The Sky Harbour Group Corporation, which is building a US network of hangar campuses for business aircraft, has executed a lease agreement with Mercer County in New Jersey for the development of a home base campus at Trenton-Mercer airport, the gateway airport to New Jersey's capital, New York City and Philadelphia.

The campus, to be developed on approximately 10 acres, is expected to create or sustain hundreds of local jobs and generate significant economic benefits for Mercer County. The campus will house New Jersey's top corporate and privately-owned business jets in state-of-the art hangars, with line-services dedicated exclusively to based tenants, offering short times to wheels-up.

Trenton-Mercer airport joins Sky Harbour campus locations now operating at Houston's Sugar Land Regional airport, Nashville International, Miami Opa-Locka Executive, San Jose Mineta and Camarillo, and campuses in development at Denver Centennial, Phoenix Deer Valley, Dallas Addison, Chicago Executive, Bradley International, Hudson Valley Regional, Orlando Executive, Dulles International, Stewart International and Salt Lake City International, with additional campuses soon to be announced.

Tal Keinan, Sky Harbour's chairman and chief executive officer, comments: “Trenton-Mercer serves southern New Jersey, and the New York and Philadelphia metro markets. TTN is Sky Harbour's fourth airport serving the New York Metro. Mercer County has been an outstanding partner, and we are grateful for the opportunity to deliver on our commitment to the airport and to the citizens of Ewing Township and Trenton. The Sky Harbour campus will be another best-in-class facility with outstanding operational leadership driving uncompromising standards for business aviation safety and efficiency.”

“We're excited to welcome Sky Harbour to Mercer County,” adds county executive Dan Benson. “This agreement underscores Trenton-Mercer's status as an important hub for business aviation, which brings investment, jobs and revenue into communities throughout our county and our region.”

Sky Harbour's facility will include hangar space to house the latest business aircraft of all sizes, adjacent office space, critical operational infrastructure and significant ramp and car parking.
