Hawthorne began construction on the FBO at the Chicago Executive Airport in May 2013, and completed it in March 2014.
“We built this brand new facility to meet the growing demand for premier corporate and business aviation services in the Chicago area, a vibrant top three general aviation market in the United States,” said Steven Levesque, President and CEO of Hawthorne Global Aviation Services. “With this FBO, it broadens our geographic footprint of FBOs throughout the U.S. to now include the largest market in the Midwest.”
The FBO at Chicago Executive Airport expands the Hawthorne Global Aviation Services network of FBOs across North America that includes FBOs at MacArthur Airport in Islip, NY (KISP) and Lakefront Airport in New Orleans (KNEW).
“We are very excited to bring the world class service of Hawthorne Global Aviation Services to the Chicago market,” said David Annin, General Manager of the Chicago FBO. “With this brand new, state-of-the art facility at Chicago Executive Airport we offer the corporate and business aviation traveler the best and most convenient means of doing business in Chicago.”
Chicago Executive Airport is the fourth busiest airport in Illinois and plays a crucial role as a reliever for the region, which includes O’Hare International Airport. It includes three active runways on more than 412 acres. The airport is managed under the guidance of the Chicago Executive Airport Board of Directors, an advisory board of members from each municipality.
