Sunwest Aviation FAQ

How many jets does Sunwest Aviation have?

Over the last 90 days we recorded 11 different jets under the ICAO callsign CNK, 11 of them also in the last 30 days. The actual fleet may be larger: jets out of receiver range, in maintenance or flying under a different callsign are not counted.

Where is Sunwest Aviation based?

According to the ICAO designator list published by the US Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), Sunwest Aviation Ltd is registered in Canada. The list records the three-letter ICAO code, country and radio callsign of every operator.

What callsign does Sunwest Aviation use?

Sunwest Aviation flies under the ICAO callsign CNK; on the radio the crew identifies as "CHINOOK". On flight-tracking maps the callsign shows up as the code plus a flight number, e.g. CNK123. That is how we attribute flights to the operator.

The types we recorded most often under the Sunwest Aviation callsign over the last 90 days: Learjet 45 (3 jets), Bombardier Challenger 600/650 (2 jets), Bombardier Challenger 300 (2 jets) and Beechcraft King Air 350 (1 jet).

How much CO₂ does the Sunwest Aviation fleet emit?

In the last 30 days the recorded flights emitted an estimated 806 t of CO₂ over 299.9 flight hours; year to date it is 1,494 t from 255 flights. The estimate multiplies the typical fuel burn of the aircraft class by flight time and 3.16 kg of CO₂ per kg of jet fuel.

How can I track Sunwest Aviation live?

The map above shows every jet of the fleet that is currently broadcasting ADS-B positions (0 airborne at the last update). Click a registration to open the flight history and live position of that jet. Flights are assigned via the ICAO callsign CNK.

Data sources & notes

Data source: public ADS-B data

All positions come from publicly broadcast ADS-B signals that every aircraft transmits unencrypted and that volunteers around the world receive. Data may be delayed, incomplete or inaccurate.

Linking an aircraft to a well-known person is based on public sources such as media reports and registry data. "Jet attributed to X" explicitly does not mean that this person is on board or ordered the flight. Aircraft are also chartered, sold or used by others.

All information is provided without warranty; no liability is accepted for accuracy or completeness. CO₂ figures are estimates based on typical fuel burn for the aircraft class.

Using this data to harass, track or stalk people is prohibited.
