South Parallel Runway Project

Plans for the airport include extending the east-west runways and developing a new aircraft hangar area on the south side of the airport.

The photos and drawing below show the Phase 1 South Parallel Runway improvements currently being made to the Flying Cloud Airport. The proposed hangar area, shown in blue, is a draft layout. The hangars will be constructed by airport tenants. The first hangars could begin to be built in 2010. However, it will beyears before the entire site is built out. Site preparation for the South Parallel Runway Phase 2 and South Hangar Area is just beginning.
