Services, Inc., (SBA) an Ardmore, OK based startup charter operator, has contracted with JDA for the 135 Pro™ certification support program.  

135Pro^TM is a low-cost Part 135 certification support program designed to simplify the process and lower costs associated with obtaining a Part 135 Certificate.

The 135Pro certification support program includes manuals specifically tailored to help new charter operators and corporate flight departments satisfy FAA requirements.  A customized web-based application and document manager enables the owner/operator to store and access all Part 135 requirements and obtain full-time support from the JDA expert 135 team.

"SBA Charter Services is glad to announce the engagement of JDA to establish its Part 135 certificate as a result of JDA’s successful track record, said Jarid King, President of SBA Charter Services, Inc. We are excited to offer these services as a result of the increased charter needs in Oklahoma and North Texas.  SBA Charter Services is strategically positioned to meet this developing need".  As a new 135 operator SBA needed expert advice and assistance with the certificate process and JDA offered the best package and experience in the market. I needed to be certain that I could get my operating certificate as efficiently as possible so SBA could start flying revenue passengers in 2011.

"JDA understands the unique challenges that face new 135 operators.  135 Pro focuses on mentoring and training company personnel as well as coordination and interface with the FAA and minimizes the challenges that new 135 operators face in getting certified. We pride ourselves in supporting the client every step of the way,” said Tom Stuckey, JDA Vice President of Business and Commercial Aviation Solutions and manager of the 135Pro program.
