LEADERSHIP
The people responsible for setting and enforcing the standard.
JOHN LEARY
FlyJPL VP of Aviation
Airline Transport Pilot with more than 12,000 flight hours across Part 91, Part 135, and Part 121 operations.
Former Chief Pilot, Director of Aviation, and Standards Captain.
Type-rated across multiple Gulfstream and Citation aircraft platforms.
At FlyJBL, John establishes and enforces the operational, safety, and qualification standards every operator, aircraft, and crew member must satisfy before client travel is approved.
"I've spent my career in cockpits where the standard was non-negotiable. I didn't lower it when I left the flight deck. I brought it here."
OPERATIONAL STANDARDS
Four requirements. Every booking.
No exceptions.
THIRD-PARTY SAFETY AUDITS
Every operator we work with has successfully completed an independent third-party safety audit.
Think of it as the aviation industry's equivalent of a financial compliance review.
If an operator has not met the required audit threshold, they do not fly for our clients.
FAA PART 135 CERTIFICATION
Every aircraft we book operates under an FAA-issued Part 135 Air Carrier Certificate.
This is the regulatory framework governing commercial charter operations in the United States.
Operators without current Part 135 certification do not make our approved network
INSURANCE VERIFICATION
Insurance is verified on every booking.
Not once during onboarding.
Not once per year.
Every flight.
Coverage limits, policy status, and operator compliance are reviewed prior to client travel.
Coverage gaps are an immediate disqualifier.
PILOT & CREW STANDARDS
Flight-hour experience.
Aircraft type ratings.
Recurrent training records.
Operational history.
Crew qualifications are reviewed against our internal standards before a flight is approved.
Crews that fail to meet those standards do not fly for our clients.
