PTK is Waterford, Pontiac sounds depressing. But they used to have a FBO over at YIP also.

I never knew they were at YIP. PentaStar used to be part of Daimler wasn't it?(Hence the pentastar) They used to fly an Airbus from PTK to Germany and back. I could easily be way off here, but I know that there was the Airbus flights because I saw it myself, can't remember the callsign they used.

Lol, are we spliting up PTK like YIP then? Half the airport is Bellevillle and the other half is Ypsi. I don't think the name Pontiac sounds depressing.

They also have an fbo at VNY and manage a couple of aircraft there as well. I know they have a CL601 in VNY.

The last time I was at PTK in 2007 the two line service people where comparing gunshot wounds. The funny thing was one of them was a girl(I think). Everyone has different experiences but mine was pretty depressing at PTK.
