Sheltair Aviation has completed a significant apron expansion at its Savannah/Hilton Head International Airport (SAV) location.
The newly constructed apron adds approximately 3.4 acres of aircraft parking and operational space to Sheltair’s existing 8.4-acre leasehold at SAV.
This increase in aircraft parking capacity allows Sheltair to better accommodate transient and based aircraft, providing more safety, flexibility, and efficiency for general aviation customers.
“The completion of our FBO ramp expansion marks a significant milestone in our ongoing commitment to growth, efficiency, and excellence in safety and service,” said Leigh Kendziorski, general manager at Sheltair SAV.
“This apron expansion not only enhances our operational capabilities but also strengthens our ability to better serve our partners, clients, and the aviation community at large. As the general aviation fleet continues to grow in size, this expansion allows us to comfortably accommodate larger aircraft and meet the evolving needs of the industry.”
In addition to the expanded aircraft parking, the project included the installation of a drainage system beneath and around the new apron area and also prepared additional land for the future development of a 45,000 SF hangar with attached office space.
