In 2008, ExelTech Aerospace built this built this 150,000 sq ft. hangar and office building southeast of the button of Runway 24E at Montréal - Trudeau Airport (YUL) for its aircraft maintenance business. A unique aspect of the design is that it was the largest wooden hangar constructed in Canada in decades, featuring glued-laminated timber beams and columns and underlying glued-laminated timber beams. ExelTech went bankrupt in 2010 and in June of that year Bombardier bought the facility to increase its completion center capabilities for its Global 5000 and Global Express XRS business jets.
