Signature Flight Support has assumed flight support services for business aviation at Hyeres Airport (TLN) in Toulon, France.

Operating out of the main terminal until the new purpose-built 4,000 square foot FBO facility is completed in the second quarter of 2004, Signature began service in Toulon on January 5, 2004.

Bruno Hardy will oversee operations at the fixed base operation and will report to Louis DeMarque, general manager of Signature’s Paris LBG facility.

Toulon is located between Nice and Marseilles in the provence/

Côte d’Azur region of southeast France. “Although Toulon is an important commercial and naval port for France, we expect most traffic will come through our facility in the summers, as tourists come

to stay in Provence,” said Beth Haskins, Signature ceo.

“We’re very excited about the opportunity to expand our international operations with this facility and we look forward to serving this new market.”

The Toulon location marks Signature’s fourth European location, including an FBO at Le Bourget International Airport (LBG) in Paris and two in the UK.
