Cirrus Aviation Services Van Nuys
Cirrus Aviation Services is among the largest private aviation management and charter companies in the U.S., and our Van Nuys location extends that reach across the Los Angeles area. For over 16 years, our team has managed and operated aircraft privately and commercially for a growing group of owners.
Owning a private jet is rewarding but demanding, and the right management company protects your investment while streamlining every part of ownership to be more convenient, dependable, and efficient. Our turnkey Los Angeles aircraft management program is led by an experienced, trusted team that treats your aircraft with the same care they’d give their own.
Cirrus Aviation serves as your partner and advocate throughout the private jet experience. We handle the operational and technical details so you’re free to focus on your family, your work, and your life.
Our purpose isn’t to profit from every line of aircraft operations. It’s to provide Van Nuys owners the strengths of a large, professional flight department at a lower cost — a relationship where you’re a valued partner, not just a client.

Just make one call and let your Flight Coordinator manage the rest — scheduling, permits, catering, hotels, and transportation throughout Los Angeles and beyond. Your crew and aircraft will be ready and waiting, so you can simply step aboard and fly.
We hire and assign pilots to your primary aircraft, which means you’ll consistently see familiar crew who understand your preferences and know your jet better than any other in the fleet. Our large professional staff and extended pilot pool ensure your key trips are never sidelined by vacations, illness, or training schedules.
Our experienced maintenance professionals look after every detail of your aircraft’s care, balancing everyday technical support with long-term planning. Backed by broad expertise on Gulfstream, Bombardier, and Textron products, we drive dispatch reliability up and push costs and downtime down.
Day-to-day maintenance, inspections, and compliance tracking stay with our in-house team, ensuring dependable quality control and uncompromising safety standards. For heavy checks, major inspections, or interior and exterior refurbishments, we rely on a trusted circle of select MRO partners to complete every significant event smoothly.
At Cirrus Aviation, safety and ethics aren’t afterthoughts — they’re the cornerstones of our business and the key to our success. Our Platinum Elite Safety rating from ARGUS International reflects in-depth third-party audits and inspections. We champion these standards across our organization and pledge, as your partner, to always act safely and in your long-term interest.
Each year our Safety Management System (SMS) is reviewed by fully accredited certification agencies such as ARGUS and IS-BAO, plus a range of industry partners. Cirrus Aviation also participates in the FAA’s voluntary SMS and ASAP safety and reporting initiatives.
Our Part 135 Air-Carrier Certificate gives you the option to put your aircraft to work, producing monthly charter income that helps cover the costs of ownership. Depending on your flying habits and maintenance needs, many aircraft in our fleet run cash-flow positive over a typical year. Whether you want high charter earnings or low usage, we’ll work toward your personal targets while preserving your asset’s value.
From daily servicing to compliance tracking, our in-house team keeps your aircraft mission-ready, drawing on deep Gulfstream, Bombardier, and Textron experience. Heavy checks, major inspections, and refurbishments are coordinated with trusted MRO partners so reliability stays high and downtime stays low.
Every month, our Finance team supplies detailed accounting and straightforward financial reporting, giving you complete visibility into your aircraft’s ongoing operation.
Our knowledgeable air-carrier team maintains up-to-date aircraft, maintenance, and flight-crew records in full compliance with FAA and international rules. Beyond that, we assist in structuring your ownership, taxes, and billing properly to help you avoid legal or tax problems with the FAA and IRS.
Because of our fleet’s scale and lasting safety record, owners benefit from substantial insurance cost savings while keeping coverage well above the industry standard.
We hold exclusive agreements with top fuel vendors and FBOs, including the largest providers — Signature Flight Support and Atlantic Aviation, with strong coverage at Van Nuys Airport. Our Flight Coordinators review every FBO’s facility fees and tap multiple fuel contracts to guarantee the lowest fuel prices and greatest efficiency.
Because more than 100 of our pilots train each year, fleet owners benefit from substantial discounts at internationally respected simulator providers FlightSafety and CAE. Following their training, crews also receive comprehensive in-house service and operations education.
Crew members employed through Cirrus Aviation enjoy access to our comprehensive medical benefits and 401(k) program.
Our seasoned hiring team evaluates dozens of candidates monthly, making certain the strongest pilots land at Cirrus Aviation.
Fleet aircraft enjoy discounted pricing on important subscriptions like in-flight Wi-Fi, OEM manual sets, and navigational chart subscriptions.
Owners set their own revenue and hourly targets — usually somewhere between 200 and 600 hours per year — and can revise them whenever they like. Trip restrictions, including passenger count, pet carriage, and trip duration, are determined by the owner. Every heavy-aircraft charter flight includes an assigned Cabin Host to care for guests aboard the managed aircraft.
Owners earn 90% of generated flight fees along with 80% of sold empty legs in supplementary income.
Fees are billed at actual cost, and your own trips always come before charter flights. When a replacement aircraft is needed, additional fleet aircraft are available at a reduced rate, and supplementary fleet pilots can be assigned whenever necessary.

Safety is where everything begins. We study and use the latest strategies, technologies, and resources so that each flight is as safe and secure as possible. Our efforts have been independently audited to the strictest standards and recognized with a Platinum Elite rating by ARGUS International, a rigorous third-party safety regulator whose rating fewer than 6% of U.S. private jet services achieve.
The scale of our operation calls for close FAA oversight and auditing, and we’re proud to go beyond every requirement with a seasoned team of pilots, mechanics, and travel specialists.
Private aircraft operation is our specialty. Count on our team for fast, error-free travel information and for making private jet travel simple, convenient, and stress-free. Our sales and operations professionals are trained in charter sales and in aircraft dispatch alike.
That means that beyond pricing, size, and premium experiences, we also monitor the details that often go unnoticed — aircraft performance, loading, baggage, and airport restrictions. Whether you step aboard a jet from our fleet or one from a carefully vetted air carrier partner, you can trust that we’ve accounted for everything. Enjoy your destination.
