ground being prepared for new Desert Jet ramp
Work has commenced on the new ramp at Desert Jet's facility at Jacqueline Cochran Regional Airport in Palm Springs, California. It will serve as a springboard for the construction of a pair of 28,000 sq ft hangars.

Desert Jet, which operates the Desert Jet Center FBO and a Part 145 maintenance facility at Jacqueline Cochran Regional Airport (KTRM) near Palm Springs, California, has broken ground on a major facility expansion.

The first phase of the $24 million project includes 3.5 acres of ramp and is expected to be completed by year-end. It will more than double the complex’s apron and pave the way for construction of two new 28,000-sq-ft climate-controlled hangars next year. Once finished, these additions will bring the company to nearly 80,000 sq ft of aircraft shelter and maintenance space on the field.
