Avfuel upbeat, says 80% are still flying planes
You can’t accuse Craig Sincock, president and CEO of Avfuel, of being a pessimist.

You can’t accuse Craig Sincock, president and CEO of Avfuel, of being a pessimist. Asked about the current state of business for Avfuel, he said, “Eighty percent of our business is still happening.”

That’s a fairly accurate gauge of current business aviation activity, at least in North America. Avfuel (Booth No. 227) supports 700 branded fuel dealers and 2,500 other aviation customers across the U.S. The Ann Arbor, Michigan-based company has about a 20-percent market share, both in terms of number of FBOs served and number of gallons pumped. So fuel sold by Avfuel provides a reasonable measure about the level of business aviation flight activity.
