    Existing Columbus Worthington Air management and staff will remain in place.

    “We partnered with Clint Schreck, general manager of Columbus Worthington Air, because of his experience and commitment to his employees and customers. We’re pleased to incorporate his team into our network of outstanding businesses,” says Chris Evans, division vice president.
