Scottsdale, Arizona-headquartered StandardAero plans to invest between about $12 million in leasehold improvements over 2.5 years at its MRO facility in Springfield, Illinois. The work includes a hangar door overhaul, interior door replacement, resurfacing of hangar floors, interior and exterior paint, new HVAC systems, flat roof replacements, paint facility upgrades, and parking area and road resurfacing.

StandardArea has already started the repair and overhaul process for the facility’s hangar doors, said Dave Pearman, v-p and general manager of the Springfield location. “And we’re proceeding with the other phased improvements. We are grateful to the Abraham Lincoln Capital Airport for their support and once all of the upgrades are completed, we’ll essentially have a like-new operation.”
