Western Aircraft Plans Expansion
Western Aircraft says it's approved
plans to expand its current FBO facilities in Boise, ID. The
current 1,450 sq ft building will be replaced with a spacious 3,600
sq ft facility. Construction of the new facility is scheduled to
begin during September of this year, with the completion expected
in February of 2006.
The renovation will continue in offering Western’s
visitors with specialized services such as gourmet catering, hotel
reservations, courtesy cars, shuttle service, and on-ramp rental
cars. The upgraded facility will include additional amenities such
as a separate pilot and passenger lounge, customer conference room,
and a flight planning center with WSI Pilotbrief Pro. The new FBO
will also provide customers with the flexibility of wireless
internet access. Additionally, Western can accommodate the largest
corporate jet in one of its five heated hangers.
Western Aircraft is an AVFuel branded FBO honoring the AVFuel
Commercial Contract Fuel Program as well as participating in the
AVTrip Fuel Incentive Program. The FBO also honors a variety of
other fuel contract programs. All of Western’s Line Service
Technicians are National Air & Transportation Association
Safety First trained, as safety is Western’s first and
foremost priority.
The company has a comprehensive menu of aviation services able
to satisfy the demanding needs of business aircraft, as well as the
people and companies operating them. Western is an authorized
service center for many of the world’s top business aircraft,
engine, and avionics manufacturers including Dassault Falcon Jet,
Pilatus, Raytheon (Beechcraft and Hawker), Cessna, Honeywell, and
Collins.
