WACO Aircraft, New FBO, Extreme Fuel Discounts, WACO Kitchen... Experience It All!
WACO Aircraft is the home of the international manufacturing operations for the YMF-5 Super, a three-place radial engine powered classic biplane... now available as either a tailwheel land plane or amphibious seaplane.
WACO also crafts the highly regarded Great Lakes 2T-1A-2 -- the Lycoming powered two place taildragger that has started many a new aerobatic pilot on their way to learning the rudiments of REAL flying. Both aircraft are in serial production and will be seen in just a few days on the grounds of EAA AirVenture in display area #253 right along Celebration Way.
In eager anticipation of EAA Airventure 2021, WACO Aircraft Corporation is inviting all aviators to stop by their facility at KBTL in Battle Creek, Michigan.
WACO Aircraft has recently renovated and expanded upon their facility at the Battle Creek Executive Airport to now include a brand new FBO that offers open seating areas, coffee, private offices, pilot's lounge, a snooze room, a massive ramp space, and best of all, fuel discounts the week before and after AirVenture 2021!
In addition to the brand new FBO, WACO now offers a one-of-a-kind dining experience at WACO Kitchen. So not only can you fuel up your plane with insanely low rates, but you can also enjoy a first-class meal at one of the country's best airport restaurants. WACO Kitchen's team of internationally trained chefs offer a unique fusion of American/European inspired menu items made with locally sourced ingredients. It is truly an experience unlike anything else.
WACO Aircraft is the only company with the passion and expertise to build these flying works of art and they want everyone to have the opportunity to see this passion for themselves. The brand new FBO and WACO Kitchen offer a behind-the-scenes view of aircraft manufacturing. This is a fuel stop that will thrill you nearly as much as snap-rolling a Great Lakes.
So... on your way to Oshkosh, OR on the way home, come to Battle Creek, visit the FBO, spend a luxurious hour or two eating and drinking to your heart's content and see where two biplanes of historic lineage come to life.
