Sheltair has broken ground on another hangar at its Tampa International Airport (KTPA) FBO in Florida. Slated for completion by the end of 2025, the hangar is specifically designed to accommodate single-aisle bizliners such as the Boeing BBJ and Airbus ACJ320.
Last year, the company completed a 77,000-sq-ft expansion to the facility, bringing it to 283,884 sq ft of hangar space. The latest $15 million Hangar 9 project will add 50,880 sq of hangar space and 8,344 sq ft of office and shop space, along with 50,000 sq ft of ramp area.
“At Sheltair, we constantly strive to enhance our facilities and services to better serve our customers,” said company president and CEO Lisa Holland. “This new hangar at KTPA represents our ongoing commitment to excellence and our confidence in the growth of Tampa’s aviation sector.”
Sheltair acquired the Tampa facility in 2016. It has consistently ranked in the top tier of worldwide FBOs in the annual AIN FBO Survey.
