Expanded Operations at an International Airport
Case Studies
Charter Operator
Challenge: Develop a hangar/office/shop complex to accommodate management of a large corporate jet as well as several smaller charter jets. Several sites were available on the airport but lacked the security and access needed by our client.
Solution: VJS Lincoln, Inc. negotiated a land lease and installation of infrastructure by the airport authority to open up a new area of land on the airport. The work done in cooperation with the charter operator opened other development opportunities to the airport and provided our client an excellent site to establish their charter operation.
Fixed Base Operator (FBO)
Challenge: A large FBO chain wanted to expand operations at an international airport, but land availability was a problem. The FBO had many tenants that needed additional shop and hangar space, but land was at a premium on their leasehold.
Solution: The FBO was using an old 1940’s era hangar for aircraft storage, but the building was in poor repair. VJS Lincoln, Inc. demolished the old hangar and built a new, modern hangar/office complex on the same site. As part of this project, a Ground Service Equipment building and additional shop space was constructed. These new facilities relieved congestion and freed up more hangar floor space in two existing hangars at the facility. Additional apron space was also developed to improve aircraft circulation and parking.
Corporate Flight Department
Challenge: An upstart corporate flight department needed a hangar/office/shop facility built. The company had neither a site nor a facility size determined. In addition, the company needed a fueling system built for their operations.
Solution: VJS Lincoln, Inc. negotiated a thirty year land lease with the airport in question and worked out an attractive fueling program for the flight department with the FBO on the field. The fueling program secured fuel at a competitive rate and saved the flight department the cost and liability of constructing and maintaining their own fuel system. To determine the proper facility size, VJS Lincoln, Inc. interviewed the flight department on their plans for future aircraft. Once a potential fleet was determined, the design criteria suggested a 15,000 square foot hangar bay was required. The facility was constructed in eight (8) months and has been serving the flight department for well over 10 years.
Experience
Safety
The safety of our employees, clients, and the general public is our first and foremost concern. It is an investment, not an expense.
Our safety program begins with an identification of needs and requirements before construction begins, and it continues through the entire project. The VJS Lincoln, Inc. team implements thorough procedures to protect employees and users of the airport on the construction site.
VJS Lincoln, Inc. utilizes a safety director who visits jobsites regularly and oversees our entire safety program. All project superintendents are trained extensively in safety, and each week they hold safety-related toolbox talks with all job foremen and construction crews. We also provide continual safety standards training to our employees.
