The FAA publishes a weekly-updated list of Part 135 operators and authorized aircraft, searchable by operator or N-number, and advises asking to see the operator's certificate. Under DOT rule 14 CFR 295.24, a broker must disclose the carrier in operational control before you contract, and if it does not, you can cancel for a full refund. Source: faa.gov, faa.gov, ecfr.gov.
