Arkel Constructors partnered with BTR Jet to deliver two major phases of their expansion at the Baton Rouge Metropolitan Airport, enhancing both their operations and aircraft storage capabilities.
The first phase involved the construction of a new, 6,800-square-foot Fixed Base Operator (FBO) facility. Designed and built as a two-story metal structure, this FBO now serves as the central hub for BTR Jet’s administrative operations. Completed in just eight months, the building brings a modern presence to the airport, supporting both staff and clientele.
In the second phase, Arkel Constructors completed two expansive aircraft hangars totaling over 35,000 square feet of storage space. Each hangar, built with durable metal framing, was delivered on a six-month timeline. Both feature sliding panel doors with clear openings of 160 feet wide and 90 feet high offering seamless access and ample room for aircraft maneuvering and storage.
