Published May 17, 2011

Oryx Jet, a young, majority British-owned aircraft management and charter company, announced today that it a new aircraft has joined the managed aircraft fleet and will also be available for charter. The Falcon 50EX aircraft will be based in London Biggin Hill Airport, home to Oryx Jet within Rizon Jet’s brand new offices and state-of-the-art MRO / FBO facility. The aircraft is privately registered and given to Oryx Jet for full management in April this year.

The company secured its Aircraft Operating Certificate (AOC) from the UK Civil Aviation Authority last year, enabling it to offer public charter services. Its initial managed fleet centres on a Hawker 900XP and a Premier IA. Through its affiliation with Rizon Jet the company has also very good access to the part 145 maintenance and the FBO / VIP Lounge in London Biggin Hill and so can offer a full range of services to its customers.

“We are delighted to welcome the new aircraft to our managed fleet.” said Mike Bradley Russell, Chief Executive Officer of Oryx Jet and adds “ the growth of our charter fleet is reflecting also the demand in the market which has been increasing over recent months and now with the opening of the brand new Rizon Jet facility and FBO / VIP Lounge, we expect the interest to continue to rise.
