The Palm Springs market has a new full-service FBO at Jacqueline Cochran Regional Airport. Tradition Aviation, started by a group of real estate developers who own the Tradition Country Club, has developed 26 acres on the airport in a golf-oriented theme and plans to open a 35,000-sq-ft hangar this month. Former Million Air and Signature Flight Support manager Penny Nelson is Tradition’s new general manager. Tradition has plenty of airport land available and will build custom hangars to suit tenants.

New developments at FBOs including regulations and noise issues; legal disputes; openings, acquisitions and mergers.
