The new facility includes a reception area and lobby, a pilot's lounge, showers, conference room and a room and equipment for pilots to file flight plans. In addition to providing improved amenities for pilots and their guests, the terminal would also play an increased role in economic development.
More recently, the authority has completed work on restriping, repaving and strengthening the airport's runways and has overhauled some of the airport's hangers. New aircraft hangers have been added and an FAA-approved security fence installed that provides improved security around the entire airport. -B Meyer, FMI: Aviator article
