Little Hawk Logistics LLC has moved its charter operations to the FAA Part 135 air carrier certificate of 45 North Flight, certificate number 9CCA698M. The last flight under the previous arrangement was flown at the end of December 2024.
The move closes ten years with Meridian Air Group. Little Hawk signed its management contract with Meridian in April 2014 and flew its first TBM that same month. It then took eleven months to get the aircraft signed off by the FAA for charter service, and Little Hawk carried its first charter passengers in March 2015.
“Meridian Air Group believed in me when I came to them with the unproven idea to put a TBM into charter service,” said Eric Walden, founder and president of Little Hawk Logistics. “Their support and partnership allowed me to build the foundation of what we have today.”
The transition changed the certificate holder. It did not change the fleet, the crew or the flying — the same aircraft, the same pilots and the same clients carried on without interruption. Little Hawk Logistics LLC is an air charter broker and the owner of the aircraft. It is not a direct air carrier and does not exercise operational control of any flight. Charter flights are operated by 45 North Flight, the direct air carrier, under FAA Air Carrier Certificate 9CCA698M, which holds sole operational control of every flight. About the company →
