Los Angeles To Aspen


Who's "operating"/flying their aircraft?

USAC. It is right on the website.

I could have elaborated>

Who is "USAC Airways". And what else do they employ and operate.
I find it humorous that a "scheduled" 135 operator can just waltz right into aspen. I wouldn't be surprised if they won't last a month.

Here you go.

Looks doomed to me but who knows.

22.01.2021 - 13:31 UTCUSAC Airways has added its first EMB-135LR ahead of the planned launch of scheduled charter operations on behalf of its parent, Aero (United States of America), ch-aviation research has revealed.

The 17.8-year-old Embraer regional jet was first seen in service on January 8, 2021, flying from Allentown to Washington, PA and return, AirNav RadarBox ADS-B data shows. The aircraft's last commercial operator was Lynx Táxi Aéreo (Rio de Janeiro Jacarepaguá), which retired it in 2015. From then on, the E135 was operated privately.

Aero said on its website that it would deploy the aircraft, configured for 16 passengers, on scheduled public charters sold on an individual basis. The virtual carrier plans to initially operate a single route, from Los Angeles Int'l to Aspen, plying it 5x weekly starting on February 4, 2021.

USAC Airways, a Part 135 carrier, has thus far operated a single Cessna (twin piston) C414A aircraft on charter flights.

That's......pretty concerning

Wanted to provide an update for anyone curious:

Still flying to Aspen, scheduled flights show ASE, APC, SUN, and JAC. Currently up to 3 aircraft, plan on hiring a few more pilots soon (currently 8 on property but only 4 are dedicated pilots, the others wear other hats)

The USAC airways thing is confusing but it’s just the name on the certificate
