Castle Air doubles the size of Beggin Hill facility, cements its position as leading helicopter company

The original hangar is expanded by purchasing the hangar next to them which doubled the size of Castle Air’s facility.
The large hangar will provide space for 23 additional helicopters encompassing engineering, management, and sales as well as the addition of a state-of-the-art VIP lounge and office space.

Castle Air has been expanding its support and maintenance of the Leonardo AW139 model over the last decade.

Castle Air Group has recently doubled the size of their London Biggin Hill Airport facility with the addition of a 20,000-sq ft adjacent hangar and office space.

As Castle Air Group continues to expand, with the recent addition of the Cornwall Air Ambulance Trust contract, they hope to further their offering at Biggin Hill.  The large hangar will provide space for 23 additional helicopters encompassing engineering, management, and sales as well as the addition of a state-of-the-art VIP lounge and office space.

Ross Bunyard, Managing Director said, “Due to the huge success of our busy London Biggin Hill facility we decided to expand, by purchasing the hangar next to us which will double the size of our facility as well as much needed apron space. As well as supporting our large client base of AW109’s owners, over the last 10 years, we have been expanding our support and maintenance of the Leonardo AW139 model for which we are an authorized service center.  We have plans to construct a pilot suite for visiting aircraft where pilots can relax between flights or whilst waiting for their helicopter to be released from maintenance. The Castle Air Aviation Group is a rapidly expanding company with more exciting expansion plans in the near future.”

Robert Walters, Commercial Director at London Biggin Hill Airport said, “Through Castle Air, London Biggin Hill is home to more London-based helicopters than any other airport. Doubling the size of its footprint cements Castle Air’s position as the leading helicopter company in the UK and we are thrilled with the Group’s continued success and the important role the company plays within our business aviation ecosystem.”

With over 40 years of experience in the engineering, charter, management, and sales of aircraft, Castle Air has built a long-standing reputation in the industry and has swiftly become one of the leaders in helicopter charter.
