Jet Aviation
celebrated the opening of a new hangar and FBO
terminal at Hanscom Field in Boston/Bedford with a
welcome reception on June 8, 2017.
“With these new
facilities and added capabilities at Boston/Bedford,
Jet Aviation is truly taking a big step into the
future of premium service for our customers and the
community here,” said Jet Aviation President
Rob Smith.
“The new ‘state-of-the-art’ facilities are designed
and built to improve safety and efficiency, and are
also more protective of the environment. We are
working with the United States Green Building
Council to gain Leadership in Energy and
Environmental Design (LEED) certification.”
Smith noted that
the new 40,000 square-foot hangar is capable of
handling aircraft up to the Gulfstream G650 and the
Global 7000. The two-story FBO terminal has 13,000
square feet dedicated to customer service and
another 16,000 square feet of office and shop space.
The 92,000 square-foot ramp and apron have been
upgraded, while a new entrance roadway, parking, and
utilities connecting to the FBO have been installed.
The grand opening
featured a welcome reception attended by customers,
business and government leaders, airport executives,
project developers and members of the aviation
industry.
John Langevin,
vice president of Jet Aviation FBO Operations in
North America, said, “The expanded FBO at
Boston/Bedford is among many recent and upcoming
improvements to Jet Aviation’s Global FBO Network.
The new FBO at Washington Dulles International
Airport opened in April and a grand opening is
planned soon for the newly-branded Jet Aviation San
Juan FBO at Luis Muñoz Marin International Airport
in Puerto Rico.” |
