Airlines, charter and fractional operators, flight schools, crop-spraying and delivery companies, police and government fleets, and the owner trustees that hold aircraft for lessors. Each has a page listing its aircraft.

How aircraft are sorted into kinds

The FAA records a type for every aircraft (fixed-wing single or multi-engine, rotorcraft, glider, balloon and so on), an engine type, and a seat count from its model table. This site combines them: drones are aircraft with no seats; electric and sustainable aircraft carry the FAA's electric engine code and carry people or come from a watchlist maker; jets with 30 seats or more are counted as airliners and large jets, those with fewer as business jets; turbine-driven propeller aircraft are turboprops; everything else follows the FAA's own type. The rule for each kind is written at the top of its page.
