Stellar Aviation, one of two FBOs at Reno-Tahoe International Airport (KRNO), has broken ground on a 35,000-sq-ft hangar and office complex. Slated for completion in July 2027, it will offer 30,000 sq ft of aircraft shelter and 5,000 sq ft of office and shop space, as well as covered vehicle parking for tenants and crew.
The $9 million project is Stellar’s latest investment in a northern Nevada network that now spans two airports, three terminals at KRNO, and more than a quarter-million square feet of hangar space. It joins an identical sister hangar next to Stellar’s recently completed FBO executive terminal.
Stellar’s development is part of a building boom at KRNO. The Reno-Tahoe Airport Authority has more than $1 billion in infrastructure improvements under construction.
“The airport authority is making a major investment in commercial and cargo infrastructure, and Stellar is committed to matching that on the general aviation side,” said Stellar COO Brad Kost. “This hangar is about making sure our FBO facilities keep pace with demand and deliver an exceptional experience to every guest and business at Reno-Tahoe.”
Next year, Stellar will expand further, with construction starting on a $50 million, 10-acre general aviation development just south of its existing facility that will add another 100,000 sq ft of hangar space.
