Company History
1970s
Jet Air was established in 1969 in Clintonville, Wisconsin and in 1970 became an authorized Mitsubishi MU-2 Service Center. In the 70′s Jet Air also was a Service Center for the Fairchild SA226 and SA227 aircraft.
1980s
In 1980, Jet Air relocated to Green Bay, Wisconsin to support the new Mitsubishi MU-300, now known as the Beechjet 400, with a new maintenance facility.
In the early 80′s, Jet Air became a full line Service Center for Piper aircraft as well as a Honeywell TPE331 series engine Major Service Center supporting the various engine models associated with the MU-2, Turbo Commanders, Merlins, Cessna Conquest, and Beechcraft B100 aircraft.
Along with the Honeywell engines, Jet Air also became affiliated with Dallas Airmotive and Standard Aero, supporting the Pratt & Whitney PT6 and JT15 engines for the Beechcraft King Air, Piper Cheyenne, MU-300, Beechjet, and Cessna Citation.
We implemented our accessory shop, which included starter generator overhauls along with cleaning and flowing of the TPE331 and PT6 engine fuel nozzles.
We established a full line avionics shop with all the major product lines. As avionics advanced, we continued to add-on the new products to our capability list.
In 1984, Jet Air purchased an existing fixed base operator (FBO), then known as Jet Air Fuel Corp.
In the late 80′s, Jet Air established a calibration laboratory and continued to expand with the industry’s needs.
2000s
In 2003, Jet Air was purchased by a group of local businessmen.
The Part 135 charter department was implemented, then known as Frontline Aviation, operating Beech King Airs and Piper twins.
We became a Cirrus Authorized Service Center for the SR20 and SR22 series aircraft.
2010
A new state-of-the-art facility was constructed to house the entire company’s operations: a full-service FBO, aircraft maintenance, avionics, air charter, flight training, and calibration. With the consolidation, the company name was changed to Jet Air Group.
Jet Air Group became a partner with Lakeland College, providing flight training for Lakeland’s four-year aviation minor program in Sheboygan, Wisconsin.
2012
Jet Air Group added a CATS FAA computerized testing center and an FAA-approved flight simulator to its Green Bay flight school location. FAA approval was granted for private pilot and instrument rating Part 141 programs.
In November, Jet Air Group became a Signature Select Fixed Base Operator (FBO) to further enhance our services.
Looking Ahead…
