EXECUTIVE BEECHCRAFT NOW AWARDS AVTRIP POINTS TO PILOTS

ANN ARBOR, Mich. — November 28, 2007 — Aviation service provider Executive Beechcraft has joined the Avfuel-branded dealer network.  As one of a growing number of Avfuel dealers, EB will now award AVTRIP points to participating pilots when they refuel at any of EB's three Kansas City Fixed-Base Operations: Kansas City Downtown (MKC), Kansas City International (MCI) and New Century Air Center (IXD).

Under the AVTRIP program, the full-service FBO will award two AVTRIP points per gallon of fuel purchased by participating pilots from MKC, MCI or IXD.  When pilots accumulate 5,000 points, they are issued a $50 U.S. Savings Bond by the U.S. Government.  Points can also be donated to a charity of the AVTRIP member's choice.  The program's 38,000 members can earn points at over 400 AVTRIP locations. 

"We've already seen great results," EB President Scott Tychsen said.  "I'm excited about our partnership with Avfuel.  Offering AVTRIP points encourages pilots to bring their business here." 

"We're looking forward to a long and successful partnership with EB," said Marci Ammerman, Avfuel Corporation Director of Marketing.  "The quality of service to both customer and aircraft is extraordinary.  We recognized the value of these locations in Kansas City, and the strength the business has in the region."
