Aviation real estate developer Blackbird Partners has announced a hangar development project at Missouri’s Spirit of St. Louis Airport (KSUS). Unlike other hangar complexes sprouting up across the U.S., this one will include eight hangars to be sold, rather than leased (within the constraints of an airport 45-year ground lease).

To be known as “The Nest at SUS,” the nearly 13-acre facility located off Taxiway Delta will feature four concrete hangar structures (“wings”). Each will contain a 6,705-sq-ft private hangar capable of sheltering up to a super-midsize jet, and a 14,909-sq-ft single-owner hangar that can accommodate an ultra-long-range jet or multiple smaller aircraft.
