About our company
About the President:
Hans van Ovost has over 30 years of fixed base operation experience and is a seasoned Part 135 operator.
He started at Fort Pierce, Florida municipal airport when it was just another non-towered airport without facilities.
Through Hans' efforts, it has become Treasure Coast International Airport (FPR) with paint, upholstery, avionics, and maintenance shops.
It is now a major business and transportation hub which has brought new businesses to the local area and increased the revenue of St. Lucie County.
His hopes are to inspire the same for Polk County!
Whitewater Aviation was created to transform Martin Campbell Field from a dormant airport, rich with history, into a viable modern retreat and air transportation hub here in Polk County, TN. We now have self-service aviation fuel and two new rows of “T-hangars” with more than 20 aircraft on the field. For safety, we have installed PAPI approach lighting and updated the runway lights to pilot control. We strive to keep the lowest price on fuel, hangar rentals and maintenance. By doing so, we’ve been successfully bringing newcomers into Polk County since 2009.
Our goal is to attract new businesses looking to find their futures in this fertile area. Businesses and corporations to create new jobs and bringing in new families.
Feel free to come in and visit--you will find your new best friends here!
About the area:
A two hour drive north of Atlanta lies the Tennessee Overhill Country.
This mystical, mysterious place is older than the Cherokee.
Distinctively different, the moon shines over some of the United States best white water rivers, crystalline lakes, deeply wooded forests and some of the warmest, most colorful Americans still breathing.
Many folks arrive at the airport and say, "This is the best kept secret!" More families are finding homes and businesses here. Why not have your business here with family year around?
So, what's your pleasure? Whitewater rafting? Zip Line? Biking? Camping? Hiking? Fishing? Hunting? Horse back riding? Train tours in the mountains?
