Wyoming Airport Completes Major FBO Renovation

Cowboy Aviation, the airport-owned FBO at Wyoming’s Laramie Regional Airport, completed an upgrade from its previous 1940s era 1,500-sq-ft structure to a newly built 4,000-sq-ft terminal this month. The $2.3 million project, which took 18 months, included ramp drainage and lighting, along with new fencing and gates around the Avfuel-branded FBO, a new parking lot where the former terminal building once stood, and landscaping.  The facility has 40,000 sq ft of hangar space and can accommodate aircraft up to a Citation X. The new building provides a passenger lounge/lobby, pilot lounge with full crew kitchen, a 15-seat A/V-equipped conference room, and a pair of snooze rooms. The 8,500-foot-long runway at an elevation of 7,200 feet msl adds to the location’s appeal as a quick-turn tech stop for cross-country flights.
