US private aviation company FlyHouse has entered into a definitive agreement to acquire Sun Air Jets, a Southern California-based aircraft management and charter operator. The transaction represents a strategic expansion of FlyHouse’s maintenance, management and operational capabilities. Sun Air Jets’ operations and more than 100 personnel will be integrated into the FlyHouse network, extending the company’s presence in key US markets.

The addition of multiple super-mid and large-cabin aircraft will expand FlyHouse’s owned and managed fleet, supplementing more than 2,000 aircraft currently accessible through its global charter network. The diversified fleet enhances FlyHouse’s flexibility to meet mission needs across distance, passenger count and performance requirements.

FlyHouse will assume hangar, ramp and support facilities at Van Nuys and Camarillo airports, including an FBO at Camarillo. The expanded footprint enables more efficient aircraft servicing, crew operations and client support across key West Coast locations.

The addition of Sun Air Jets’ certified maintenance and repair station provides FlyHouse with in-house MRO capabilities, enabling direct oversight of inspection, maintenance and component work. The certification also opens a new business line for third-party maintenance services.

FlyHouse will also integrate Sun Air Jets’ ARGUS Platinum, IS-BAO and Wyvern Wingman certifications.

“Our agreement to acquire Sun Air Jets represents a defining move in FlyHouse’s growth,” says CEO Jack Lambert Jr. “Owning a 145 repair station, an expanded fleet and premier facilities at Van Nuys and Camarillo fundamentally changes our capabilities. We’ve built FlyHouse to be the first ecosystem brand in private aviation, one that owns its infrastructure, integrates technology at every level and delivers a service experience that’s seamless end-to-end.”

The transaction also positions FlyHouse for international expansion by standardising maintenance, safety and operational procedures to meet European certification requirements and cross-border regulatory compliance.
