In support of Jet Aviation’s program to expand its business, its Midcoast Aviation subsidiary has launched construction of a new $10.5 million, 115,000 sq-ft-hangar at its St. Louis Downtown Airport facility. The new 770- by 135-foot structure will bring Midcoast’s hangar space on the airport to more than 500,000 sq ft in eight buildings on more than 27 acres. The latest hangar will allow the company to better meet the stringent turnaround times required by customers for their various work scopes.

The Missouri-based corporate jet aircraft maintenance, modification and completion provider is an authorized support center for Dassault Falcon and Raytheon, and is the only Bombardier authorized service facility for Global aircraft in the U.S. Last year Midcoast renovated its St. Louis Downtown Airport FBO to nearly quadruple its passenger and crew terminal.
