Wings Assurance, which operated as Wings Agency of Hainesport, N.J., has been acquired by Grohs Schrager Hampson Aviation Insurance, a division of the Schrager Hampson Aviation Insurance Group (SHAIG).
Along with the acquisition of Wings Agency, SHAIG added an additional location in Lumberton, N.J., at the South Jersey Regional Airport (KVAY).
Wings Agency was founded by Hobart “Bud” Montee over half a century ago. Bud’s daughter, Jenny Heins, took over the firm and served as its president until her passing on Dec. 6, 2022. Heins selected SHAIG to carry on her family’s legacy in the aviation insurance brokerage business, according to SHAIG officials.
SHAIG, a family-owned firm with locations in New Hampshire, Massachusetts, and Connecticut, is the largest independent aviation insurance brokerage business owned and operated in New England, according to company officials.
