Wisconsin’s Chippewa Valley Regional Airport (KEAU) is preparing for the completion of a 22,500-sq-ft hangar. Construction on the facility, which will be owned by the airport and managed by Hawthorne Global Aviation Services, the lone FBO on the field, began in September.

Once the hangar opens by mid-year, Hawthorne will have 47,000 sq ft of aircraft shelter and will be able to accommodate ultra-long-range business jets, something it could not do previously in its existing 24,500-sq-ft hangar which is limited to super-midsize jets due to wingspan restrictions.
