Flightstar’s new Hangar 11 can handle the latest big bizjets. The more than $7 million investment brings the company to 137,000 sq ft of hangar space at the University of Illinois-Willard Airport.

Flightstar, a full-service MRO as well as the lone FBO at the University of Illinois-Willard Airport (KCMI) in Champaign for nearly half a century, has completed a new 27,000-sq-ft hangar.

Known as Hangar 11, the $7 million-plus structure features a 30-foot door height and can accommodate the latest ultra-long-range business jets. It brings the facility’s total hangar area to 137,000 sq ft and doubles Flightstar’s dedicated space for maintenance and avionics operations, as well as supporting its growth in Bombardier Learjet and Challenger 300-series work.
