Sun Air Jets was originally founded in 1999. FlyHouse assumed full ownership of Sun Air Jets’ assets and operations and will continue to employ more than 100 employees. The combination immediately expands FlyHouse’s operational depth, geographic presence and technical capabilities, strengthening its ability to support aircraft owners and charter clients across a broader range of missions and markets.

Those operations include hangar, ramp and service infrastructure at Van Nuys and Camarillo Airports, including fixed-based operations in Camarillo. It expands the owned and managed fleet of light, super-mid and large-cabin aircraft and adds an FAA Part 145 repair station, supporting maintenance and inspection activity.
