Loyd’s Aviation, an aircraft charter and management provider based at California’s Meadows Field Airport (KBFL) since the late 1950s, has secured the bid to take over the sole fixed-base operator (FBO) at Paso Robles Municipal Airport (KPRB), currently managed by ACI Jet.
Loyd’s, which owns and operates the Bakersfield Jet Center at KBFL, will assume control of the facility located in the airport terminal in the fourth quarter. The company plans a 5,200-square-foot, two-story addition to the existing terminal to include a conference room, crew lounge, private lobby, and customer reception area.
The $9 million project will also feature a hangar complex for small to midsize business aircraft with individual private-use hangars. Additionally, a new maintenance shop will occupy an existing 10,000-square-foot hangar.
