Ad Astral Aviation was a charter airline and former advanced flight school based at Perth Airport, Western Australia from 1986 to 2016. The company's name originated from the Latin phrase and common Air Force term 'ad astra' which means "to the stars".
Operations
Ad Astral operated from the Perth Flight Centre in the general aviation precinct at Perth Airport. The charter airline branch of the company operated across Western Australia on mining contract flights as well as some occasional interstate ad hoc charters.
In late 2016, Ad Astral was acquired by Adelaide based charter airline Rossair in a deal to help both companies capture more of the growing tourism market in both South Australia and Western Australia.
