at Beverly and transient operators. Bouillon acknowledges, “As we go through the master plan process, we’re looking at creative ways of using the footprint we have and at the safety areas that are encompassing the runways to determine if that space is adequate for the large cabin jet corporate aircraft that we’re serving, and will serve. We are redefining our vision and the mission statement to really highlight our recognition on a national level for what we can offer our customers and base tenants. Now our typical day is around 400 operations, so the question is: how do we incorporate this and build the sustainability in our long-term infrastructure plan? “Many general aviation airports around the country that don’t have passenger service are seeing limited growth, if any at all. And for us to have over 50% growth in just four years is incredible. We really stand out as far as a general aviation airport, insofar as total growth, and anticipated rate of growth in the next 10 years. We’re quite an anomaly in our category,” says Bouillon. Even through the recent events of the COVID-19 pandemic, the benefits of general aviation in serving communities in need is readily seen. General aviation is and will continue to be an important and integral part of our aviation industry and will help lead the way back during the inevitable economic recovery. Even at the time of this writing, business jet operations are recovering, the Airport continues to spur desire for development, and the FAA has reinforced its commitment and support for BVY as it continues down its path of being the intelligent alternative for the Massachusetts North Shore.
