Talk:New Century AirCenter

This airport is also home to the Garmin International and Honeywell flight test facilities, as well as the annual Harold Neumann Barnstormer aerobatic contest hosted by the Kansas City Chapter of the International Aerobatic Club. Is this information worth adding? --Slippery Wing (talk) 21:04, 7 September 2008 (UTC)

I would say it is worth mentioning. I was at the restaurant in town and a gentleman was telling a younger pilot I would assume, about the event (KCCIAC), to which he was really interested and wasn't aware of such activities being held at this airport. I work at the airport and get a nice front row seat to the action, it is really neat, at least to me. Butler National, Avconn, Advanced Aviation, Dodson International are also off the field. Embarq has a huge building, not the World HQ, but being Embarq customer and have asked their representatives, they said it is one of their HQ's. Aeroflex also is on the field but more off New Century Parkway. There are some other notable businesses that help support this field and such. I don't know what extent people want to go to. Quest Diagnostics flies important laboratory freight from here everyday or at least during the week. There is a crane company, steel and pipe company, Danisco, a screen printing company, Kerry Foods, and military operations, such as the Chinook repair facility. Are some others I can remember off hand. Johnson County Correctional facility is also contained within the property lines of New Century Air Center. Some other military operations are present but transportation related. Not an organized reply, but I thought worth mentioning. The1who (talk) 08:53, 26 February 2009 (UTC)
