We are the premier aviation provider creating ease of access into Southeast Michigan and the surrounding areas.

Robert T. Sarazin Vice President FBO Services

“I’ve met all kinds of inspiring people in aviation – I’ve shaken hands with three U.S. presidents out on the ramp. But overall, what really inspires me, and gives me the most satisfaction, is doing something that makes other people’s lives easier. I’ll do everything in my power to make sure our clients have the best experience, in every situation.”

– Bob Sarazin, VP FBO Services
