Modern Aviation and Sheltair’s previously agreed-upon sale of the latter’s FBO at Long Island Mac Arthur Airport (KISP) has been approved and concluded today with the handover of the facility. The deal, first announced in October, described Sheltair’s divestiture in the New York market, with Modern agreeing to purchase the Florida-based aviation real estate and service provider’s facilities at five area airports.
