Atlantic Aviation has expanded its FBO network with the acquisition of Glacier Jet Center (GCI), the lone service provider at Montana’s Glacier Park International Airport (KGPI) for nearly half a century. The FBO has a 10,000-sq-ft terminal with a galley, eight-seat conference room, pilot lounge, flight-planning area, concierge, and crew cars. It is also adjacent to the airport’s U.S. customs facility.
The complex features 10 acres of ramp and more than 175,000 sq ft of heated hangar space capable of sheltering aircraft up to a Bombardier Global 6000. Its fuel farm has a capacity of 137,000 gallons of jet-A and 24,000 gallons of avgas.
“[KGPI] is pleased to welcome Atlantic Aviation to our community,” said airport director Rob Ratkowski. “For years, [GCI] has done an excellent job providing first-class service to our general aviation customers. Atlantic Aviation is uniquely suited to continue that tradition.”
For Atlantic, this represents its 106th location in the U.S. and Caribbean, and its first in Montana. “We are extremely proud to be operating in Montana,” said Atlantic CEO Jeff Foland. “Glacier Jet Center has superbly served Kalispell and the surrounding area for nearly 50 years, and created a legacy of strong relationships and dedicated personal service that is in perfect alignment with our values at Atlantic Aviation.”
