Cunningham Aviation has become the latest member of the Paragon Network, bringing its Falcon Field operation into the fold. Based in Mesa, Arizona, the company was launched in 2020 by private pilot George Cunningham and operates out of a restored 30,000 square-foot hangar once used by Hughes Helicopters. The site now supports fuelling and storage, and also houses the Cunningham family’s auction and appraisal businesses. Over the years, George Cunningham has handled sales of aircraft such as Cessna 172s and the final two airworthy Mach 2 Vought F-8 Crusaders.

Paragon Aviation Group president Crystal Kubeczka says: “We are very pleased to welcome Cunningham Aviation to the Paragon Network. Its remarkable growth, deep-rooted passion for aviation and commitment to preserving history while delivering top-tier service make it an exceptional addition.”

Cunningham adds: “I’ve always had a love for flying and aviation. The opportunity to restore this hangar and serve the veteran community has been incredibly rewarding, and joining the Paragon Network is an exciting next step for us.”

By joining Paragon, the company aligns itself with a global group of audited FBOs and handling agents committed to operational excellence.
