Jet Access has broken ground on a 25,000ft² (2,322m²) private terminal at John C. Tune Airport in Nashville, USA.
The new facility, scheduled for completion within the year, will include a 22,000ft² (2,044m²) hangar capable of accommodating large-cabin business jets such as the Global 7500. The terminal will also feature an executive lounge, private offices, and a conference room.
“Nashville is clearly one of the fastest-growing and most vibrant communities, attracting people from all over,” said Sean White, executive vice president of FBO development at Jet Access. “John C. Tune Airport has evolved into a center for business aviation. A new control tower and supporting infrastructure have positioned it for aviation growth.”
White added that the Nashville market is attracting new residents from other major US cities and is increasingly seen as comparable to Austin.
Jet Access said the development represents its second location in the Nashville region, complementing its existing operations at Music City Executive Airport in Gallatin. The company provides aircraft maintenance, charter, management, flight training, and FBO services from that location.
“There are very few facilities of this caliber anywhere in the country,” said Quinn Ricker, CEO of Jet Access. “Nashville represents a strategic home market for Jet Access, and we’re the only company operating across all five major business aviation verticals: maintenance, charter, management, FBOs, and aircraft brokerage.”
According to Jet Access, the new terminal will strengthen its ability to deliver integrated aviation services across Middle Tennessee and meet the increasing demand for business aviation in the region.
