The Business Aviation Group announced is seeking proposals from "qualified" FBO candidates to bid on a 15.5-acre business aviation services development project at Addison Airport in north Dallas. BA Group already has a lease agreement for the acreage at the southeast quadrant of the airport.
According to BA Group, “Addison Jet Center” will be built in two phases and, when complete, will have 120,000 sq ft of hangar, office and shop space, 6.9 acres of ramp space and a 22,000-sq-ft FBO terminal. This would be the third FBO at the airport, competing with Atlantic Aviation and Million Air.
Iver Retrum, co-founder and partner of BA Group, said this will be the largest development project ever undertaken at Addison. “It comes at a time when hangar space [at Addison] is at capacity and the nearby northern corridor of the Dallas Metroplex is exploding with growth,” he noted.
The first phase will span 11 acres and will likely include two 40,000-sq-ft corporate aircraft hangars; a two-story FBO terminal, with a rooftop observation deck and office suites; and a 4.6-acre ramp. The company also envisions indoor secured auto parking with lifts and valet and auto spa services. Phase two would add a 40,000-sq-ft hangar and 4,800 sq ft of office and shop space, while the ramp area would be expanded by 2.3 acres.
