RALEIGH, N.C., Aug. 26, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — On Wednesday evening, August 25, 2021, there was a small fire at Blue Line Aviation’s new facility, which is under the final stages of construction at Johnston Regional Airport (KJNX), in Smithfield, North Carolina.
The damage was very minimal and should have incidental impact on the completion date, which is slated for late September 2021. Fortunately, the fire was isolated to a small area on the roof, and no one was harmed in the incident. “We are blessed beyond measure. It could have been a lot worse. We appreciate the watchful eye that called it in as well as the large, rapid response from multiple fire agencies who extinguished it quickly while taking care to not cause more damage. We are also thankful to our Almighty God who continues to hold the Blue Line family in His hands of protection,” says Trey Walters, CEO.
Once completed, the complex will house four companies: Blue Line Aviation, Blue Line Technical Services, Sparkchasers Aircraft Services, and Low and Slow Smokehouse and will be the largest public-private partnership in the airport’s history. This unique business model is designed to help people begin their careers in aviation, which is seeing unprecedented need for pilots.
