Avflight has broken ground on a new expansion to its FBO at the Detroit-area Willow Run Airport (YIP). The company had leased space in a massive WWII-vintage hangar, which the airport has decided to close. As a result, Avflight’s new complex will include a pair of 15,000-sq-ft heated hangars that will be able to accommodate the latest big business jets, more than 7,000 sq ft of office space, and a 14-space indoor parking garage.

While the existing facility is on the southern side of the airport, the company intends to occupy a second location in an aviation infrastructure development currently under construction on the northern side. It is expected to open by mid-2021.
Avflight has expanded its FBO chain with the addition of Falcon Executive Aviation, the lone full-service provider at Mesa, Arizona’s Falcon Field Airport.
While Falcon Executive Aviation will retain its maintenance, charter, and flight school operations, Avflight will take over the facility, which includes the 2,000-sq-ft terminal, a 15,000-sq-ft hangar and office building, a recently-built 12,000-sq-ft hangar, and a fuel farm that just completed a new storage tank replacement project. The location, branded by sister company Avfuel, offers 24-hour fueling, as well as Avtrip rewards.
