One More Compelling Reason NOT to Land in Massachusetts!

Infinity Aviation Group, a Part 135 Charter, Management and Maintenance Operator located in Nashua, New Hampshire with a charter sales office in White Plains, New York, has acquired the assets of Keyson Airways and Keyson Enterprises, a full-service FBO located at Nashua Airport. The acquisition provides Infinity with an additional 40,000 square feet of office and hangar space on field, the addition of several A & P, IA and Avionics maintenance personnel, as well as multiple authorized service center agreements. FAA certification of Infinity as a Part 145 Repair Station is currently in its final stages.

“The acquisition is a wonderful fit for us,” says Kenneth Silverman, CEO. “The new facility provides us with additional sorely needed hangar space for our growing fleet of jets, as well as the manpower to function with a greater economy of scale in all aspects of our combined operation for both piston and jet aircraft.”

Currently, the Airport Authority has petitioned for customs clearance, which will make Nashua Airport a convenient East Coast portal for international flights. In addition, the airport runway, currently at 5500 feet, will be undergoing an extension of in a few years’ time of 1000 feet, making it attractive to larger aircraft.

By air, Nashua Airport is ideally situated ten miles Manchester Airport and twenty miles from Hanscom Field in Bedford, MA, and is easily accessible by car to the Massachusetts business belt on routes 128 and 495, via route 3, and is a 45-miute drive to downtown Boston. Nashua Airport can provide fuel, hangar space, maintenance and other flight services at a fraction of the cost of other locations. For Massachusetts aviators this is a real plus, given Massport’s recent preoccupation with raising rents, which will have a commensurate effect on service costs.

Fuel prices in Nashua as of this writing are $3.65 a gallon. In nearby Portsmouth, the price is $4.55; in Manchester, $5.18. Conventionally used Boston-area airports are currently running $1.00 higher per gallon or in some cases, $2.00
