47 AVIATION VIEW VOLUME 2, ISSUE 3 GRANBURY REGIONAL A I RPORT so we have helicopters coming in regularly as they go through their overhaul process. The maintenance is done here, but the live medical team flies off the pad across the street at the hospital. The other company, CareFlite, has a hangar and a pad here at the airport that they fly off.” The expansion project becomes an obvious need when you see how busy Granbury Regional Airport is. They operate as their own FBO managing all the fuel sales and hangar rentals. Stewart does admit, however, that there is not much to do right now when it comes to hangar rentals. We have a waiting list of about 45 people, and the turnover is non-existent. We got a notice the other day that someone was leaving and that is the first one in over a year. However, there are T-hangars soon to be built for lease by other parties and we are happy about that because once they are built it will pretty much wipe out our waiting list.”
