Sky Bright, a full-service fixed base operator (FBO) at Laconia Municipal Airport (KLCI) in Gilford, New Hampshire, has joined the Paragon Network, expanding the audited FBO and handling agent network’s presence in New England.

Located near Lake Winnipesaukee, Laconia Municipal Airport serves New Hampshire’s Lakes Region, including destinations such as New Hampshire Motor Speedway and BankNH Pavilion. Sky Bright supports private aircraft operators, corporate flight departments, aircraft owners and crews with aircraft fuelling, line services, maintenance, hangar and tiedown accommodation, aircraft management and pilot services.

Lee Avery, owner of Sky Bright, says: “Joining the Paragon Network gives Sky Bright an opportunity to build new relationships throughout the business aviation community while continuing to provide the personal service our customers have relied on since 1988.”

Founded in 1988 by Lee Avery and Greg Livernois, Sky Bright has grown into a comprehensive aviation operation while maintaining its independent identity. Michael Tuck became a co-owner in 2025, supporting continued investment in the company’s services.

Beyond its FBO services, Sky Bright runs Laconia Flight Academy, which operates four training aircraft, a Redbird FMX flight simulator and a team of eight instructors. The company has also received two Premier Spirit Gold Customer Service Awards from ExxonMobil Aviation.

Crystal Kubeczka, president and CEO of Paragon Aviation Group, adds: “Adding KLCI strengthens our coverage in New England while giving operators a trusted option when travelling to the Lakes Region.”

As a member of the Paragon Network, Sky Bright will maintain its independent, locally operated identity while benefiting from wider industry connections, strategic partnerships and collaborative opportunities throughout the network.
