The Notice of Interest (NOI) submitted by the Bucks County Airport Authority would create “The Pitcairn Aviation Business Center” (PABC) which will be a general aviation airport utilized by personal and business aircraft operators. This does not include scheduled passenger or freight airline aircraft. There are no plans for any type of commercial scheduled airline or air freight service.

Phase 1 would consist of 536 acres which includes the runway and the two concrete tarmac areas along with the aviation related buildings on the Northeast side of the runway. It would not include the larger concrete tarmac area or aviation related buildings on the north-northeast end of the runway.

Phase 2 would consist of 145 acres, on the southeast side of the existing airport. It would border the runway, Maple Ave., Horsham Road and Commonwealth National Golf Club. It would be utilized for corporate offices and hangars.

The PABC will become a magnet for quality business organizations who seek to locate new business units in Horsham Township and Bucks and Montgomery Counties. The PABC will form the core foundation which will attract new businesses to locate their headquarters and/or regional offices in the region.
