Executive Aircraft Services

Executive Aircraft Services (EAS) is a business aviation company based at Scottsdale Municipal Airport (KSDL) in Scottsdale, Arizona. According to its website, it was founded in 1983 as a charter company and has held an FAA Part 135 charter certificate since then.

The company describes three lines of business: charter, aircraft sales and aircraft management. On the charter side it handles both short domestic trips and international itineraries, including trip logistics such as catering and ground transport. Its sales team handles single and multi-aircraft transactions; the company says it completed its first sale in 1988 and reports more than 600 transactions since.

EAS expanded into aircraft management within its first five years. It previously owned a Part 145 maintenance facility from 1993 until selling it in 2003. The website does not publish a current fleet list, so flyers should ask which aircraft are available on its certificate for a given trip.

No third-party safety audit ratings such as ARGUS or Wyvern are listed on its website. Flyers comparing options can ask the company for its current aircraft roster and audit status.
