Bode Aviation Adds Citation Bravo to Fleet
Bode Aviation, a recognized player in the aviation services industry, has recently expanded its fleet by acquiring a Citation Bravo, marking a significant addition to its Part 135-certified aircraft. This move, reported in November 2024, enhances the company’s capacity to serve a broader range of client needs.
The newly incorporated Citation Bravo, registered as N800WT (msn 550-0859), is a 26-year-old jet that was previously part of Jet Air’s fleet, where it was configured to accommodate up to seven passengers. Although Jet Air retains four more units of this aircraft type, the transfer to Bode Aviation signifies a strategic enhancement of Bode’s operational capabilities.
This jet is now the second Part 135-certified aircraft of its kind in Bode Aviation’s fleet, complementing a 42.8-year-old Citation II. The expansion does not stop with jets; Bode Aviation also manages a variety of propeller aircraft, including a Cessna T210M, a King Air E90, and three Pilatus PC-12s, under the same certification. This diverse fleet underscores the company’s commitment to providing versatile and comprehensive aviation solutions.
Based in Albuquerque, Bode Aviation doesn’t just limit its services to private charters. The company is deeply involved in a variety of aviation-related activities, which include aerial firefighting operations—a critical service given the increasing frequency of wildfires. Additionally, Bode Aviation offers aircraft maintenance and modification services, contributing to the safety and efficiency of flight operations.
Further supporting the aviation community, Bode Aviation provides flight training for aspiring pilots, equipping them with the skills needed to navigate the complexities of modern aviation. The company also operates fixed-base operations (FBO) at Albuquerque Double Eagle II, facilitating a range of ground services such as fueling, hangaring, tie-down and parking, aircraft rental, aircraft maintenance, and more.
This strategic expansion of Bode Aviation’s fleet with the Citation Bravo is poised to enhance the company’s service offerings, ensuring it can meet the evolving demands of its clientele. Whether for private travel, training, or critical firefighting missions, Bode Aviation continues to demonstrate its commitment to excellence and safety in all facets of its operations.
