Five Factors Driving Business Jet Hangar Availability
Hangar Space Isn't Keeping Up — Is Your Company Ready?
You may have seen the recent NBAA Business Aviation Insiderarticle, “5 Factors Driving Business Jet Hangar Availability.” The U.S. business jet fleet has doubled in 20 years, but hangar space hasn't kept up — creating pressure and opportunity for FBOs and hangar owners.
In the article, Centrex President Jimmy Severson shares insights on the challenges of modern aviation infrastructure:
- Newer jets are taller, requiring hangar doors over 28 feet — sometimes triggering costly fire-foam systems.
- Construction costs have climbed nearly 40% since 2020, yet demand remains strong, pushing FBOs to adjust rent accordingly.
Severson highlights how thoughtful planning and smart design are helping aviation leaders meet these challenges — delivering the right facilities, in the right places, with the right return.
