Westair Charter, a division of Boise, Idaho-based MRO, sales and FBO service provider Western Aircraft, has celebrated its 20th year of charter service.

Vice president for aircraft sales and charter management Phil Winters has been with the company since 1997, overseeing the growth of Western’s charter business while also watching the growth of the industry.

“We are proud to be celebrating this milestone and be a longstanding partner to the business aviation community,” he says. “At the same time, I am excited about the future as I observe the charter industry’s steady growth due to increasing productive business and family flight schedule options.”

Westair Charter has equally been seeing an upswing in its aircraft management services. It recently added its 16th aircraft, a Pilatus PC-24, to its management and Part 135 certificate. Westair Charter and Aircraft Management operates a variety of aircraft from various locations throughout the lower 48 US and Hawaii.
