As a result of airport master plan developments at Iowa’s Des Moines International Airport, long-time aircraft sales, parts, and maintenance provider Des Moines Flying Service last week relocated to a new facility at the field. According to the company, the move was necessitated by the airport’s wish to build a new terminal on the north side of the field. Relocation planning began in 2018, while construction of the $8.7 million, 26,100-sq-ft facility started early last year.
