New FBO Opens on Alabama's Gulf Coast
Platinum Jet Center is the first of what its owners hope will become an FBO Chain.

Platinum Air Center, a new FBO at Jack Edwards Airport (JKA) in Gulf Shores, Ala., began operations this week. One of three service providers at the airport, the facility is based out of a 3,500-sq-ft temporary modular complex—featuring a pilot lounge, flight planning room and work stations with high-speed Wi-Fi—on the southeast side of the nearly 7,000-foot main Runway 9/27.
