Why the Beech Baron 58 Fits Salt Lake City
Around Salt Lake City these trips usually leave from Salt Lake City International Airport (KSLC/SLC), though Ogden-Hinckley Airport (KOGD/OGD) and Provo Airport (KPVU/PVU) are often closer if you are starting north or south of the city.
A published range of 1,480 nautical miles brings Seattle, Dallas, Cabo San Lucas and Chicago within reach of Salt Lake City, before the operator applies reserves and routing for the day.
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.
