note
Originally an air-taxi operating turboprop and corporate jets. It was acquired by LTV Corp. in 1970 and traded as LTV Jet Fleet, before being sold in 1975 and reverting to Jet Fleet. It received authority to operate domestic and foreign charters with large aircraft in September 1979, in order to provide sports charters with DC-9 or BAC One-Eleven aircraft. In 1981 its large aircraft flying was split off into Jet Fleet International Airlines. It did not acquire its first large aircraft (a BAC One-Eleven) until 1982, and did not begin flying it until 1983. In 1984 it received authority to operate scheduled services, with plans to operate in the DFW - Gunnison / Steamboat Springs markets, but these flights were never operated. In 1992 it operated some charters for Dolphin Cruise Line and for Club Med using Boeing 737-200s. The airline ceased operations by the end of October, and filed for bankruptcy November 6, 1992.
