Gama Aviation has celebrated a milestone in its development of a new FBO/MRO complex at Sharjah International Airport in the UAE. While the company has been providing aviation services there for more than a decade from a previously existing structure, its space was constrained. Its plans to construct a purpose-built facility had stalled, however, due to a variety of economic factors during the global pandemic and its aftermath.
The company just completed a new 36,000-sq-m (387,500-sq-ft) parking apron at its 80,000-sq-m (20-acre) leasehold on the eastern side of the airfield. In the third quarter, it expects to break ground on a climate-controlled 14,000-sq-m (151,000-sq-ft) hangar—one of the largest in the region, capable of sheltering bizliners—along with a new VIP terminal. The hangar will house the company’s MRO, as well as provide storage for based and transient aircraft.
