Planet Nine Celebrates Second Anniversary
/Planet Nine Private Air (“Planet 9”), the Van Nuys, California (KVNY) based private charter operator and aircraft management company, marks its second anniversary. Celebrating ‘virtually’ with many of its 69-strong team working from home, Planet 9 is pleased to reflect on an extremely positive year, in which it significantly boosted its client base through an expanded portfolio of aircraft available for charter.
Over the past 12 months Planet 9 has added one Gulfstream G550 and two Gulfstream GVs to its managed fleet, the most recent GV coming on to its Part 135 operating license this April. The latest Gulfstream additions complement a Gulfstream G650 and Bombardier Global 5000, plus Planet 9’s own five Dassault Falcon 7Xs. All ten aircraft are available for charter.
Planet 9 holds ARGUS Platinum safety certification, closely followed by the endorsement of IS-BAO Stage 1 (International Standard for Business Aircraft Operations (IS-BAO). In 2019 it obtained Wyvern Wingman status, under its onsite flight leader program.
