United Flight Training Center Expansion, Building H

Design-Build Excellence: United Airlines’ New Flight Training Facility

Turner provided Design-Build services for Building H, a state-of-the-art, five-story, 155,700 sq. ft. flight training facility located at United Airlines’ Flight Training Center (FTC) campus near the former Stapleton Airport in Denver. Executed under a Design-Build delivery model, Turner served as Construction Manager, guiding the project from planning through substantial completion on an accelerated schedule.

The new facility supports United’s expanding pilot training needs—particularly for certification on the 737 Max and 70 Airbus A321neo aircraft—and includes 12 full flight simulator (FFS) bays, six fixed training devices (FTDs), as well as office and training room space. Building H was designed to accommodate both current and future Good Manufacturing Practice (cGMP/fGMP) standards, further enhancing the functionality and future-readiness of United’s training operations.
