This business caters to the jet set – Edwards Jet Center of Montana

If you’ve been to 50 airports in your life, you’ve probably taxied past 50 fixed-base operations on your way to and from the passenger terminals of those airports.
It’s a good bet that you never once took special notice of any of them.

Edwards Jet Center of Montana http://www.edwardsjetcenter.com/ — an FBO — at Glacier Park International Airport is a service center that provides support to general aviation aircraft and airlines flying into and out of the airport. It is a 24/7 operation that employs 26 people.

Cliff Edwards, owner of the center, is an attorney and rancher by trade. Four years ago, he bought the FBO at Glacier Park International Airport in addition to the one at Logan International Airport in Billings.

Before the purchase, the two operations had been competitors. Today they share personnel, equipment and services.

"I tell my employees it’s kind of like a ranching operation," Edwards said. "We’re essentially two ranches who’re running the same herd of cattle."
