West Star Anchors Down in Chattanooga
Shortly after opening a new expansion, the CHA site is seeing a backlog of work.
The original hangar at Chattanooga was designed to accommodate primarily small and midsize aircraft, but to address the popularity of larger models, the company constructed the new 40,000-sq-ft hangar to accommodate the largest and longest range jets.

Within months of moving into its expansive addition at its facility Chattanooga Airport in Tennessee (CHA), West Star Aviation already has had a full hangar, backlog of work, new authorizations, and long-range plans for even more growth.

West Star opened that expansion late last fall, adding a newly built hangar, paint facilities, and initial backshop and administrative space spanning more than 110,000 sq ft, bringing its total footprint at CHA to more than 175,000 sq ft.
