Quite an article

(actually multiple articles) in the Puget Sound Business Journal, very bullish on the growing aerospace core at the Port of Moses Lake, led by Aero-TEC's flight testing business.

I won't reprint the entire article but here are a couple snippets:

The airport and city [Moses Lake] of about 24,000 people welcomed more than $1 billion in new investments and economic spinoffs last year, according to a study by the Washington State Department of Transportation. In recent years, a slew of aerospace companies have flocked to Moses Lake, transforming the city and its uniquely situated airport into a booming aerospace oasis.

Among the new workers in the area is Theo Jones, a contractor who does flight simulator work for Mitsubishi. 

“What’s going on here is a big deal,” Jones said. 

“There are people in this town that don’t know we're building and testing aircraft here,” Jones said. “It needs to be shared.”
