New venture takes big step at Blairsville Airport

Appalachian Mountain Aviation LLC has achieved an important milestone toward bringing flight training, aircraft maintenance and restorations, and aircraft rentals to the Blairsville Municipal Airport, to serve as a one-stop shop that will be a boon to the local economy.

In their first meeting of the year on Jan. 6, Blairsville City Council members unanimously approved a 30-year ground lease with the company, which plans to build a 100-by-100 hangar to house its business at the airport. The lease comes with an option to extend for 10 years.
