Choice Aviation Now Open for Refueling and Fixed and Rotor Wing Maintenance
/Choice Aviation’s much-anticipated fuel and maintenance facility is in full operation at Yellowstone Regional Airport (COD), providing fuel and maintenance services via its staff of certified, experienced, and well trained linemen and mechanics. Extensive maintenance capabilities, new fuel storage facilities, Avfuel-brand aviation fuels, a newly renovated customer terminal and onsite flight training make Choice one of the most well-equipped FBOs in the region. Choice also offers Avfuel’s popular pilot refueling incentive program, AVTRIP, as well as Avfuel’s Contract Fuel purchasing program for jet fuel savings.
Founded at the end of WWII by Glenn Nielson, who also founded Husky Aviation, Choice Aviation represents the third Nielson generation involved in the FBO business in Cody, Wyo., making it one of the oldest family-owned Avfuel-branded dealers. Today, Cody is run by Jay Nielson, President, and his father, Jim Nielson.
Choice Aviation is within minutes of the place that Teddy Roosevelt once described as “the most scenic 52 miles in America.” Less than an hour from Yellowstone National Park, this full-service FBO supplies pilots and passengers with everything they need to either kick back and relax or take care of business. Choice boasts brand new facilities equipped with WSI weather, satellite television, a library, relaxation rooms and lounges, free courtesy car, and some of the lowest fuel prices in the region. Pilots and passengers get an extra bonus when they stop at Choice: discounted golf at one of Wyoming’s top golf courses, Olive Glen (named after first generation owner, Glenn Nielson, and his wife Olive).
