Thanks

This question gets asked about a million times. All you had to do was a little search to find the info.

At any rate, here ya go.

Primac used to fly them for cargo/passenger out of TEB (operation folded around 2001)

Tradewind Aviation flies a couple out of HPN

There is one based at CDW (Caldwell, NJ) that is operated Part 135 (Air Newark I think)

I really do appreciate the response. The reason why I'm asking is to find out if those companies minimums are the normal IFR 135 mins or if they are higher because of the plane being turbine.

the norm for fedex feeder is 2,000 total.

most of the others just require basic 135 mins.

theres a slew of guys that went to the others until 2,000 then made the jump to fedex.
