Aircraft management and charter firm Silver Air has a new plane in its stable: a Boeing Business Jet based on the 737-700 airliner.
The largest jet in its 25-aircraft fleet, Silver Air acquired this Boeing Business Jet in late March with plans to begin charter operations in later in the spring. The Los Angeles-based operator is one of the few private 737 operators in the US and even fewer BBJ charter operators.
The 18-seat aircraft is designed for a small subset of the traveling population that's focused on convenience without compromising luxury.
"The BBJ is the ultimate private jet experience," Chuck Stumpf, Silver Air's president of business development in a quote on the jet's dedicated website, said. "It's the highest level of service, the pinnacle of luxury, the peak of private aviation."
The airliner turned private jet joins Silver Air's existing fleet of private jets, ranging from small light jets to wide-cabin heavy jets with brands such as Gulfstream, Bombardier, Dassault, and Cessna represented in the 25-aircraft line-up.
Step inside this ultra-luxurious business jet, you just may recognize the owner.
