Space Coast Executive Jet Center (SCEJC) is the prototypical mom-and-pop FBO, according to its owner, Carsten Petersen, who purchased the facility in 2021 with his wife, Wendy. One of two service providers at Florida’s Space Coast Regional Airport (KTIX), the company has occupied the same 1,500-sq-ft terminal since the late 1970s and has a staff of six full-time employees.

“Titusville has been a sleepy little city for years, but it is growing now,” said Petersen. “There are about 6,000 housing units being built, and big companies are buying land.”
