Aircraft Services

Virtual Flight Ops

Performance Flight’s Virtual Flight Operations provides you or your company an alternative to a traditional corporate flight department. Our services are more cost effective and comprehensive than an in-house flight department. Our Aircraft Management, Executive Pilot, Aircraft Detailing, and Charter Brokering provide you an all-inclusive aviation experience that cannot be matched by any one department. Whether you’re in your own aircraft or on a charter flight, our team will manage the logistics of your trip from start to finish.

The initial step in joining our Virtual Flight Operations is either working with Performance Flight to find you the perfect aircraft for purchase or adding your already-owned aircraft to our Management Program. Once your aircraft is a part of our fleet, we will assign Executive Pilots to the aircraft, set up maintenance tracking, and commence the maintenance of your aircraft. From Cirrus SR-22’s to the TBM-940 to Citations and Gulfstreams, we can provide the highest level of Aircraft Management Services.

In the unlikely event your aircraft cannot be used for a flight, we have the ability to quickly broker a charter flight for your trip. We maintain an excellent relationship with charter operators nationwide. With our experience and connections, we’ll find the best aircraft at the best possible price for your chartered trip. We’ll also ensure the aircraft is stocked as requested and take care of any further catering needs.

Maintenance Tracking

At Performance Flight, we realize aircraft are advanced pieces of machinery that require meticulous maintenance to keep them running at optimum levels. With our extensive experience in aircraft management and maintenance, we have the capability to foresee most maintenance issues and act to correct them with speed and efficiency. This greatly increases the dispatch reliability of your aircraft, decreases overall maintenance costs, and makes it easy for you to utilize your aircraft with confidence.

A major component of our aircraft management program is our maintenance tracking capability. If you’re purchasing an aircraft, maintenance tracking begins before the purchase is finalized. Our aircraft management team will research your potential aircraft’s maintenance logbooks to verify airworthiness. It’s important to confirm the aircraft has been maintained to a high standard. Once our research is complete, we’ll recommend maintenance actions to bring the aircraft to a maintenance standard that will provide excellent dispatch reliability.

If you already own your aircraft and choose Performance Flight as your management company, we’ll study your maintenance logbooks to confirm airworthiness and maintenance history. We can then make recommendations for future maintenance based on our findings.

Through our electronic maintenance monitoring, we have the ability to anticipate inspections before they become disruptive to your aircraft use. This includes but is not limited to scheduling annual inspections, 100-hour inspections, oil changes, service bulletin compliance, and airworthiness directive compliance.
