The perfect landing for your "one-stop"

mountain adventure!

Whitewater Aviation Corporation

About the area:

 

A two hour drive north of Atlanta lies the Tennessee Overhill Country.

This mystical, mysterious place is older than the Cherokee Nation and dappled with the magic of music, mountains and moonshine.

 

Distinctively different, the moon shines over some of the United States best white water rivers, crystalline lakes, deeply wooded forests and some of the warmest, most colorful Americans still breathing.

 

So, what’s your pleasure? Whitewater rafting? Biking? Camping?  Hiking?  Fishing? Hunting?  Horse back riding? Train tours in the mountains?

About the owner:

 

Hans van Ovost has over 30 years fixed base operation experience.  He started at Fort Pierce, Florida municipal airport when it was just another non-towered airport without facilities.  Through Hans' efforts, it has become St. Lucie County International Airport (FPR) with paint, upholstery, avionics, and maintenance shops.  It is now a major business and transportation hub which has brought new businesses to the local area and increased the revenue of St. Lucie county.

 

 

Bret Smith supports 1A3 as the AOPA Airport Support Network (ASN) representative.

BREAKING NEWS:

We are now encouraging homebuilders to assemble their kits here! We have experienced A&P’s available, weight and balance scales and a mechanical room for everything you need to build your own experimental or LSA! You can have your kit delivered here, build and fly it all in one location! With fuel prices like they are and LSA's getting 5GPH or better, it's the way a lot of folks can still afford to fly!

For example, the RV 12 is a LSA meaning no FAA physical is required, just a valid driver’s license. The RV 12 complete kit sells for about $64k. Everything but fluids and paint!

Please let us know how we can help you get started! 


Due to the increased fuel cost, our self service 100ll is now $5.78. Whitewater Aviation is pleased to offer a special 50 cents per gallon discount to Shell Aviation credit card customers at the time of purchase!
