Aviation services provider West Star Aviation has started construction on a new 48,380-sq-ft paint facility at its location at Tennessee’s Chattanooga Metropolitan Airport/Lovell Field (CHA). Large enough to accommodate aircraft up to an Embraer Lineage 1000, the facility will also feature a strip and preparation area. It is expected to be completed in September 2018.
