179 BUSINESS VIEW MAGAZINE OCTOBER 2019 LAKE HAVASU C I TY A I RPORT owns 25 hangars and the rest of them are privately owned. We have one company out of California that is looking to come here and build some larger hangars to get some larger type aircraft in here, and that is one thing I am trying to shoot for.” “There are two Fixed Base Operators on the field - Desert Skies Air and Havasu Air Center - and they have their hangars that they rent out, as well as a few tie-downs,” he continues. “They handle fueling, maintenance, and even operate a restaurant on site, the Hangar 24 Brewery and Grill. We have two aircraft mechanics on the field through the two FBOs, and one of them does just single-engine, piston aircraft, and the other does turbo type aircraft. I am trying to work with some people, right now, to set up a third FBO on the south end of the field that’s going to accommodate maintenance facilities for larger Gulf Stream type aircraft. Then our Airport would be able to accommodate any aircraft coming in, whether it’s a Bonanza or a GS 650. We will have somebody on the field that can take care of the maintenance on those vehicles.”
