THE FUTURE OF AVIATION IS HERE! We're an expanding general aviation airport, a reliever airport for Raleigh-Durham International (RDU) as they strategically move away from general aviation to accommodate their massive growth in commercial, passenger service.

We're also the state's leader in electric aviation with North Carolina's only charging station for electric aircraft.

✈️ AND NOW YOU CAN BE PART OF THE FUTURE! We're now leasing six brand-new box hangars with easy ground access to the entire Triangle Region, I-40 and I-85 — plus a strategic location central to the entire East Coast.

eLIFT-NC: A LOOK BACK ... We’ve focused a lot on Family Day — for obvious reasons! — but here’s more from our other major, recent event. Gov. Josh Stein and Beta Technologies CEO Kyle Clark highlighted a showcase last month launching North Carolina’s new project to enhance aviation across our state.

Many thanks to Matt Wilson at Bobbitt for recording this aerial perspective of the program in the ARQ Aviation hangar and portions of Raleigh Exec.
