The Holland-SheltAir Story

The core values, management expertise, and services provided by SheltAir Aviation Services go back to the mid-1960's when Gerald M. Holland, Owner and President of SheltAir Aviation Services, started Holland Builders, Inc., a general aviation development and contracting company.

Later, in the 1970's, our properties leasing division was born out of the Ft. Lauderdale Executive Airport; it wasn't until 1988 that two Fixed Base Operations (FBOs) were built at the Ft. Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport and the Daytona Beach International Airport, calling themselves 'Jet Center'.

Operating as both FBOs and commercial ground handling/fueling companies, our network of two Jet Centers quickly expanded and in June of 2004, we officially changed our name and branding to 'SheltAir Aviation Services'.

Over the next several years, SheltAir continued to expand, adding facilities and services across the eastern United States.

With Holland Builders Inc., SheltAir Aviation Facilities, and SheltAir Aviation Services being under the umbrella of the Holland-SheltAir Aviation Group, we are able to incorporate the successful combination of skills related to the development, management, and operation of properties in commercial and general aviation.

Above all, we take pride in our talented, conscientious people who make SheltAir’s commitment to excellence part of their work ethic. It is their extensive training and years of experience that set SheltAir above all others in the aviation services industry.
