Private lift solutions provider Jet Linx has cut the ribbon on its new flagship private base at Eppley Airfield in the company’s hometown of Omaha, Nebraska. The $17.5-million facility features two 30,000-sq-ft hangars with radiant heated floors, and 28-foot-high doors capable of sheltering the latest ultra-long-range business jets.
It includes an adjoining 6,600-sq-ft, two-level, glass-enclosed private terminal featuring an observation deck overlooking the ramp, lounge area, two conference rooms, private offices, pilot lounge, refreshment bar, and kitchen.
Jet Linx is the third-largest aircraft management provider in the U.S., and its new Omaha complex replaces the aging, much smaller facility that became the company’s first private terminal in 2004, prior to its nationwide expansion.
The company recently named former Cirrus Aircraft president and CEO Brent Wouters as its CEO, as it looks to expand its fleet and increase the number of its jet card subscribers.
