Signature Flight Support

Signature Flight Support at Roanoke-Blacksburg Regional Airport operates a newly renovated facility at 22 Waypoint Drive NW with views of the Blue Ridge Mountains visible from the terminal. The FBO is open 24/7 and provides fueling, ground handling, and the full Signature amenity package. Handling fees are waived with a minimum fuel purchase, an arrangement that helps keep costs manageable for transient aircraft. The facility serves two distinct markets: the city of Roanoke, a regional commercial center in Virginia's Blue Ridge region, and Virginia Tech in Blacksburg, located about 40 miles southwest. Game day weekends at Virginia Tech's Lane Stadium drive predictable surges in private aviation traffic, particularly during football season when alumni and donors fly in from across the East Coast. Roanoke itself has emerged as an attractive destination, with the revitalized downtown featuring a growing restaurant scene, craft breweries, and the Center in the Square cultural complex. The Blue Ridge Parkway, one of America's most scenic drives, passes through the area, and the Appalachian Trail crosses nearby. Outdoor recreation including hiking, mountain biking, and fly fishing in the region's rivers and streams draws visitors year-round. The airport's 6,800-foot primary runway accommodates most midsize jets, and the surrounding terrain requires awareness of mountain approaches, though the procedures are standard for the region. Carilion Clinic, the region's largest healthcare system and employer, generates regular medical transport and executive aviation traffic. For charter passengers visiting Virginia's Blue Ridge for business, Virginia Tech events, or outdoor recreation, Signature at Roanoke provides a comfortable, recently updated facility that serves as the sole FBO at the region's primary airport.
