Modern Aviation To Expand Its Dallas Metroplex FBO

Modern Aviation has broken ground on a major development project at its FBO at Fort Worth Meacham International Airport (KFTW). With a price tag upwards of $20 million, the project will include a pair of 39,200-sq-ft hangars—each with a 4,375-sq-ft attached office.

Slated for completion in the first quarter of 2027, they will bring the complex to more than 262,000 sq ft of aircraft storage. Both hangars will accommodate the latest ultra-long-range business jets while enhancing operational efficiency and customer service offerings on the field.

Modern acquired the former American Aero facility two years ago. This expansion represents a step forward in the company’s continued investment in the city and underscores its long-term commitment to KFTW.

“We are proud to break ground on this new hangar complex in Fort Worth, which reflects our ongoing commitment to investing in the communities and airports we serve,” said company president and CEO Mark Carmen. “This project strengthens our ability to meet growing demand at Meacham International Airport and further enhances the exceptional service and facilities our customers expect from Modern Aviation.”
