Lider Aviation has added a G450, first inducted in 2024 and initially managed privately, to its charter-available fleet. The company has also announced the expansion and creation of new bases in the São Paulo metropolitan area.
PS-BDH (msn 4204), a 15.2-year-old Gulfstream Aerospace aircraft, was added to Líder Aviação's RBAC 135 Operations Specifications on February 11, 2025. The operator confirmed to ch-aviation that the long-range jet, configured to seat up to 16 passengers, will be based at São Roque Sao Paulo Catarina.
Currently, Líder Aviação's fleet comprises 14 fixed-wing aircraft, all available for charter, including the newly added G450, a Learjet 40XR, a Phenom 100, a Phenom 100EV, five Phenom 300s, a Hawker 850XP, a HondaJet (APMG), a HondaJet Elite, and two King Air C90s. The company also operates 41 helicopters, with one available for air taxi services and the remainder dedicated to onshore and offshore oil and gas activities in the country.
Líder Aviação has also announced the expansion and creation of new bases in São Paulo. This includes new operations at São Paulo Campo de Marte, the company's twenty-second base, with a hangar and services focused on rotary-wing aircraft, a new 4,000-square-metre hangar at Sorocaba, and the relocation of operations to a new office and hangar at São Paulo Congonhas.
Recently, the operator's fixed-base operation (FBO) at Rio de Janeiro International became the first in Brazil authorised to offer customs services by the federal revenue office (Receita Federal do Brasil - RFB).
