Buyer’s guide · Fractional and shares
Fractional jet ownershipin Atlanta, compared.
Four ways to fly privately with some commitment, from none to a share of an airplane. We offer two of them and arrange the rest, so we have no reason to push you into the wrong one. The honest version follows.
The four options
From no commitment to a share of an airplane.
Hours, no airplane
Jet card
Block hours at a rate that does not move, booking priority, no asset on your balance sheet. Our Anchor Card: a founding class of 25 by referral, three places left, funds usable on any flight we arrange.
A share of a fleet
National fractional share
You buy a fraction of a specific type, pay a monthly management fee and an hourly rate, and fly any aircraft in that fleet with guaranteed availability on notice, subject to peak-day rules. Best for 50 to 400 hours a year spread across the country.
A share of one airplane
Locally based co-ownership
A one-sixth position in a single aircraft that lives at your airport, flown by crews who know you. Lower overhead than a national fleet, more say in how the airplane is run, and a real airplane you can walk out to. Our PDK-based Pilatus PC-24 program is forming now.
Before you sign anything
Five questions
that decide it.
The brochure answers none of these. The contract answers all of them.
01
Where does the airplane live?
A share in a national fleet means the airplane that shows up is whichever one is nearest, and positioning is priced in. A locally based share means it is at PDK, twelve minutes from Buckhead, and the crew is the same crew.
02
What do the hours really cost?
Add the acquisition cost, the monthly management fee, the hourly rate, fuel adjustments and the remarketing fee at the end of the term, then divide by the hours you will actually fly. Most people fly fewer than they forecast.
03
What are the peak-day rules?
Thanksgiving, Christmas week, spring break, the Masters. Every program has them; read how many days are restricted and what the notice is on those days.
04
How do I get out?
Term length, the remarketing fee, and whether the operator buys the share back at an appraised value. The exit decides what the share was worth.
05
Who holds operational control?
On a charter flight, the Part 135 certificate holder. On your own Part 91 flights, the owners. Ask who the certificate holder is and whether they fly their own airplane under the same rules.
Questions people ask
Straight answers.
PARK AIR flies its own airplane under its own certificate and arranges everything else. Ask us anything; a person picks up.
Who is the best fractional jet operator in Atlanta?
It depends on how you fly. For 200-plus hours a year across the country, a national fleet program fits. For an Atlanta owner flying 50 to 100 hours a year who wants one real airplane at PDK, a crew who knows them and a say in how it is run, Park Air's PC-24 co-ownership is built for exactly that, and it is the only program of its kind run by a Part 135 operator based at DeKalb-Peachtree.
Is fractional ownership worth it from Atlanta?
Above about 50 hours a year with a predictable mission it can be, especially if you value a guaranteed airplane over the flexibility of charter. Below that, a jet card or on-demand charter usually costs less all in and ties up no capital.
What is the difference between a jet card and a fractional share?
A card is prepaid hours with no ownership: no capital, no monthly fee, no exit. A share is partial ownership of an aircraft: capital in, a monthly fee, an hourly rate, and a resale at the end. Cards suit 25 to 50 hours a year; shares start to make sense above that.
What is a locally based co-ownership?
A small group of owners sharing one specific airplane that lives at their home airport, managed by an operator. Compared with a national program: lower management overhead, one airplane and one crew, more influence over how it is run, and the airplane is where you are. Park Air runs one on a Pilatus PC-24 at PDK: six one-sixth positions, forming as of October 2026.
Can a share be chartered when I am not using it?
If the aircraft is placed on a Part 135 certificate and conforms to it, yes, and the revenue offsets cost. Charter days are scheduled around the owners. The PC-24 program is set up this way through Park Air's certificate, subject to conformity.
Why a PC-24 for the share?
About 440 knots, flight level 450, about 2,000 nautical miles, up to eight in an executive cabin with a lavatory, a large cargo door, and approval for unpaved strips, so it lands where turboprops land. Details and the owner-hours math are on the fractional page.
Is this an investment?
No. It is a way to fly. The program is a co-ownership managed by ParkAir, LLC, not an offer to sell securities; the share price, pro forma and tax treatment are in the one-pager and should be reviewed with your CPA and counsel.
The PC-24 program is a co-ownership managed by ParkAir, LLC. Nothing on this page is an offer to sell securities or investment advice. Charter use is subject to Part 135 conformity. Confirm tax treatment with your CPA.
