Signature Flight Support is acquiring Jet Systems, a rival FBO at Westchester County Airport, White Plains, N.Y., for $38.5 million, reducing the number of service outfits at the busy New York metropolitan airport to four. However, the move could signal the start of further consolidations at HPN. There's been speculation among airport tenants about such developments, fueled in part by a proposal before the County Board of Legislators to assign the lease for Panorama Flight Service, an independent FBO, to Landmark Aviation, which, like Signature, already has a base at HPN.
