Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Distinguish Шаблон:Infobox Airline Contour Aviation (legally Corporate Flight Management, Inc. d.b.a. Contour Aviation) is a multifaceted aviation services company based in Smyrna, Tennessee, USA. It started operations in 1982 as an on-demand charter service for passengers and freight in the southern United States, as well as a full-service Federal Aviation Administration certificated repair station and a fixed-base operator. Contour maintains its corporate office at the Smyrna Airport.[1] It currently operates charter flights, provides aircraft management, sales, government services, and maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) services.[2]

Contour Aviation is the parent company of Contour Airlines, a public charter operator which provides scheduled domestic service like a regional airline.[3] Contour Airlines charters 30-seat Embraer regional jets operated by Contour Aviation and then resells seats on that aircraft to the public. The arrangement allows Contour to utilize pilots who are qualified to operate charter services, who can be either less experienced or older than allowed on commercial passenger flights.[4]
