226 BUSINESS VIEW MAGAZINE VOLUME 9, ISSUE 6 2023. “We do have a business park with taxi lane access,” says Hanafin, “and we currently have one main tenant, Quincy Recycles. But we also have space available for anyone to use if they want to move their company’s aviation headquarters here. I should also mention that one of the most interesting things about Quincy Regional is that we are home to the largest privately-held air force in the world. It is called Air USA and they are a government contractor with the military capability to do air-to-air and air-to-ground training exercises. They have a fleet of aircraft that come from Russia and the former Eastern Bloc countries, so they can run through real-time training on battles with potential enemy aircraft.” There is currently a big push by the City of Quincy to market itself as a great place to live. “It is focused on the idea of encouraging people to take a second look at us,” Hanafin notes, “and we are joining right in with that sentiment here at the airport. This is a truly great area with truly great people. We are excited that with our runway project and safety improvements we are creating a better airport which will attract even more people and businesses to base their aircraft here. There is so much opportunity and we have so much to offer.” PREFERRED VENDOR/PARTNER n Cape Air capeair.com
