KCAC Aviation Doubles Maintenance Capacity with New 30,000-Square-Foot Hangar at KOJC
/KCAC Aviation is proud to announce the opening of its new 30,000-square-foot maintenance hangar at Johnson County Executive Airport (KOJC). This new facility doubles KCAC's service capacity, allowing the company to support and maintain the growing fleet of Pilatus and Piper aircraft across its sales region.
"The addition of a second dedicated maintenance hangar gives our team the space and resources they need to complete inspections and overhauls more efficiently, which means improved workflow and less downtime for our customers," said Preston Estes, Director of Maintenance for KCAC Aviation.
The ribbon-cutting ceremony, held on August 13, 2025, brought together county officials, airport commissioners, industry partners, customers and KCAC team members. General Manager Tony Mateer, along with KCAC's A&P maintenance technicians, cut the ceremonial ribbon—recognizing the team's hard work and dedication and celebrating a facility that is truly their own.
"This hangar is more than additional space—it's an investment in our people, our customers and the future of KCAC," said Mateer. "With a facility of this size, we can support Pilatus and Piper owners more efficiently while maintaining the highest standards of quality and safety that our customers and employees deserve. It's an exciting milestone for our maintenance department and the entire KCAC team."
The new facility marks one of the largest expansions in KCAC's nearly 60-year history, enabling the company to streamline aircraft maintenance services, accommodate larger projects and enhance customer support.
