HAECO Operations Fire Fighting Services

==About==
HAECO provides firefighting services to its MRO facilities at Lake City Gateway Airport, as well as providing those services to the entire airfield. Control Tower operations at Lake City Gateway are also performed by HAECO.
==History==
Lake City Gateway was built by the Lake City Flying Club in the 1930s, then was acquired by the US Navy in 1942 and renamed Naval Air Station (NAS) Lake City. Military operations ended in 1946 and NAS Lake City was decommissioned and the property transferred to Lake City and renamed the Lake City Municipal Airport. In 2011 the facility was again renamed, this time the Lake City Gateway Airport.
One of the first major tenants was Aero Corporation, which was acquired by TIMCO, which in turn was acquired by HAECO.
