Why the Gulfstream G700 Fits Nantucket
Long range departures use Nantucket Memorial (KACK), and because the island has no customs an international trip clears at Cape Cod Gateway (KHYA) first.
A published range of 7,500 nautical miles brings Los Angeles, San Francisco, London and Paris within reach of Nantucket, before the operator applies reserves and routing for the day.
Winds change the answer as well. A westbound leg into a headwind eats into range, so an aircraft that flies a route nonstop in one season may need a fuel stop in another.
There is no customs on Nantucket, so an international trip clears on the mainland. Cape Cod Gateway Airport at Hyannis is the nearest customs landing rights airport, and Martha’s Vineyard has none either.
Aircraft with more than nine passenger seats need two hours’ prior permission at Nantucket Memorial Airport, which covers most aircraft in this class. Your advisor makes that call, and it is one reason we ask for your timings early. Martha’s Vineyard requires prior permission twenty-four hours in advance.
The runway required on the day is a performance calculation the operator makes for that aircraft, at that weight, in the conditions on your date, so we confirm it with them for your specific trip.
Vetting Behind Every Trip
Every operator, aircraft, and crew goes through our internal due diligence before we present any options. Our internal standards meet or exceed what the FAA requires:
- FAR Part 135 charter operators for traditional private aircraft, or FAR Part 121 for airliner-size and group trips (or the foreign equivalent on international legs)
- Operator subscription to Wyvern and ARGUS reviewed where the operator participates.
- Pilot experience and operator incident history reviewed before we recommend an aircraft.
- Fewer than 60 brokers worldwide hold Premium Wyvern Broker Member status, and Air Charter Advisors is one of them.
