Signature Flight Support announced today, Sept. 5, it has officially opened its renovated facility at L.G. Hanscom Field Airport (KBED) in Bedford, Massachusetts. The upgraded facility includes a new 6,500-square-foot passenger terminal, an increase of 2,500 square feet compared with the previous building. Signature said it has also created a one-way airside loop at the upgraded FBO “to make aircraft boarding safer and more intuitive and simplified the landside arrival experience with additional signage and faster moving access gates.”

The airport is a prime destination for general aviation access to Boston, a 40-minute drive to downtown. Tony Lefebvre, Signature Aviation CEO, said, “Hanscom Field is a familiar name for any aircraft operator [who] frequents Boston or broader New England, which makes it an indispensable part of Signature’s Northeast presence. What we’ve built takes some of our most innovative ideas to elevate the FBO experience and scale to the rest of our network.”
