Sonoma Jet Center, one of two aviation services providers at California’s Charles M. Schulz-So
noma County Airport, has completed co
nstruction on new 21,000-sq-ft hangar for corporate aircraft. Capable of sheltering the latest ultra-long-range business jets, the addition brings available hangar space at the Signature selec location to 30,000 sq ft. The new building, adjacent to the existing
FBO, includes office and workshop space, a fully equipped gym with showers, meeting spaces and lounge areas as well as direct roadside access and a gate to accommodate rampside vehicle access.
Demand for hangar space is growing in the San Francisco Bay area. “Many business jet clients…have asked for more hangar space with us,” said company president Josh Hochberg. “Building a new corporate hangar was simply the next logical step in expanding the range of services we can offer.”
The facility recently achieved certification under the Internatio
nal Standard for Business Aircraft Handling (IS-BAH), becoming the first FBO in Northern California to achieve that distinction. It has also introduced a professio
nal aircraft detailing division offering services including exterior wash and wax, leather and carpet cleaning, bright work and de-ice boot strip and seal.
