Lee Gilmer Memorial

Gainesville, GA USA (KGVL / GVL)

Established as “Mule Camp Springs” near the crossing of two Indian trails followed by settlers in the 1800s, the City of Gainesville has maintained and built upon its historical legacy as a regional transportation and trade center for almost two centuries.

Lee Gilmer Memorial airport was a dirt airstrip in 1941. By 1943, the US Navy leased the property from the City of Gainesville for the purpose of conducting training and developed the runways, taxiways, terminal building and hangars. In 1947, the much improved facility was returned to the City of Gainesville and began maturing as an economic and regional transportation resource.

Lanier Flight Center was established in 2002 with the vision of providing high-quality, professional aviation services to a wide spectrum of customers and furthering Gainesville’s historic position as a regional transportation hub. Flight training was our first endeavor and allowed us to establish a presence on the field and become involved in serving our community. Soon after, we were approved for part 135 operations and launched our charter operations with a beautiful Cessna 421. Presently, our business is growing to include self-serve fuel, an expanding charter fleet and more flight instruction than we ever expected.

Lanier Flight Center is Gainesville, GA’s only full-service aviation company. We are dedicated to providing high-quality services to a growing customer base and hold providing excellent customer service as our highest goal. We welcome your inquiry and the opportunity to serve your charter needs at any airport in the Atlanta/N. Georgia area.

If you thought First Class on an airline was nice, wait until you experience air travel on your own private aircraft! Experience all of the convenience of:

  • Arrivals and departures at the airport and time of your choice. The only schedules adhered to are determined by you!
  • Incredible time savings – by the time you drive to Hartsfield, park the car, check your luggage and get a boarding pass, clear security, board the airplane and taxi for takeoff…we could be deplaning at the destination airport and helping you with your bags.
  • Nothing says client or employee appreciation like, ’private plane’! Attract and retain key employees or valuable clients by treating them to the red carpet service of private aircraft travel…and write it off as a deductible business expense!
  • Enjoy unparalleled safety and security. Reduce risk by avoiding busy public airports and mass transportation. Do the president, heads of state, movie stars or other dignitaries expose themselves to the risk and idignity of travel in public airports? Of course not! Neither should you!

Our Cessna 421 is a fantastic aircraft for short range trips. The twin, 375hp engines are geared for smooth, quiet performance. The aircraft is pressurized and air conditioned for your comfort. Recent cabin upgrades include luxurious new leather interior upholstery and a DVD entertainment system.
