Helicopter charter, sales and maintenance from Shawnee Regional Airport, Oklahoma
Air Flite Inc is a family-owned aviation company based at the Shawnee airport in Oklahoma. Its website says Mark White founded it in 1981 and that it started out running the local FBO. The company now focuses on the sale, service and management of helicopters and airplanes.
For passengers, the website lists charter service with Bell 206B-III JetRanger and Bell 206L-III LongRanger helicopters. A recruitment posting describes Air Flite as an FAA Part 135 air carrier with charter operations covering helicopters and airplanes. Third-party registry sites show several Bell 206 helicopters registered to the company in Shawnee.
Besides charter, Air Flite sells helicopters and parts, offers helicopter leasing and manages aircraft. The same posting describes it as an FAA Part 145 repair station, a Bell Customer Service Center and a Schweizer Service Center. That makes it relevant to helicopter owners who need maintenance as well as to charter passengers.
The company is best suited to short regional helicopter trips in central Oklahoma and to buyers and owners of light Bell and Schweizer helicopters. Prospective charter customers should ask which aircraft are currently on the Part 135 certificate and what range each type can fly.
