FBO operator Meridian has opened a new hangar complex at its Teterboro Airport (TEB) location in New Jersey. The new Hangar 12 replaces an aged building that was demolished two years ago. Doubling the size of the previous facility, it includes a 40,000-sq-ft heated hangar, which can accommodate the latest big business jets. An adjoining two-story support building provides a customer reception area and tenant offices on the first floor, while the upper level will be reserved for charter support, including maintenance, quality assurance, and in-flight services. The addition brings the FBO to 102,000 sq ft of aircraft storage and it will be used for maintenance, as well as for based and transient aircraft parking.

“The new Hangar 12 enhances Meridian’s footprint at TEB and gives us more space and flexibility for maintenance and allows us to hangar additional aircraft,” said company president Steve Chandoha. “As we continue to grow and as traffic increases in the busy Northeast Corridor, this expansion will help us continue to serve our customers and meet their needs.”
