West Star Aviation has officially launched its expansion program in Chattanooga, marking the occasion with a groundbreaking ceremony on July 13 with construction starting the same day.

The new hangar complex will consist of 40,000 square feet of active hangar space and an additional 17,000 square feet of shop and support space.

Additionally, West Star has started retrofitting one of its existing hangars to include a new design studio, customer accommodations and nearly double their interior shop capacity. The complete planned expansion of the Chattanooga location will increase the total operational footprint from 180,000 square feet to approximately 260,000 square feet effectively. The construction should be complete in less than a year, with a June 2023 expected completion date. Click here to learn more.
