Welcome to Shortstop Jet Charter

Private jet charter and air charter entertainment services at Shortstop Jet Charters in Melbourne, Australia.

Our primary services are corporate business private jet charters utilising our Learjet 35A or Citation II aircraft, as well as entertainment flights in our DC3 “Gooney Bird” or the executive jets.

Shortstop’s private jets are the ideal travel mode for corporate personnel or business goods to be transported with the highest levels of efficiency, dependability and privacy. With a travel range of up to 3800 kms our aircraft can service Australasia and the Pacific.

Our nostalgic and entertainment charter flights are ideal for private individuals and groups for celebrations and occasions as well as effective corporate promotional activities in Melbourne or Australia.

We also have a choice of ex-military warbirds for charter that are popular with aviation enthusiasts, can participate in airshows and are used for movie shoots and commercial promotions or pilot training and experience.

An increasing part of our activity involves consultation and advice on all aspects of Corporate Aviation. We research, evaluate, audit, negotiate and bring into service business aircraft on behalf of some of the leading companies and individuals in the region.

Our experience of more than thirty years of these tasks gives us the background to provide practical aviation advice, no matter what the requirement. We've had a part in arranging the purchase or sale of more than one hundred million dollars of aviation hardware over the past few years.
