Lakeshore Aviation and Manitowoc County Airport are investing in your future! Groundbreaking was held Friday, Oct. 29th for a new 5,000 square foot hangar to handle increased demand for aircraft. Thanks to the folks at Morton Buildings, Seiler Bros. Construction, Jindra Plumbing and Heating, and electrician Doug Kiefer. And construction is underway for a new 35,000 gallon underground fuel system, which will include 24 hour self-serve 100LL Avgas and high-octane, no ethanol Mogas for LSA and STC'd aircraft. 100LL and Jet-A will still be available by full-serve truck, too.
