Aero-News Quote of the Day

“Finalizing this purchase is very exciting for Todd and me. We both see great potential in the people and products the three companies offer. I have been the General Manager at Progressive Air since 2012 and to now be an owner/partner of not only that company, but its two sister organizations as well, is truly fulfilling. Alvin Hickey and Brian Barron, the original founders of the companies, and their longtime partner George Tetreau, have built an exceptional group of businesses and when they said they would be interested in selling it was just too good of an opportunity for Todd and I to pass up.”
