LINCOLN, NEB — Duncan Aviation’s newest expansion, a 45,000-square-foot paint shop at the Lincoln, Neb., facility is on schedule to open in the spring of 2012.
The new facility will soon allow input of some of the largest business aircraft in use today, including Gulfstream’s 650, Bombardier’s Global Express and Dassault’s Falcon 7X.
After four months of construction, the hangar’s main frames are complete, along with extension of the ramp at the Lincoln Airport. Framing at the hangar door and the roofing process are also underway. It is anticipated that the hangar will be enclosed by mid-November.
“All of Duncan Aviation is excited for the upcoming paint facility to open,” says Jeff Lake, Chief Operating Officer in Lincoln. “The expansion means that we will have even better opportunity to serve operators looking for the paint craftsmanship and attention to detail that our customers have come to respect.”
The planned $10.5 million facility will have the latest in down-draft air flow technology, including automatic monitoring and alarms. This new facility along with Duncan Aviation’s new “chrome-free” paint process and recent FAA-Approved Paint Process proves Duncan Aviation’s commitment to the environment, customers and team members.
