Barron Aviation

Post by IP076 »

Anyone know any intel on Barron Aviation in Hannibal, MO?

They have a 170 listed for training on their website. I called the office number, seems to have been disconnected. I called the cell number they list for text/call, mailbox hasn't been set up. Texted it, no answer.

Anyone know if they're still in business?

In digging around the internet, I found a listing on Facebook that says permanently closed. If anyone knows otherwise, please post.

Thanks!

They sold that 170 several years ago.

The last I heard, they bought 6 or 8 of the old Chalk's Airlines Albatrosses. Looks like they are off on a new adventure.
