Week in Review

Business aviation at Lynchburg Regional Airport remained active throughout the week, with a mix of locally based aircraft, charter and fractional jets, and visiting business aircraft connecting Lynchburg with destinations from New England to Florida and the Midwest.

Fractional and charter operators were particularly visible early in the week. Wheels Up Phenom 300s made multiple stops Monday and Tuesday, while NetJets brought a Challenger 350 through Lynchburg on Monday and a larger Challenger 650 on Wednesday. The Challenger 650 arrived from Leesburg before continuing to Florida.

Locally based aircraft also accounted for several longer-distance trips. Citation Excel N936EA traveled to Richmond before returning shortly after midnight Tuesday and later departing for Kansas City. Citation N469RB made several trips during the week, including flights involving Pennsylvania, North Carolina and Erie, Pa., before returning to Lynchburg Sunday morning.

Other notable visitors included a Citation Mustang from Naples, Fla.; a Citation CJ3+ from Tulsa, Okla.; a Citation Excel arriving Saturday from Hanscom Field outside Boston; and several Pilatus PC-12 turboprops. Two Cirrus Vision Jets also visited Tuesday, with another Vision Jet movement recorded Friday.

The week also produced unusual non-business aviation activity. A U.S. Army UH-72A Lakota associated with the Maryland Army National Guard arrived Thursday from Aberdeen Proving Ground, while a civilian-operated Sikorsky UH-60A Black Hawk was active at Lynchburg Friday.

Agenda PJ's tracks notable private, business, charter and government aviation activity at Lynchburg Regional Airport. It is not intended to be a complete accounting of every airport operation. Routine airline service, flight-school training, most local general-aviation flights and medical helicopter operations are generally excluded.
