Reach New Heights

Our mission is focused on empowered ownership.

We pride ourselves on delivering a premium concierge service while offering the most competitive private flying in the region. When purchasing an aircraft share, our members become an integral part of the success of our enterprise and reap the benefits that their assets generate.

Why Fractional Ownership

Owners enjoy the luxury of flying private, safely, and efficiently, along with associated tax benefits and reduced costs. The cost of ownership is offset by leasing out the aircraft to third parties whenever it is not used by its owners. The lease revenue greatly reduces the total cost of ownership and operation.

Fractional Price, Full Benefits

A stylish and convenient aircraft at your disposal, for a fraction of the price.

No Repositioning Fees

Tally based on occupied hours in the aircraft, with no repositioning fees within a 400 mile range.

Flexible Availability

When your own aircraft is down for maintenance or otherwise already occupied, we'll match you with another aircraft so you can make your trip.

Jet Options

If you're thinking of going a little further, you might need a jet. We have multiple jets in our network which you have access to as a Stratus 9 member.

Tailored to You

Adapt your ownership conditions and revenue plan to the amount of hours which suit your needs.

Tax Benefits

As an airplane owner, you benefit from depreciation deductions and exemption from Federal Excise Tax. Talk to your accountant or get in touch to hear how you can best benefit from a favorable tax regime.

Why Turboprops & Light Jets?

While the market for larger jets like the Gulfstreams, G5s, and Globals is well-catered to, turboprops and light jets often lack the same level of professional management and expertise. We choose our aircraft with immense thought, thorough detail, and countless hours of experience.

Take, for instance, the Pilatus PC-12, a marvel of Swiss engineering. With its luxurious cabin and exceptional safety rating, the PC-12 epitomizes the high standards of private aviation. It boasts perfect craftsmanship, advanced avionics, and an interior designed for ultimate comfort. The PC-12 seamlessly blends reliability and operational flexibility, making it a favorite for those who appreciate both efficiency and luxury.

The potential of light jets and turboprops is immense, and they deserve the same dedication and expertise afforded to their larger counterparts. Stratus 9 starts at the core of your private aviation journey, catering to CEOs, small business owners, executives, and family offices.

Operating Cost

Intelligent systems provides greater fuel efficiency, longer turbine life-cycle and less maintenance operations.

Spotless Safety Record

The P&W PT6 gas turbine is well known for being one of the safest engines ever built. In over 7 million flight hour, the PC-12 has never had a fatality due to engine failure.

Extreme Versatility

Short Landing performance and rough field capabilities, wide cargo door and a high payload capacity ensures a wide range of mission profiles without the typical constraints of jet aircraft.

Large Cabin

With 330 cubic feet of pressurized cabin space, you benefit from one of the most spacious cabins in its category and will arrive at your destination more relaxed and rested.

Resell Value

PC-12 owners enjoy the highest value retention rates in all of business aviation, essentially canceling-out the main cost of operating a top-tier aircraft.

Large Demand

Selling dry lease time is essential to offset costs. The unwavering demand for PC-12 in Southern California guarantees usage for your aircraft and lower operational costs for you.
