FBO chain Aero Centers has received permission to establish what will be the second FBO at Washington’s Spokane International Airport (KGEG). The $6 million facility will be completed by the first half of 2023, it said.

Aero Centers last week secured a 25-year lease for 1.86 acres on which it will establish a 5,200-sq-ft terminal with an adjoining 15,000-sq-ft hangar capable of sheltering aircraft up to the size of a Bombardier Global 7500. A separate 10,000-sq-ft hangar will be reserved for the company’s maintenance activities. As part of the deal, Aero Centers will also lease nearly two acres of ramp space.
