POLAR AVIATION (1981 - 2024) Polar Aviation began in 1981 when Clark Butson recognised a clear need in the Pilbara. Remote communities were being left behind - cut off by distance and lacking reliable transport options. Clark believed they deserved better: dependable access to essential services, safe travel, and the same opportunities as those in major cities. From its earliest flights, Polar was more than just a charter service. It became a vital connection - moving students, supporting mining operations, delivering freight, and even responding to emergencies. Operating its own turbine aircraft, building hangars in key locations, and investing in in-house training and navigation systems, Polar built a reputation for doing things properly and showing up where others wouldn’t. Key operations during this time: FIFO flights and critical supply runs for the mining industry Student and passenger charter services to remote communities Flight training for both recreational and commercial pilots Search and Rescue operations across Western Australia Aerial tours showcasing the Pilbara’s landscape Maintenance services for turbine and piston aircraft Full compliance with CAR 217 and proprietary navigation development POLAR AVIATION (2025 - Present) Now based on Australia’s East Coast, Polar Aviation continues to grow, but its commitment remains unchanged. The same principles that shaped the business in the Pilbara still guide it today: do things properly, invest in the right people, and operate to the highest standard. With expanded services in aircraft management and aviation consulting, Polar now supports private clients and aviation organisations looking to raise their operational game. And with the addition of international charter capabilities, the business has crossed a significant milestone - offering cross-border travel backed by decades of regional aviation experience. What Polar offers today: Full-service aircraft management for private and commercial clients Consulting for aviation operators, training organisations, and corporates International charter capability across Asia-Pacific and beyond A team defined by precision, discipline, and operational excellence

Sharp was established in 1990 as an aviation company focused on Australia’s Southeast region. From a modest start with just one single-engine aircraft and two staff, it currently employs over 80 full-time and part-time staff throughout its bases across Australia. During the formative years from 1990–2000, Sharp Airlines concentrated on the Airline Cadet Training School and Charter business. The intention was always to develop a commercial pilot cadetship providing more than one licence, ensuring the trainees ended up with a pathway to a future career rather than just a qualification. The goal to provide a career pathway is a key factor in the success of the airline with Sharp Airline cadets working in all major airlines in Australia and around the world. In 2001 Sharp successfully moved into the regular public transport (RPT) services upgrading from the Chieftan piston 10-seater aircraft to the new 19-seater Metroliners. With ever-expanding passenger profile, parallel development occurred with freight services. Today, we offer a same-day delivery service unmatched by other freight providers. In 2012 the focus moved to tourism and development of holiday packages to key Sharp destinations. Our travel consultants at Sharp Travel offer a range of holiday and leisure packages to the Bass Strait Islands. Our packages include airfares, accommodation and car hire, and travellers can choose between ready‐to‐go packages or a tailored package to incorporate the needs of the individual or group. The Sharp story is one of a clear vision, a commitment to excellence and an ability to respond to the rapidly changing sector that is the airline industry. Today Sharp is recognised for its reputation as a leader in regional aviation services. Remaining a locally owned regional business, the Sharp team has built a national profile as a world-class product with a personal touch.
