N165QS is a 2015 Bombardier Global 6000. It works in NetJets Aviation's floating charter fleet: on the Part 135 certificate (DXTA), and positioned wherever the next trip starts rather than kept at one airport. In the twelve months to 7 September 2026 it flew 378 legs on 176 days, about 231,667 nautical miles. That is 93% more than the median Bombardier Global 6000 in U.S. charter service (106 airframes tracked), which puts it among the harder-working examples of the type. It touched 112 airports but keeps returning to the same city pairs: 67% of legs repeat a route already flown in the year.
