Aviation engineers and civic leaders marked the structural topping-out of Boom Supersonic’s Overture Superfactory on the grounds of Piedmont Triad International Airport.

The 62-acre campus will produce next-generation commercial passenger airliners designed to travel at Mach 1.7 on 100% sustainable aviation fuel. The project is projected to create 1,750 aviation manufacturing jobs across Guilford and Forsyth counties.
