GrandView Aviation will open a new base at Chicago Executive Airport (PWK) early next year, the Maryland-based air charter operator announced this week. The new base, its third, will be served by a 2017 Embraer Phenom 300 light twinjet.
“We’ve had many clients inquire about expanding our service to the Chicagoland and Midwest region,” GrandView chief operating officer Jessica Naor said. “With our bases in Maryland, Texas, and now Illinois, we can serve clients from the East Coast to the Midwest, creating more options for private jet clients who demand newer, Wi-Fi-equipped aircraft.”
Operating a fleet of five Phenom 300s and a Sikorsky S-76D intermediate-class helicopter, GrandView is a Part 135 operator offering on-demand charters and transport to medical teams for organ transplant missions. It carries a Wyvern Wingman safety rating as well as IS-BAO and Argus Gold ratings.
Naor told AIN that GrandView will acquire its sixth Phenom 300 early next year.
