Rise Aviation opens new facility at KGYI

By General Aviation News Staff · September 28, 2022 ·

Rise Aviation, the FBO at North Texas Regional Airport (KGYI) in Sherman, Texas, has begun operating out of its new FBO terminal.

The multimillion-dollar facility, which is the first of three planned construction phases, is east of the airport’s 9,000-foot main runway (17L-35R) mid-field and adjacent to 25 acres of concrete ramp space, according to company officials.

The 10,720-square-foot terminal features a passenger lobby, 12-seat conference room, pilot lounge, pilot quiet room, flight planning area, and original art featuring local landmarks. The new FBO facility also offers eight office suites for lease to flight departments or other aviation-related businesses.

Rise Aviation operates four additional facilities at the airport, including 32,400-square-feet of office and shop space, as well as 67,000-square-feet of hangar space.

Rise Aviation, which changed its name from Lake Texoma Jet Center in early 2019, has provided FBO services at KGYI since 2007.
