Part 135 operator Modesto Jet Center, which runs the sole FBO at Modesto City-County airport-Harry Sham Field in Modesto, California, has added a super midsize Citation X jet to its aircraft management and charter fleet.

Located in the heart of California’s Central Valley, Modesto Jet is flight minutes away from the Bay Area, making it an ideal option for Bay Area private charter travellers. The company’s growing charter fleet now includes a Citation X, two PC-24 light business jets, two Nextant 400 light jets, King Airs and PC-12s.

The Citation X features an extensive range that is ideal for trips from San Francisco to New York, Miami or beyond.
