Avex Starts $5 Million Remodel at Camarillo Airport

Avex, a division of The Blackhawk Group, is investing $5 million to remodel and modernize its Performance Center at Camarillo Airport (KCMA) in Southern California. The project will expand and upgrade customer and pilot spaces and build on Daher TBM aircraft support.

The remodel will include a refreshed customer lounge, private workspaces, upgraded pilot lounge with ramp access, and new conference and flight-planning rooms. A design center will allow owners to visualize custom upgrades and avionics installations, while a community hub will serve as a meeting place.

“This investment represents our commitment to the future of the Avex Performance Center in Camarillo—modern, elevated, and designed entirely around the customer experience,” said Blackhawk Group CEO Chad Cundiff. “Our team is dedicated to providing an environment that mirrors the excellence, innovation, and performance of the TBM aircraft itself. This builds on other investments in the aircraft and its support, including our recent certification of the XP66D Engine+ upgrade for the TBM 700 series.”

According to the company, the project signals a long-term commitment to supporting TBM owners, operators, and pilots. “We are investing for the long haul, ensuring the TBM community always has a world-class home base in Southern California,” Cundiff said.
