June 26, 2008 - Tri-State Aero adds to it's Charter Fleet (Evansville, IN) Tri-State Aero announced at Thursday's Chamber of Commerce Freedom Festival kick-off breakfast, held in a hangar at Tri-State Aero, the addition of a Cirrus SR22 G2 to their charter fleet. "The SR22 provides a cost effective way of getting up to 3 passengers to destinations too far, or time prohibited, to drive" said Bo Ballard, VP of Operations at Tri-State Aero. "It will fill a important nitch where speed and convenience is required, but a large aircraft is not", Ballard added, "we've had many requests to fill this nitch". The Cirrus is an ultra-modern aircraft which is currently the best selling in its class. This is due, in a large part, to its CAPS parachute system which provides a additional level of safety.

Tri-State Aero will be required to submit regular updates to ARG/U.S. every 90 days in order to keep the rating current. Information on Tri-State Aero's rating and safety history will be made available to industry suscribers of ARG/U.S., by way of the Charter Evaluation and Qualification (CHEQ) report, which is available on the ARG/U.S. website. |
