This new project is an extension of the partnership work of RCU and Egis, which commenced last November with the opening of a new airport hangar for private aircraft.
The 3,000m² hangar is built to renewable energy standards, outfitted with ground flight and engineering teams, and is capable of offering long-term parking services.
The project scope is divided into two sections; expanding the current hangar to accommodate the necessary storage, maintenance and operations area, and building a new purpose-built FBO terminal facility.
Egis will be responsible for the many aspects of the project including detailed design, airport operation support services and development.
