Fort Wayne, Indiana-based charter, flight training, aircraft rental and aircraft maintenance company Sweet Aviation has welcomed two new Cirrus G2+ Vision Jets to its growing fleet of aircraft. They are now officially onboarded and FAA-certified for charter services. These aircraft will offer Sweet Aviation more charter capacity and back-up options, resulting in a more convenient booking experience for clients.

“We see these planes as both valuable community assets and essential business tools,” says general manager Joel Pierce. “Our customers can expect increased aircraft availability and flexibility when scheduling their flights. We may be based in Fort Wayne, but our charter flight trips can start and end virtually anywhere. Charter flights allow customers to spend less time on the road and in busy airports, and more time getting things done. Whether they are travelling for business or pleasure, solo or with a group, we specialise in helping travellers reach their destination safely and on their schedule.”

Sweet Aviation already owns and operates a first-generation Cirrus Vision Jet that its pilots have safely flown with hundreds of passengers for thousands of miles across the country.

The G2+ takes everything customers love about the original single engine private jet and brings it to the next level. This latest model also includes additional features including inflight wi-fi and USB-C ports.

Sweet Aviation will still offer charter services on its Pilatus PC-12 and Cirrus SR22 GTS aircraft, and it maintains a partnership with Sweet Helicopters for charter flights across the Midwest.

Owner Chuck Surack says: “The G2+ Vision Jet is the perfect addition to Sweet Aviation’s diverse fleet. I’m proud of our team for securing not just one, but two new Cirrus Vision Jets. I would encourage anyone who is interested in flying charter to discover just how affordable and convenient Sweet Aviation’s charter service can be.”
