Houston, Texas (May 23, 2007) – UVair®, the fueling services business of Universal Weather and Aviation Inc., is pleased to announce the addition of a dedicated fuel specialist, Yeet Jones, who joins the existing international fuel sales team with her focus to include the fuel requests of Europe-based operators.
