CAA selects Modesto Jet Center as Preferred FBO
Awarded Preferred FBO at the beginning of the year, Modesto Jet Center can offer negotiated fuel prices and discounted services for approved members of the Corporate Aircraft Association.
The Modesto Jet Center has been voted by CAA members as Preferred FBO at Modesto City airport for three years.

Modesto Jet Center has been recognised by the Corporate Aircraft Association (CAA) as the Preferred FBO location at Modesto City County airport - Harry Sham Field in California. It is now the only CAA Preferred FBO in the heart of the region's Central Valley, and promotes itself as an ideal west coast fuel stop that is just on the outskirts of the San Francisco Bay Area.

The FBO decided to join the CAA in order to support the organisation’s goals of supporting corporate flight departments. CAA Part 91 operator members have benefitted from the CAA’s negotiated fuel price with its Preferred FBOs since 1995 and are able to receive exclusive, competitive fuel prices and discounted services. The contract is exclusive for three years.

Modesto Jet Center is a full service FBO that offers customers a full range of aircraft management, charter, acquisition and brokerage services, as well as fuel sales and line service. It is also an Avfuel-branded FBO, and is considered an ideal departure point for the Hawaiian islands because of its lack of congestion and easy routing directly over the San Francisco Bay Area.
