US FBO chain Modern Aviation has completed the groundbreaking of a new hangar complex at its Fort Worth, Texas location at Meacham International airport, marking a significant investment in the market and reinforcing its commitment to supporting continued growth within the aviation community.

The development project will consist of two hangars on parcel 14C, totalling approximately 87,150 sq ft of combined hangar and office space. The complex will include two 39,200 sq ft hangars, each paired with a 4,375 sq ft attached office. Both hangars are designed to accommodate the largest business jets available today while enhancing operational efficiency and customer service offerings at the airport. The project is currently targeted for completion in the first quarter of 2027.

This expansion represents a major step forward in Modern Aviation's continued investment in Fort Worth and underscores the company's long-term commitment to Meacham International. The new facilities are expected to support increased demand in the region while providing modern, high-quality infrastructure for tenants and customers.

Modern Aviation president and CEO Mark Carmen says: “We are proud to break ground on this new hangar complex in Fort Worth, which reflects our ongoing commitment to investing in the communities and airports we serve. This project strengthens our ability to meet growing demand at Meacham International airport and further enhances the exceptional service and facilities our customers expect from Modern Aviation.”
