Flying Magazine’s Parade of Planes Announces the Southeast Location

Aircraft Specialists Jet Center Selected to Host Aircraft Regional Sales Event

July 2, 2009 (Duluth, MN) – Today AMPT Associates, Inc. announced that Aircraft Specialists Jet Center at Gwinnett County (KLZU) will host FLYING Magazine’s Parade of Planes™ Southeast event. This event, the third of four regional Parade of Planes events scheduled for 2009, occurs August 13 – 15, 2009.

“Most people don’t realize the decisions and variables that go into site selection for an event such as Parade of Planes,” stated Randy Bolinger of AMPT Associates. “Ramp space, ramp access and scheduling conflicts are the easy items to resolve. However, many other factors affect where we’re able to hold an event. Staff, attitude and convenience are also important variables that drive site selection.” Gwinnett County/Briscoe Field keeps Parade of Planes close to the Atlanta Metro area yet allows aviators from outside the area convenient access with virtually no delays or Class B airspace challenges. The highly-competent, energetic and courteous staff was ultimately what made Aircraft Specialists Jet Center the best location for the event.

Additionally Aircraft Specialists Jet Center offers the required amenities and services required to host an event of this scope. Aircraft Specialists Jet Center is a full-service FBO operating around the clock 365 days a year. While many aviators are attracted to the convenience of Briscoe Field as an Atlanta reliever, the customer service, amenities and fuel prices at Aircraft Specialists Jet Center create loyal customers. Aircraft Specialists Jet Center boasts over 100,000 square feet of heated hangar space, offers 100LL and Jet A fuel, accepts all major credit cards, offers complimentary wireless Internet access, executive conference space, quite room, WSI weather and is located adjacent to The Flying Machine restaurant. Additionally, Aircraft Specialists Jet Center has also agreed to waive service fees for pilots who fly to Parade of Planes.

Soon, AMPT will soon be releasing the preliminary exhibitor list for FLYING’s Parade of Planes – Southeast. Consumers can expect to see many of the most popular aircraft ranging from light sport, to piston single and twin, to turbo props and light jets.

The remaining dates and locations of FLYING Magazine’s Parade of Planes are:

  • Southeast (Gwinnett County Airport/Briscoe Field, Lawrenceville, GA) August 13–15, 2009
  • West (Hayward Executive Airport, Hayward, CA), October 15–17, 2009
