Pond provided architecture and engineering services for this 8-bay maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) hangar and ramp. Pond initially assisted Jacksonville Aviation Authority in developing the programming and preparing a construction budget to respond to an RFP from Boeing.
The programming included planning the site layout including future development in accordance with Part 77 surfaces and previously permitted wetland impact areas.
The airside design includes a parking apron with eight 737 parking positions and two taxi lanes to provide access from the existing Taxiway Echo to the new MRO hangar facility.
The apron will include services utility pits and tie-downs to maintain both F-18 and P-8 aircrafts including two parking positions dedicated to fueling and defueling operations. The project also includes all landside facilities and infrastructure including parking lots, access drives, security fences and gates, water systems, sanitary sewer systems, stormwater management, and stormwater conveyance systems for the approximate 50-acre facility.
