Hangar Ground Lease Responsibilities

The Club owns all of the lands on which the hangars are built. We have 159 hangar units on the field. The Club owns 43 and the remaining 116 units are privately owned. Hangar owners do not have the right to occupy their hangars without a signed Hangar Ground Lease in place.  This states that “The Club agrees to lease the Hangar Lands to the Hangar Owner (Tenant), provided and for so long as the Tenant is a member in good standing of the Club, for the sole purposes of using and maintaining the Hanger and the Hangar Lands, upon and subject to the terms of this lease and in accordance with the uses allowed by the Lease.” Hangar Tenants must be BFC Members.  Each Tenant and each owner of the aircraft to be stored in the Hangar must have and maintain a fully paid-up membership in good standing in the Club. If the Tenant is a partnership, or if the aircraft to be stored in the Hangar is owned by a partnership, each partner must be a member of the Club and be a party to the Lease. In addition, the Tenant shall not assign the Lease, sublease or permit the occupation by others of any portion of the hangar without obtaining prior written consent from the Club.

Brampton Airport – Vehicle Airside Policy

With an increasing number of vehicles within the hangar community and concerns expressed from the hangar community, BFC has tightened up control in regard to airside vehicle access.

If it is absolutely necessary for you to bring a vehicle airside, you will need to contact Nanci Soldo, Airport Administrator, to sign the BFC Airside Vehicle Access and Control agreement. You will then be given access to the app which controls the north parking lot gate.  Nanci can be reached at [email protected], or extension 333.

Hangars are for Aircraft

We are often reminded by our insurance company that “Hangars are for Aircraft”. The reason for this is to keep the risk of loss at a minimum, and to protect our Club, people and property. The Hangar and the Hangar Lands are to be used and occupied solely for the storage of the Tenant’s aircraft and its accessories, supplies or equipment.

Hangars may not be used to store materials or objects not related to the Tenant’s aircraft or not related to aviation purposes. That includes cars, trailers, snowmobiles, boats, etc. Hazardous or flammable materials should not be used or stored in or around the hangars except those needed for the normal operation and maintenance of your aircraft.

Tenants are to comply with all relevant laws, by-laws, rules, regulations and guidelines of any relevant governmental authority, the Club and/or any insurer of the Club or the Tenant, including, without limitation, all federal aviation laws and all environmental laws.

Example: Spray Painting is Prohibited

Process for Hangar Improvements

As per the BFC Tenant Ground Leases, all changes and improvements to hangars require approval. Please contact Nanci  [email protected] for the Hangar Improvement application form or if you have any questions or concerns. Nanci can fax or email you the required documentation, along with the Contractor Agreement if you are using outside contractors to do the work.

BFC Aircraft Washing Facility

The BFC Aircraft Washing Facility is available to aircraft based on the field from mid April to the end of October each year.  The water is normally shut off the first week in November to prevent the pipes from freezing during the winter season.
