Jet Linx Aviation (JL, Omaha Eppley) adjusted its Part 135-certified fleet in November 2024, resuming operations with the Falcon 900EX and G450 types while retiring the last Citation Jet 2 aircraft and the sole Hawker 400XT, ch-aviation research has revealed.
After a two-year-and-a-half hiatus, the company has reintroduced the G450 type to its Part 135 fleet. N555TF (msn 4080), a 17.4-year-old aircraft, was previously operated privately in the United States. It was first active under Jet Linx's 'JTL' code on November 25, completing a round-trip between Scottsdale and Tucson International. Jet Linx Aviation operated three G450s between 2019 and 2022.
Meanwhile, the aircraft charter and aircraft management specialist also reintroduced the Falcon 900EX type, following its retirement in October. N420PD (msn 84), a 24-year-old aircraft, was previously operated under the certificate of SC Aviation, where it was the sole unit of the type, flying for the last time under the 'COL' code on November 10 between Waukesha and Kenosha. On November 28, it became active under the 'JTL' code, flying to Lafayette Purdue University. SC Aviation continues to operate other Dassault-manufactured types, including a Falcon 7X and two Falcon 2000s.
Meanwhile, Jet Linx Aviation retired the final Citation Jet 2 from its Part 135 fleet. N420EH (msn 525A-0027), a 23.5-year-old aircraft, was last active under the 'JTL' code on October 21, operating between Minneapolis Flying Cloud and Denver Rocky Mountain. The aircraft is not currently Part 135-certified and has since transitioned to private operations. Jet Linx Aviation had operated three Citation Jet 2 units since 2017.
In addition, the company retired its sole Hawker 400XT. N12XP (msn RK-458), a 19.4-year-old aircraft, last flew under the 'JTL' code on August 11 from Detroit Willow Run to Charlotte International. The jet is not currently part of the charter fleet of any operator.
Jet Linx Aviation now operates 100 aircraft under its Part 135 certificate, offering a broad range of models across various categories manufactured by Bombardier Business Aircraft, Dassault Aviation, Embraer Executive Jets, Gulfstream Aerospace, and Textron Aviation.
