The city of Killeen, Texas, has opened a new municipal-run FBO at Skylark Field Airport (KILE). Built over the course of a year at a cost of $4.1 million, the 3,000 sq ft facility includes a spacious reception area, passenger and pilot lounges, eight-seat conference room, and a kitchen with complementary refreshments. It is also equipped with solar panels and electric vehicle charging stations. The building replaces the former 1960s-vintage, 900-sq-ft facility, which now will be leased to a local skydiving company.

KILE features a 5,495-foot runway and offers 24/7 self-service jet-A and avgas, in addition to the FBO’s full line services. It has hangar space capable of storing aircraft up to a turboprop twin.
