Avfuel Dealer, Gary Jet Center to Build New Hangar at Gary Chicago International Airport

Avfuel Dealer, Gary Jet Center to build new hangar at Gary Chicago International Airport

ANN ARBOR, Mi., March 28, 2007/ Avfuel Corporation Industry News/ -- A long-time Avfuel dealer, Gary Jet Center (GJC), has released plans to build a second hangar for corporate jets at the Gary/Chicago International Airport (GYY).  The 38,000-square-foot hangar is slated for completion this spring, and will supply much-needed additional aircraft storage space for the increasingly vital location.

The $5.0 million hangar will more than double GJC's hangar space in order to meet increasing market demands as high costs and long waits at Midway and O'Hare airports send more private jets to GYY.

"The corporate community is being edged out of Midway because of space restrictions and congestion," says GJC President and Chief Executive Officer, Wil Davis.  "Today, it's all about space, and they aren't making any more there.  Our airport is only thirty minutes away from down town Chicago.  It's a logical step to fly here."   

As a branded Avfuel dealer, Gary Jet Center participates in the popular refueling incentive program for pilots, AVTRIP, which awards pilots with points toward U.S. Savings Bonds with every gallon of fuel purchased.  GJC also makes discounted jet fuel available for on-the-go fuel purchase with Avfuel s competitive commercial contract fuel program.  "We've been an Avfuel dealer since 1995.  We're very happy with the service," said Davis.

Based in Ann Arbor, Michigan, Avfuel Corporation serves the global aviation industry via a network of 600+ domestic dealers and the over 700 international locations where Avfuel Commercial Contract Fuel is positioned.  It provides aviation-related programs and support services and is the leading independent supplier of aviation petroleum products to FBOs as well as a diverse market of specialty carriers including airlines, freight companies, military special operations, helicopter users and corporate flight departments.
