Jet Aviation, which operates 30 FBOs worldwide, is making improvements at several locations, the company announced this week at NBAA-BACE 2022. The General Dynamics subsidiary has broken ground on a new 40,000-sq-ft hangar at its Bozeman, Montana facility, which when completed in the third quarter of 2023 will be able to accommodate ultra-long-range cabin business jets.

At Houston William P. Hobby Airport, the company has embarked on a project that will rebuild a 30,000-sq-ft hangar, renovate 6,000 sq ft of the FBO terminal’s lobby, and upgrade 4,500 sq ft of office space. This work is expected to continue into the first quarter of next year.

And in Scottsdale, Arizona, Jet Aviation is constructing an 18,000-sq-ft hangar, which, when completed in the middle of 2023, will bring the location to 48,000 sq ft of total aircraft storage space. The facility at Scottsdale Airport opened in 2020 and last year was the winner of AIN’s Top Flight Award for best new FBO. Combined, the three improvements represent approximately $25 million in investment by Jet Aviation (Booth 1678).

“We want to be where our customers are, and it’s evident that Scottsdale, Bozeman, and Houston are important and strategic locations on our map,” said David Best, the company’s senior v-p of regional operations and its Americas general manager.
