Banyan Air Service Celebrates Four-decade Anniversary

The massive FBO and MRO facility in Southern Florida is famous from the U.S. all the way down to South America.

Banyan Air Service today occupies 100 acres at Fort Lauderdale Executive Airport. In addition to more than one-million sq ft of hangar space, it offers a Part 145 repair station with two shifts a day, an avionics shop, runway cafe, a spacious terminal and one of the world's largest pilot shops.
