MELBOURNE, FL. / February 14, 2017 / GENERAL AVIATION NEWS – Baer
Air (KMLB) announces its official name change to Apex Executive Jet Center (AEJC)
as it expands and upgrades its facilities and services. AEJC will continue its partnership with Avfuel
as a branded fixed base operator (FBO) and will expand its storage and deliverable
capabilities over the next year.
Established in 2003 as Baer Air, the company started
its operations as an FAA certified charter company, providing limited scheduled
service to Florida and Bahamian destinations with piston aircraft. Since then,
the company has grown to provide both turboprop and jet aircraft for its
charter division, full FBO services, and aircraft management and maintenance.
“As we routinely provided aircraft maintenance and
services to our own fleet, we quickly realized the need for a first-class FBO
that could satisfy the needs of the Melbourne International Airport, transit
aircraft and tenants,” said Gary Hall, president of Apex Executive Jet Center.
“Our charter fleet is growing and we will be adding FAA certified air ambulance
services this year. These past four
years, we’ve brought on a number of line technicians and customer service
representatives with a combined work experience of more than 40 years.”
The Apex Executive Jet Center’s new FBO operations
quickly flew to new heights. In order to better serve its customers, the FBO
now plans for major expansions, with a breaking ground ceremony in April. The
items to be expanded include the operation’s ramp, facility and services. The
new 60,000 square foot ramp will be able to accommodate aircraft up to a Boeing
Business Jet. A new 28,000 square foot facility will include a five-star
executive FBO terminal, corporate offices for lease, hangar space and unmatched
hospitality.
With the expansion
of its facilities, Apex Executive Jet Center will also expand its team. Guests
will still be welcomed with the smiling faces they’ve grown to know and trust,
but the addition of team members will enable the FBO to serve more customers
more efficiently.
