Located at Lincoln airport, Ross Aviation Lincoln includes a fully remodelled facility that boasts NATA certified line crew and client services specialists, full-service flight maintenance and detail shop. AVCARD is on offer.
Ross at Lincoln is a convenient option for cross-country fuel stops.

World Fuel Services has announced that Ross Aviation Lincoln has become the fourth Ross Aviation member location of the Air Elite by World Fuel Network. The facility joins fellow Ross Aviation locations Ross Aviation in Long Beach, California, Great Circle Flight Services in Anchorage, Alaska and RossAviation (formerly Rectrix) in Sarasota, Florida as member locations that uphold the exceptional qualities and standards only found within the Air Elite Network.

Located at Lincoln airport, Ross Aviation Lincoln includes a fully remodelled facility that boasts NATA certified line crew and client services specialists, full-service flight maintenance and detail shop. This location's position in America's heartland makes it a less congested option for cross-country fuel stops so customers can expect quick turns and quality service.

In May, Ross Aviation acquired the FBO and MRO business of Silverhawk Aviation in Lincoln, Nebraska. The facility consistently ranks as one of the top FBOs in the midwest due to its expansive flight maintenance capabilities. Silverhawk continues to operate the fractional, charter and aircraft management services business.

Ross COO Cy Farmer says: “Our facility in Lincoln will continue to maintain the high standards upheld by Silverhawk and the Air Elite Network. We remain dedicated to providing elevated service and have also implemented sustainability initiatives that include our 'Fly More. Leave Less' carbon offset programme.”

Along with keeping its facilities safe and efficient, Ross Aviation shares the Air Elite Network's commitment to sustainability.

Steve Drzymalla, senior VP of business aviation bulk fuel at World Fuel Services, states: “We are excited to expand our relationship with Ross Aviation and welcome this strategic location in the midwest. Its commitment to safety and flight hospitality culture make this location an excellent fit for the Air Elite Network.”

As a member of the World Fuel Network, Ross Aviation Lincoln's customers will benefit from access to World Fuel Contract pricing, AVCARD by World Fuel acceptance and World Fuel Rewards. As an Air Elite Network member, this location participates in the Air Elite Bonus, providing its customers additional World Fuel Rewards points for their business and loyalty.
