Jet Linx Aviation (JL, Omaha Eppley) has updated its Part 135-certified fleet, resuming operations with the Hawker 800XPi in October 2024 while simultaneously retiring its Learjet 60SE and Falcon 900EX, according to ch-aviation research.
The reintroduced Hawker 800XPi, N486VC (msn 258653), completed its inaugural flight under Jet Linx Aviation's code 'JTL' on November 3, between Nashville International and West Palm Beach International. Previously, the company operated five units of the Hawker 800XPi between 2015 and March 2024, and after an eight-month break the model returns to its fleet. The 20.4-year-old aircraft has been consistently registered in the United States and was previously certified under Executive Aviation Services (Springdale), which continues to operate another unit of this type.
However, Jet Linx has removed the last Falcon 900EX from its fleet. N999FG (msn 46) conducted its final flight under the 'JTL' code on September 16, travelling from Chattanooga Lovell to Miami Opa-Locka, with a subsequent flight to Boise. The 25.7-year-old jet is now parked and no longer listed for charter operations in the US. This aircraft, the last of three Falcon 900EX jets operated by the firm since 2020, had an extensive history, including operations in Mexico and Canada, before joining Jet Linx in late 2022.
Additionally, Jet Linx Aviation retired its last Learjet 60SE, N61WF (msn 60-313). This aircraft made its last flight under the 'JTL' code on September 14, from Orlando Sanford to Boca Raton, and is no longer listed with any Part 135 operator. The 17.7-year-old jet joined Jet Linx in March 2022 and was the second of its type operated by the company following an earlier unit active between 2018 and 2019. Its service history includes time in the UK and the Isle of Man before returning to the US in 2014.
With a fleet of 102 aircraft under its Part 135 certificate, Jet Linx operates a broad selection of models across various categories. In addition to the newly reintroduced Hawker 800XPi, the Hawker Beechcraft lineup includes two Beechjet 400As, two Beechjet 400XTs, four Hawker 400XPs, one Hawker 400XT, one Hawker 800XP, one Hawker 850XP, and three Hawker 900XPs. From Dassault Aviation, the fleet now comprises one Falcon 2000(LX), one Falcon 2000EX EASy, two Falcon 7X, and one Falcon 900(LX). The Learjet series consists of one Learjet 45, one Learjet 45(XR), three Learjet 45XRs, one Learjet 60XR, and one Learjet 75. Jet Linx’s extensive charter fleet is further complemented by aircraft from Bombardier Business Aircraft, Embraer Executive Jets, Gulfstream Aerospace, and Textron Aviation.
