      We look forward to serving our guests out of our new facility soon Drew! We do NOT plan to spend 6 mil at this time … at Alpha Air Center a part of our experience is knowing that you are not simply paying a huge facility fee with every stop … even with the new addition our pricing will remain competitive and our service will be unsurpassed. Come see us!
