Staff Report From Georgia CEO

Thursday, November 20th, 2025

Sky Harbour Group Corporation (NYSE: SKYH, SKYH WS) ("SHG" or the "Company"), an airport infrastructure company building the first nationwide network of Home Base Operator (HBO) campuses for business aircraft, announced that the DeKalb County Board of Commissioners voted to authorize the execution of a ground lease agreement for the development of a Sky Harbour HBO campus at the DeKalb-Peachtree Airport (PDK), serving DeKalb County and the Atlanta metropolitan area.

 

The proposed Sky Harbour campus will offer "the best home base in business aviation" to house Atlanta’s top corporate and private business jets in state-of-the art hangars, with line services dedicated exclusively to based tenants, offering "the shortest time to wheels-up in business aviation." The development, on approximately 13 acres, is expected to create or sustain hundreds of local jobs and generate meaningful economic benefits for DeKalb County.

DeKalb-Peachtree Airport, Sky Harbour’s 20th home-base airport, joins Sky Harbour campus locations now operating at Houston’s Sugar Land Regional Airport (SGR), Nashville International Airport (BNA), Miami Opa-Locka Executive Airport (OPF), San Jose Mineta Airport (SJC), Southern California’s Camarillo Airport (CMA), Seattle’s King County International Airport – Boeing Field (BFI), Phoenix Deer Valley Airport (DVT), Dallas Addison Airport (ADS), and Denver Centennial Airport (APA; and campuses in development at Chicago Executive Airport (PWK), Connecticut Bradley International Airport (BDL), New York Hudson Valley Regional Airport (POU), Orlando Executive Airport (ORL), Washington Dulles International Airport (IAD), New York Stewart International Airport (SWF), Salt Lake City International Airport (SLC), New Jersey Trenton-Mercer Airport (TTN), Portland Hillsboro Airport (HIO), and Long Beach Airport (LGB) with additional campuses expected to be announced soon.

 

Tal Keinan, Sky Harbour CEO commented, "DeKalb-Peachtree Airport represents a triple win: first, for the citizens of DeKalb County, who will benefit from job growth, direct revenues and a reduced airport noise footprint; second, for Atlanta’s business aviation community, who’s members have vigorously sought to secure a Sky Harbour HBO campus at PDK; and third, for Sky Harbour. This is the culmination of a five-year effort to enter the number one airport in one of the nation’s most robust and fastest-growing business aviation markets. We thank CEO Cochran-Johnson, COO Williams, and Airport Director Hines for their partnership. Special thanks to Piper Burks and Bill Patterson of the Atlanta Chapter of the Tuskegee Airmen for cementing Sky Harbour’s second national partnership with Tuskegee."

Sky Harbour’s facility will include hangar space to house late-model business aircraft of various sizes, with adjacent office space, operational infrastructure, generous ramp, and automobile parking.
