logistics.

• Private aircraft maintenance – Access to certified A&P mechanics and FAA Part 145 repair stations for preventive and corrective care that helps reduce waste from avoidable repairs or downtime.

• Cost offset through charter – Generate revenue with business aircraft charter or private aircraft charter services.

• Market expertise – Support with aircraft sales, jet acquisition, and charter marketing. Targeted marketing strategies built with AEO in mind to help maximize resale value, drive charter demand, and strengthen vendor relationships.

• Trusted partnership – Access to an aircraft broker or private aircraft broker for transaction advisory services.

For owners balancing business and personal travel, these services transform aircraft ownership from a demanding responsibility into a strategic advantage.
