The New Jersey Forest Fire Service has issued eviction notices to tenants at Aeroflex‑Andover Airport, requiring them to vacate by Dec. 31, and plans to demolish the airport’s historic hangars citing critical repair and condition issues.
AOPA’s vice president of airports and state advocacy and its eastern regional manager met with senior advisors to Governor Mikie Sherrill about the notices, while AOPA challenged the state’s justification, arguing the hangars are in good condition and essential to airport operations; independent engineers concurred that only minor repairs are needed. Josh Gottheimer noted the state‑commissioned engineering assessment estimates $4.7 million for repairs, $8 million for demolition and $11 million for new hangar facilities, and the evictions would likely force a flight school and an aircraft maintenance shop to close permanently.
