United States and Canada
and within its aircraft sales, charter and management business. The company also operates Associated Air Center, a transport completion center.

Landmark Aviation is derived from a company called "Garrett/Piedmont Hawthorne/Associated" which operated for about a year before being rebranded in October 2005. Garrett/Piedmont Hawthorne/Associated was in turn created from the merger of three companies (

Carlyle Group
.

In 2007, Landmark was merged with two other entities, and took the name

StandardAero from one of those.[1] Like Landmark, StandardAero is owned by Dubai Aerospace Enterprise
.

In March, 2008, an acquisition of the company was completed by Encore FBO, GTCR Golder Rauner and Platform Partners from Dubai Aerospace.[2]

In September 2012, the company was acquired by The Carlyle Group, with Landmark now having 51 locations.[3]

In December 2012, the company acquired First Aviation at Teterboro Airport (TEB).[4]

In April 2014, Landmark purchased RSS Jet Centre, adding 3 FBOs in the United Kingdom [5] and Ross Aviation, a network of 20 FBOs in the Continental United States and Hawaii,[6] expanding its total holdings to 60 locations in the US and 76 total worldwide. The Ross Aviation purchase closed in August of the same year.[7]

In February 2015, Landmark added 2 new FBO locations at Key West International Airport, FL (EYW)[8] and at Houston Ellington Airport (Texas), TX (EFD).[9]

In May 2015, Landmark purchased the assets of Era FBO and began operating the former Million Air FBO at

TWC Aviation.[11]

In February 2016,

BBA Aviation (competitor Signature Flight Support's parent company) acquired Landmark Aviation's 195 global locations including FBOs, MROs and its charter/management division for $2.065 billion. [12]
The terms of the acquisition required the divestment of six co-located FBO locations.

In July 2016, Ross Aviation (the same Ross Aviation that sold their locations to Landmark 2 years prior) purchased the 6 divested FBO locations from BBA Aviation for an undisclosed amount. [13]
