Conroe-North Houston Airport

4 BUSINESS VIEW MAGAZINE VOLUME 10, ISSUE 11 Beginning in 1944, the United States Navy leased the airport, citing its potential strategic importance in the defense of Houston and Port Arthur. After the war, the Navy canceled its lease, and the airport continued to grow, as Brown relays. As the director, Brown’s role is all- encompassing. Included in his duties are the overall development, maintenance, and administration of the airport. He also spoke of the two FBOs: Galaxy FBO and the General Aviation Jet Center (a decades-long airport fixture). Galaxy is the newer kid on the runway, having started in 2015. Both FBOs are well known as excellent benchmarks of the aviation industry. They offer first-rate amenities, including transient hangar and tie-down options; rental car and limousine service arrangements; and catering and crew comfort areas. Plus, both FBOs also offer service and support for helicopter operations. (936) 522-3530 | ConroeEDC.org CONVENIENT INFRASTRUCTURE AND MOBILITY ROBUST WORKFORCE STRONG QUALITY OF LIFE
