Four Rivers joins Avfuel network at Barkley Regional
Airport Management Solutions has expanded its FBO footprint in Kentucky by rebranding the sole Barkley Regional facility under the Avfuel partnership.
Four Rivers Aviation is the only full-service FBO at Barkley Regional Airport.

Four Rivers Aviation became an Avfuel-branded FBO on 1 February following its takeover of Midwest Aviation at Barkley Regional Airport in West Paducah, Kentucky. Airport Management Solutions (AMS), operating under its third Avfuel FBO and fifth location overall, will provide the only full-service facility on the airfield.

The FBO offers GPS, ILS and PAPI approaches along with full line services and ground handling for aircraft from light types to corporate jets. Situated near Nashville and St. Louis, its central location in western Kentucky also appeals to leisure and military traffic.

Avfuel's Joel Hirst says: “AMS has been a valued partner of Avfuel for years and we are excited to be part of its newest venture with Four Rivers Aviation.”

AMS’ Erick Larson adds: “Our strong partnership with Avfuel will continue to drive enhancements within the aviation community and deliver powerful solutions to our customers.”

The site offers Avfuel Contract Fuel pricing, AVTRIP rewards and simplified transactions through the Avfuel Pro Card.
