Small operators

Hi

Can anyone point me in the direction of small charter/executive jet operators?
Specifically, I am looking for sub 15-pax aircraft.

Thanks in advance

I am looking for UK based operators whom offer chartering for between 4 - 15 pax.
Location is not important but I would prefer operators based around the MAN, BHX and LGW area.

Cheers

Oh, I forgot about them, I hear they are getting:

Cessna 340's
Citation x 2
No doubt the Global's and Falcon's will be on there way.

Uniqueair are actually Swansea based. (And still have no AOC or Aircraft!)

If you want a Cardiff based operator try DragonFly.
They have 2 King Air 200's, one 8 seat and one 7 seat.

FYI

Centreline do not have anything in Manch. Kingairs in SEN and BRS, CJ in BRS (about 3 weeks away) and Senecas in BFS, CVT and BRS.

Pistons

Who wants pistons, so yesterday, even the King Air work will die away and soon enough the VLJ's will take over, thats when the really small operators will finish for not moving with the times!

You heard it here first!

Skytrak-I have to disagree, there will always be a requirement for Kingairs, what VLJ can carry 6-8 passengers with a fairly good range?
Also the VLJ's are quite limited with baggage etc.
