local airport charter handler.

A statement released by the Bermuda Stock Exchange announced the airport service company's purchase of Mid Atlantic Aviation Ltd., described as a local fixed base operator at Bermuda International Airport.

No price was dislcosed and it is not known who the current owners of the company are.

BAS chairman Neville Conyers said talks for the "small but successful company'' had been going on for some time and would bring efficiencies to Mid Atlantic's clients, particularly with BAS' new executive jet facility.
