Vermont’s Burlington International Airport has spent millions over the last several years developing not only better facilities for air passengers, but general aviation, laying the groundwork for a strong economy that could help the state out of the recession and set the stage for long-term growth, according to a story at WCAX.com.
The story notes that over the last 15 years, the airport has expanded the south end, where facilities for private aircraft has seen strong growth. Heritage Aviation has spent millions of private investment dollars to maintain and service aircraft — even including renewable energy, in the form of wind and solar arrays, a first for any general aviation facility in the country.
