Table 5-9. Common types of hangar facilities.
A grouping of hangars in a rectangular shaped building. The name is derived from
T-hangar the shape that the hangar within the rectangular building takes in the form of a T.
Typical T-hangars have door widths of approximately 45 feet.
A square or rectangular-shaped hangar with large open-bay spaces capable of
accommodating multiple aircraft in a community setting. Conventional hangars
Conventional
typically range in size from 75 feet by 75 feet to upwards of 100,000 square feet
Hangar per building. Such hangars are typically owned and operated by an FBO.
Conventional hangars are also referred to as community hangars.
A square or rectangular-shaped hangar that usually stands alone and is designed
primarily to accommodate the business aircraft operations of a single company or
Executive (Box) individual who may or may not service (and stage) their own aircraft. Executive
Hangar hangars are typically larger than stand-alone T-hangars, but smaller than most
corporate hangars. In many cases, office, shop, and/or storage space is located
within the structure.
A square or rectangular-shaped hangar similar to a conventional hangar, but used to
Corporate accommodate the business aircraft operations of a single company who typically
Hangar services (and stages) its own aircraft. Corporate hangars, which typically stand
alone, are usually larger than executive hangars.

ground to a private developer who, in turn, constructs hangar facilities. In either case, the opera-
tor may want to develop specific construction guidelines to be followed. If an airport has received
FAA grant funds, it is important that leases are at fair market value to meet FAA grant assurances.
5.5.4 Commercial Operations
Commercial operations, particularly on-demand air taxi and per-seat on-demand, may require
additional ground handling services. Although the services identified in Table 5-10 could apply to
all aircraft regardless of flight purpose, these services may be more important in serving commer-
cial operations whose passengers may be less familiar with GA.
5.6 Landside Development
Landside facilities support airport activity by accommodating aircraft operators and passengers
transitioning between the landside and airside environments. These facilities are the interface
between the airport and the community. The interrelationship between various landside facilities
