Founded in Alice Springs in 1974, Chartair is one of the biggest General Aviation companies in the country with a fleet of 40 aircraft, employing 80 full-time staff across three bases in the Northern Territory (Darwin, Alice Springs and Katherine). Chartair is a Scheduled Transport Operator under part 135, which requires our maintenance and flight operation activities to perform at a significantly

higher standard of regulatory approval than a regular charter operator. We are now also BARS Registered and the only fixed-wing General Aviation carrier in the Northern Territory to have this registration.

📣 Chartair has achieved Gold BARS registration.

Chartair has been BARS registered since early 2022, and we are proud to announce the successful completion of another comprehensive BARS program audit. We now hold Gold BARS registration status.

The Flight Safety Foundation Basic Aviation Risk Standard (BARS) program is designed to provide organisations that engage contracted aircraft operators with a standard to assist in the risk-based management of aviation activities. The Standard is suited to any organisation that uses aircraft operators to provide contracted aviation support for their operations in many different industries, in particular within the mining & resources sectors, and particularly within remote and challenging environments.

What a beauty - VH-NMQ one of our twin engine C402 aircraft looking great at Finke (Aputula). Finke is a remote Indigenous community in the NT, approx. 320 km south of Alice Springs, and was originally established as a railway siding on the original Ghan railway line until 1981 when the railway was relocated 150km to the west.

Finke is also well known as the midway point for the annual Finke Desert Race.

Our passenger lounge in Alice Springs is conveniently located less than a 5 minute walk from the main terminal.

Last week, we were able to shorten the 5 minute walk to a hop, skip and a jump across the apron, when passengers transferred from a commercial flight straight on to Chartair's VH-LAE (C402) at Alice Springs airport.

Where do you need to get to? Contact us and we'll help you get there🛫
