Platinum Flight Center joins Avfuel network

By Janice Wood · February 19, 2012 ·

Platinum Flight Center at Outagamie Regional Airport (ATW) in Appleton, Wis., just up the road from Oshkosh, home to EAA AirVenture, has partnered with fuel supplier Avfuel to become part of the Avfuel-branded FBO network.

“Avfuel provides superior customer support and backing,” said Platinum Flight Center Operations Manager Patrick Smith. “The initial installation was flawless, as is the ongoing support. In addition, Avfuel’s top-notch marketing, streamlined bookkeeping and point-of-sale efficiencies serve us very well, and the AVTRIP program is superior to all other incentive programs.”

The Platinum Flight Center team acquired the existing FBO at Outagamie Regional Airport in 2010. The facility was remodeled that year, and a new relocated FBO and hangar complex is slated to begin construction mid-2012. Platinum Flight Center boasts a large, comfortable pilot lounge and a flight planning room with multiple work stations, Avfuel officials note, adding quick turns, a large ramp and comprehensive ground services appeal to flight crews, while all passengers and guests receive complimentary beverages and snacks and take advantage of the FBO’s “red carpet” service.

“Avfuel is very excited to assist Platinum Flight Center as they leverage our slate of products and solutions such as the AVTRIP program and Avfuel Contract Fuel to maximize their guests’ experiences,” said Avfuel Director of Marketing Marci Ammerman. “We look forward to supporting them in their endeavors.”
