About Mojave Air and SpacePort
Mojave Air and SpacePort
Mojave Air and Space Port at Rutan Field is a dynamic hub, hosting over 60 companies engaged in flight development, light industrial activities, advanced aerospace design, flight testing, research, and heavy rail industrial manufacturing. As the world's premier flight test facility, Mojave Air and Space Port has emerged as the leading aerospace test center for commercial operations in North America.
The airport has seen more first flights and significant newsworthy flight activity than any other airport in the world over the past ten years. The commercial aircraft industry relies heavily on firms located at Mojave Airport for aircraft inspections, storage, and part-out. Many specialty firms at Mojave focus specifically on engine development, noise reduction technology, advanced cockpit display development, and major airframe design modifications.
Mojave Air and Space Port is also home to the National Test Pilot School (accredited in 2006), where more test pilots are educated than any other site in the world. Flight research activities include endo- and exo-atmospheric craft supporting private sector and government-funded projects. In 2004 Mojave Spaceport hosted the Ansari X Prize suborbital space flights.
With a precise development plan completed in 2006 along with three fence-to-fence environmental assessments adopted by the Kern County Board of Supervisors and Planning Department, Mojave Air and Space Port is poised for a bright future. The team of highly experienced business professionals is ready to review business interests and craft contracts for start-ups to large aerospace and industrial firms.
