Yingling Aviation at Wichita’s Mid-Continent Airport now offers a self-service refueling station for users of 100LL.
Available 24 hours a d
ay, seven days a week, the fuel pump will provide the 100LL for piston-engine aircraft at rates that are lower than full-service charges, according to FBO officials.
Lynn Nichols, president of Yingling Aviation in Wichita, grew up around pilots, earning his license at an early age.
When he acquired the long-time Cessna affiliate at Mid-Continent Airport in 2000, he knew that the small gift shop wasn’t nearly adequate to meet the needs of most fliers, offering just a few charts, sunglasses and souvenirs. So, in 2001, he decided that part of the major renovation he was undertaking at Yingling would include a transformation of the gift shop into a world-class pilot’s store.
