Million Air’s newest franchise FBO at San Bernardino International Airport in Southern California held a grand opening ceremony on August 6. The former Norton AFB closed in 1994, and growing industrial use of local land by companies such as Stater Brothers Markets, Mattel, Kohl’s and Pep Boys Auto stimulated the local airport authority’s desire to improve the airport infrastructure. The airport’s 10,001-foot runway was completely rebuilt in 2008.
Planning for the new Million Air facility began three years ago. “In those days, tumbleweeds blew across the ramp,” said Million Air SBD CEO Scot Spencer. The airport used to store trucks on the property to generate revenue, but Spencer and officials from the San Bernardino International Airport Authority saw the opportunity offered by the airport. The authority sought proposals for the new FBO and received responses from six FBO companies and selected Million Air.
