Fargo Jet Center Expands Facility at KFAR With New Hangar and Office Complex
/Fargo Jet Center (FJC), located at Fargo, ND’s Hector International Airport (KFAR), is expanding its facility with a new $22 million 112,000 sq. ft. hangar and office complex.
As an FAA-approved part 145 repair station and maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) provider, the expansion will be utilized for aircraft maintenance, avionics, and aircraft special mission modifications, as well as much-needed hangar storage space for tenant and visiting aircraft. The new facility will also house the headquarters for sister company Weather Modification International, and FJC’s growing aerospace engineering department and flight school.
The new complex will include a 27,000 sq. ft. maintenance hangar, a 23,000 sq. ft. hangar dedicated to aircraft special mission modifications, a surround of maintenance and avionics support offices, technical workspace, and rooms for composite fabrication, paint, and sheet metal fabrication. Additionally, the hangars will have 30-foot-tall doors to accommodate some of the largest business aircraft in use today.
The expansion is being managed by Olaf Anderson Construction (Fargo, ND) and is estimated to be completed in Fall 2023.
