Author is long SRFM, seeing it as a Palantir-backed software platform play on Part 135 aviation.

SRFM — LONG The author holds 20,000 shares of SRFM and argues it is not just a small regional airline but a long-term software and operations platform for the fragmented Part 135 aviation market. Palantir owns roughly 20% of SRFM and is deeply involved in the core SurfOS software platform. If SurfOS scales as management suggests, upside could be driven more by software economics than aircraft alone, though execution risk, timeline slippage, and dilution are acknowledged concerns.

My thesis is that this is not just a small regional airline play, but a long-term software + operations platform targeting the fragmented Part 135 aviation market. If SurfOS scales the way management is suggesting, the upside could be driven far more by software economics than aircraft alone.
