Aerotest Nearly Done With Transfer of Operations
- Share via
Aerotest Inc., an Irvine aircraft testing and design firm, said it has nearly completed the move of its Mojave Airport operations to the Santa Barbara Airport.
The transfer from Mojave, where the company maintained and retrofitted transport aircraft, began in December, said Jonathan Bromberg, Aerotest’s vice president of administration. Aerotest has more than 200 employees at Santa Barbara and plans to add more, Bromberg said. Only a few workers remain at Mojave, he said.
The Mojave Airport has gained fame in recent years as one of the world’s largest storage facilities for idled commercial airplanes. Aerotest performed maintenance and repair work on many of the planes stored there.
Bromberg would not say why Aerotest made the move.
