StandardAero has laid plans for an 80,500-sq-ft hangar expansion at its Augusta Business Aviation MRO facility in Georgia. Working with the Augusta Regional Airport (KAGS), the Augusta Economic Development Authority, and the state of Georgia, StandardAero expects crews to complete construction in 2025.

“The new facility will add over 60% of new space to our existing footprint,” said Chris Bodine, v-p and general manager of StandardAero’s Augusta location. “The current facility was built in the 1970s when aircraft were a lot smaller. The new facility will allow us to support additional super-midsize to large-cabin aircraft for airframe and avionics while also significantly expanding our engine shop to further support many of those aircraft.”
