Aviation

Farnborough

Farnborough Airport has an illustrious past, a flourishing present and an exciting future. It was from here in 1908 that the UK's first powered flight took to the air. Other famous 'firsts' seen at Farnborough were the UK's first jet-powered flight and the world's first commercial jet airliner flight. Since 1949, it has been home to the Farnborough International Airshow, one of the worlds most important aviation events.

Farnborough was a government airfield and centre of aviation research up until 1989, when civil aviation operations began. Today, after a decade of redevelopment by TAG, and its co-investors including Stow, it is Europe's only airport dedicated exclusively to business aviation.

From the spectacular new control tower to the wave-design hangars and the ultramodern executive terminal building, a visit to Farnborough is like stepping into the airport of the future. The stunning 169-room Aviator Hotel successfully completes the airport's total transformation.

Heathrow

Stow's entry into the Heathrow market was the opportunity to provide a headquarters office for the rapidly expanding British Mediterranean Airways. This development completed a campus of three office buildings at Bedfont Road, Heathrow which is now let to a range of aviation businesses, including a major international airline and a global airport and aviation service provider.
