BLOOMINGTON, IL / September 12, 2014 / GENERAL AVIATION NEWS / Synergy Flight Center at Central Illinois Regional Airport at Bloomington-Normal (BMI), well-known for maintenance, has invested in improving the FBO facilities, hangars, and ramp space. Last March, the FBO gained approval to sell fuel at the airport, and has since joined the Avfuel Branded FBO Network to offer Avfuel Contract Fuel and AVTRIP Rewards.
