2 April 2020: Aviators Plus in partnership with Phillips 66 is a full-service FBO located in Brenham, Texas, halfway between Austin and Houston. It is located at the south end of Brenham Municipal Airport (11R).
It was started in 2009, as a maintenance shop and piloting service, which catered to single engines, twin engines, turbo props and jets. Later Brent Nedbalek, the president of Aviators Plus started charter operations, and as that business grew, he saw a need to ensure reliable fuel supply for his customers. Thus, the FBO operation was born and the partnership with Phillips 66 began.
Now, Aviators Plus is the only full-service FBO in Washington County, offering fuel services, aircraft maintenance and inspections, hangar space, and a wide range of FBO amenities and services including showers, a lounge room, car rental and hotel reservations, Wi-Fi, and a snack shop.
"I'm excited to have this opportunity to grow the aviation community in Brenham," said Nedbalek. "After years of preparation, we can now offer travellers a full-service FBO founded on red carpet service and reliable fuel supply. I trust in our relationship with Phillips 66, as our fuel supplier. Working with them has been the absolute best, and I'm excited about the positive impact our business will have on the local community."
The FBO is still undergoing design improvements, and there are plans to build new hangars to accommodate the increased demand. Nedbalek also says there are plans to open more FBO locations in the area.
