FL: Full-Time Flight School Comes to Flagler Executive Airport, Invests $500,000
June 5, 2018
Phoenix East Aviation Enterprises LLC will convert a hangar at the Flagler Executive Airport into a flight school with 15 to 20 full-time students, including adding classrooms, a lounge and a flight simulator room. The renovations to the facility, which was built in 1960, are expected to cost $493,000, plus another $150,000 in furnishings, which increases the value of the county’s asset, according to Airport Director Roy Sieger.
The Flagler County Commission voted on June 4 to accept the terms of the deal with Phoenix East.
