Clemens Aviation, which operates a Part 145 repair station and aircraft charter, management, and sales business at Wichita Col. James Jabara Airport (KAAO), has received permission to begin selling fuel, making it the second FBO on the field.

In a meeting this week, the Wichita City Council approved the reclassification, which owner Dwayne Clemens told AIN was the goal when the family-owned business opened its facility at KAAO two years ago. According to Clemens, his company has been pumping 100,000 gallons a month from its own fuel farm for the 30 aircraft it manages. Its fuel farm can store 40,000 gallons of jet-A and 15,000 gallons of avgas.
