The Lexington-Fayette Urban County Airport Board has selected Denham-Blythe to construct a new 50,000sq ft hangar for large corporate aircraft at Blue Grass airport in Kentucky. The new hangar includes 30ft high doors and is designed to accommodate business jets in sizes up to the Gulfstream G700 and Global Express 7500/8000 platforms.

Construction is set to begin in October 2023 with anticipated completion in autumn 2024.

The $15.5 million hangar project will include associated offices and storage spaces as well as vehicle parking.

“Blue Grass airport is committed to advancing its private aviation facilities to meet the evolving needs of the aviation community,” says president and CEO Eric Frankl. “This new hangar represents a significant step forward in that effort. The 30ft high doors will provide the flexibility to house a diverse fleet of aircraft, and we look forward to providing our corporate aviation partners with an exceptional facility with the utmost conveniences.”
