KBM Forestry Consultants Inc. receives over $340,000 in NOHFC funding for the expansion of its hanger.
THUNDER BAY — A local company has expanded its hangar at the Thunder Bay airport, with a big helping hand from the province.
“With aircraft, its dimensions are pretty key to making sure you've got a big enough door. It's like your garage at home, you never quite build it big enough,” Gillies said.“KBM provides valuable resources or services to our natural resources industry," said Holland, "which of course, is the cornerstone of the economy here in Northwestern Ontario.”
Gillies mentioned when parking one of their large-sized planes, the pilot had to do some tricky manoeuvring to get it through doors.Gillies noted that another benefit of the expansion is that maintenance has more room to work on the planes.
