Existing Ceiling Detail
Airplane Maintenance Hanger
Heritage Flight is a private charter jet service located at the south end of the Burlington International Airport
runway. TruexCullins was tasked with renovating an existing 1948 US Army aviation hanger. The new
program included public spaces, offices, aircraft maintenance space and a US Customs and Border Patrol
processing office. The skin of the building was completely removed to facilitate major structural renovations and two areas of expansion. My role was to work closely with the project manager and consultants to
develop the working drawings while maintaining the design intent. The photo of the existing ceiling became
an important part of the team’s decision to expose that ceiling whenever possible. Coordination of the new
mechanical and lighting elements became integral to the expression of the existing structure. The owner
shared our interest in creating an environmentally responsible design, which includes a green roof, solar
panels, storm water management and several day lighting strategies. The new building is expected to earn
Leed Silver Certification.
This project is currently under construction and will be completed in 2009.
