Info

Faith Air, Inc. occupies the north conventional hangar on the newly constructed south apron. They provide aircraft maintenance for piston aircraft. They began operation in September of 2003. The general manager foresees expanding their business to include jet engine maintenance in the future. There are five full-time employees: three mechanics, a parts manager, and the general manager. P & S Aerowest occupies the conventional hangar directly north of the terminal building. P & S is a subsidiary of the Steve Silver Company, which is a major furniture wholesaler. Housed in the hangar is a Cessna Citation (525) business jet. The Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS) operates out of the executive hangar at the north end of the airfield. They house a helicopter and a single engine piston aircraft in the hangar. The DPS utilizes aircraft in support of its law and drug enforcement operations. Barr Air Patrol operates out of the offices and T-hangar complex at the south end of the airport. They provide aircraft parts and provide services for aerial patrol and inspection. Other businesses on airport property include Dallas Avionics, Custom Electronic Solutions, and Reunion Ranch, Inc. Aircraft Parking Apron There are two primary aircraft aprons utilized for public aircraft parking and 1-11 tie-down at Mesquite Metro Airport. The north apron, identified on Exhibit 1C, provides approximately 13,400 square yards and 37 marked tie-down positions. The south apron consists of approximately 20,000 square yards and has 14 marked tie-down positions, as well as transient ramp space. The south apron is expected to be lighted to better facilitate evening operations in 2005. Secondary apron space is available fronting Moorehead Aviation and the south hangar facilities. Automobile Parking There are several parking lots available for vehicle parking at Mesquite Metro Airport. The airport terminal building parking lot provides for 37 spaces, two of which are designated handicapped. There is a second parking lot to the north of hangar number 1130 #100. This lot can accommodate 44 vehicles. The total number of formal parking spaces is 81. However, most aircraft owners simply drive their vehicles to their hangar rather than park in identified parking and walk to their aircraft. Airport Road Public access to the airport is served by Airport Boulevard. Airport Boulevard extends from Scyene Road to the southernmost hangar complex. This road was recently extended approximately 800 feet from the new terminal building area to the south hangar complex.
Fuel Facilities As the only fuel provider on the airfield, the City of Mesquite owns the fuel farm and the fuel trucks. The fuel farm consists of two 12,000-gallon above ground storage tanks. The storage tanks, one for Avgas and the other for Jet A fuel, are located just west of the north apron. The farm is served by a service road extending from Airport Boulevard. Fuel is delivered to aircraft via a 1,000-gallon Avgas truck and a 2,400-gallon Jet A fuel truck. The airport recently installed a self-serve Avgas facility located on the north apron, near the west fence line, adjacent to the fuel farm. Aircraft Rescue and Firefighting (ARFF) There are no ARFF facilities permanently based at Mesquite Metro Airport. The City of Mesquite provides ARFF services to the airport on an “oncall” basis. Fire Station No. 7 is located approximately two miles from the airport on Clay-Mathis Road. The airport has provided advanced training to firefighters at Fire Station No. 7 on working with aircraft fires. The station also maintains specialized foaming agents designed for use with aircraft fires. Security Fencing In 2003, perimeter security fencing was installed with three electronic gate access points. Approved individuals are provided a card with an identifying 1-12 magnetic strip calibrated by the airport staff which allows access through the gates. There are also key pads on the gates where an access code can be entered. The three gate access points to the airfield are identified on Exhibit 1C. Utilities The availability and capacity of the utilities serving the airport are factors in determining the development potential of the airport property, as well as the land immediately adjacent to the facility. The airport is supplied water (looped water main) and sanitary sewer services via the City of Mesquite’s system. Electrical service is provided to the airport by Reliant Energy. SBC provides communications and data lines. Natural gas is not currently supplied to the airport. AIRSPACE INFORMATION This section of the plan identifies factors influencing air navigation around and at Mesquite Metro Airport. Consideration of these additional elements, such as area navigational aids, area airspace classification, and approved instrument approach procedures, have a direct impact on aircraft using Mesquite Metro Airport. Navigational Aids Navigational aids are electronic devices that transmit radio frequencies which pilots of properly equipped aircraft can
