Flightstar Corporation, a full-service Maintenance, Repair, and Overhaul operation (MRO) based in Central Illinois, has announced the construction of a new aircraft storage hangar.
Designated as Hangar 11, this new facility will house managed aircraft and free up an existing storage hangar for maintenance operations.
The reallocation effectively doubles the space dedicated to aircraft maintenance operations to address current and future maintenance demands.
Upon completion, Hangar 11 will add 28,000 square feet of hangar capacity at Willard Airport (KCMI), bringing Flightstarβs total managed hangar area to over 142,000 square feet.
βWeβre thrilled to announce the expansion of our campus with the construction of this new aircraft storage hangar,β said William Giannetti, president at Flightstar. βThis addition allows us to streamline our existing infrastructure while continuing to provide exceptional services for our clients.β
Infrastructure development is underway, with hangar construction slated to follow immediately.
The project is anticipated to reach completion by the last quarter of 2024.
