MESA, Arizona — Avflight has added its 23rd FBO to its network by acquiring the FBO facilities from Falcon Executive Aviation at Falcon Field Airport (KFFZ).
A full-service FBO, Avflight Mesa offers 24-hour fueling services (including jet fuel and avgas), oxygen service, aircraft parking, courtesy transportation, rental cars, computerized weather, and concierge services.
While Falcon Executive Aviation will retain its maintenance, charter and flight school businesses at KFFZ, Avflight will establish its new FBO business out of the acquired facilities, including a building with 15,000 square feet of hangar and office space, an additional facility with 2,000 square feet of office space, an additional 12,000 square foot hangar built in 2018, and brand new fuel storage tanks installed in October 2020.
With an eye toward expansion, Avflight ultimately plans to move its operation to a new FBO facility across the field in May 2021. The development, already under construction, includes a 5,000 square foot office and 11,000 square foot hangar with the potential for a total of 60,000 square feet of hangar space to accommodate a growing customer base at the Mesa airport, according to company officials.
