Airport Management Solutions, LLC Purchases Tupelo Aviation Unlimited (KTUP)

Having managed FBO operations at Tupelo Regional Airport (KTUP) since June 2012, Airport Management Solutions, LLC (AMS) announced it now wholly owns the assets of Tupelo Aviation Unlimited after its purchase from the Tupelo Airport Authority was finalized on October 1.

“On October 1, AMS made a major commitment to its based tenants, the airport and the Tupelo Mississippi area,” said Erick Larson, AMS director of Business Development. “We look forward to continuing to provide the aviation community with exceptional service at reasonable prices.”

The Avfuel-branded FBO provides its customers with premixed Jet-A and Avgas through both full service fueling operations and self-serve units. Corporate flight departments also benefit from the availability of office and hangar space including 77,000 square feet of hangar space. In addition, Tupelo Aviation Unlimited holds the airport’s military fueling contract and provides ground handling services for major Southeastern Conference (SEC) college sporting events.

Of the purchase, Cliff Nash, Executive Director of Tupelo Regional Airport, said, “I am excited about our new relationship with AMS, dba Tupelo Aviation Unlimited, and look forward to working and growing with them in the coming years.”
