Clipper Aviation is an FAA Part 135 charter operator based at Van Nuys Airport in Southern California, and its empty leg flights are posted on SkyAccess for travelers chasing one-way charter value. Empty legs arise whenever an aircraft repositions between assignments, turning a one-way repositioning flight into a discounted empty leg deal.
Beyond charter, Clipper offers maintenance, brokerage and crew training from its Van Nuys home, giving the operation deep institutional grounding on the West Coast.
From its Van Nuys base, Clipper empty legs commonly run across California and the wider western United States, so travelers with flexible plans who can match a repositioning flight will find the best pricing on a one-way charter. The discounted leg is operated under the same FAA Part 135 certificate, with the same professional pilots and the same maintenance program as a full-price charter, so an empty leg flight never trades away safety.
