Indianapolis-based Eagle Creek Aviation, a provider at the city’s Eagle Creek Airpark Airport, has agreed to purchase fellow long-time Indiana family-owned FBO operator Montgomery Aviation. The transaction, which is subject to approval by local authorities, includes the Montgomery FBO and maintenance facility at Indianapolis Executive airport, as well as its FBOs at Frankfort Municipal Airport and the Grissom Aeroplex. Montgomery is the sole aviation services provider at all three locations.

“Montgomery Aviation has a long history of providing customer service over the last 25 years at Indy Exec Airport as well as its other Indiana locations. Along with Hamilton County, it [has expanded] the airport from a small rural airport to one of Indy’s premier general aviation facilities,” said Eagle Creek CEO Matt Hagans. “Our intent is to continue to build upon what has been established.” Eagle Creek also owns Naples Jet Center at Florida’s Naples Municipal Airport.
