About Gregg Flying Service

Gregg Flying Service is a family owned aviation business at Animas Airpark in Durango, Colorado. The airport code is 00C. The site says the company has 76 years of aviation service and flight instruction in the Durango area. Its services include aircraft maintenance, inspections and flight instruction.

The business began with James Floyd Gregg Sr., known as Pappy. After World War II he trained pilots in Grand Junction, Colorado. He later started Gregg Flying Service in Durango. The first airfield was on Reservoir Hill, where Fort Lewis College is now. The airstrip moved to its current place, about 17 miles out of town, in 1952.

Jim Gregg joined the business in 1953, training pilots and taking charter flights. His son Delvin joined in 1975 as a mechanic and budding pilot. The airstrip was built in 1976 and Animas Airpark opened. Delvin began charter flying and aircraft maintenance. He took over the business fully in 1990 when Jim retired.

The maintenance group includes mechanics who inspect, repair and rebuild aircraft for any problem found or reported. The site says they keep the fleet and customers safe and airworthy.

The flight training team is described as dedicated, inspiring instructors. The site says the goal is to get students to a pilot's license in the shortest time possible. The site lists pages for its fleet, its team and its events.
