Jet Aviation has completed construction of another hangar at its FBO at Montana’s Bozeman-Yellowstone International Airport (KBZN). This latest addition expands the facility—which Jet Aviation acquired in 2020—to more than 300,000 sq ft of hangar space, following a remodel of the FBO terminal and the purchase of new fuel trucks and ground equipment.
The 40,000-sq-ft structure with a 30-foot-high door height is capable of sheltering business jets up to Gulfstream’s soon-to-be-certified G700. It replaces a 10,000-sq-ft hangar that was originally attached to the FBO terminal and features a heated ramp outside its doors along with heated walkways to ensure arrivals and departures in inclement winter weather.
“As the gateway to Yellowstone National Park, the Yellowstone Club, and the Big Sky resort area, Bozeman is Montana’s busiest airport and a key destination for many of our customers,” said Jet Aviation v-p of Americas FBO operations Richard Layson.
“We are seeing high demand for hangar space, particularly for newer and larger business jets,” added David Best, the General Dynamics subsidiary’s senior v-p of regional operations and general manager for the Americas. “As we continue to grow and invest in our network, we are focused on providing our customers with the services and facilities they need, where they need them.”
