Executive Air Taxi

What Executive Air Taxi does

Executive Air Taxi Corporation is a privately held, full-service aviation company founded in 1973 and headquartered at Bismarck Municipal Airport (KBIS) in Bismarck, North Dakota. The company operates across six integrated business lines: FAA Part 135 private charter (Hawker 4000, Hawker 800XP, Beechcraft Premier 1A, and a King Air turboprop series fleet serving North America including Mexico and the Caribbean); FBO services at KBIS (24/7 fuel, 32,000 sq ft of hangar, line services, de-icing, and amenities under a CAA-preferred designation with waived landing/handling fees); FAA Part 145 aircraft maintenance and parts (factory-authorized for Bell Helicopter, Cirrus, Cessna, Beechcraft, Robinson, and Garmin, with 5,000+ line items and AOG service); air medical services (fixed-wing, rotor-wing, and organ transportation, including a core partnership with Trinity Health First Response Air covering a 150-mile radius of Minot); flight training and rentals via the wholly owned Bismarck Flight Academy; and full-service aircraft management for owners.

The underlying technology stack is rooted in FAA-certified aviation operations: Part 135 air carrier authorization, Part 145 repair station certification (Certificate # CTYR019D), an ARGUS Gold rating for the charter division, US Government Approved Vendor status, and standard back-office flight operations and booking systems. There is no evidence of proprietary software platforms, APIs, or AI/ML capabilities in the data; the technology differentiator is regulatory and procedural rather than software-defined.

The business model is multi-stream and transactional: charter revenue is quote-based on aircraft, distance, and trip; FBO revenue is driven by JET A ($6.35) and 100 LL ($7.20) fuel sales plus ancillary fees; maintenance is professional services pricing with parts margin; training is per-program tuition; aircraft management is managed services; and EMS is contracted/managed. The company goes to market through direct enterprise sales for charter and government contracts, a self-serve FBO model for transient pilots, and an OEM-anchored service center channel. Customers span business and leisure charter, general aviation pilots, healthcare systems, and individual pilot trainees. Ownership is closely held by local operators with no disclosed external investors or funding rounds, and the 2025 divestiture of the Green Bay FBO to Avflight signals active portfolio rationalization around the Bismarck hub.
