I just watched the last council meeting and saw Dave Duritsch and a Mr. Wolf talking about a new business moving to the airport. Sounds wonderful if true. Anyone have anymore info?

This is the Start Skydiving group. They were originally based in Indiana. They originally wanted to move to Middletown from Indiana, but couldn't work out a deal with the airport and moved instead to Lebanon.
I believe this could potentally be a good deal. If they are going to train military specialty jumpers this will mean more military aircraft and fuel sales, etc. The military has already started cross-country chopper refuels at the airport. Lodging for the military? Don't know.
One company was supposed to start refurbishing Boeing 737's the beginning of this year at the airport. This was put on hold when the economy tanked. Don't know the status on this.

Do you know if the Start Skydiving group will be leaving Lebanon, or is this just another branch of their company? |

Oh, well if it's Team Fast Trax and not the Start Skydiving group then my question would be irrelevant wouldn't it? :-)

Adam...swohio75 & jag123 are correct. Team Fastrax uses the Start Skydiving planes of which there were 3 last I knew.
I wasn't very clear.
