The Atlantic County Economic Alliance is working with Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University and the U.S. Air Force 305th Maintenance Group of Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst to bring to fruition the Aviation Training Academy of the Future, which will neighbor the William J. Hughes FAA Technical Center, the Atlantic City International Airport, and the National Aerospace Research & Technology Park.
Representatives of Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University, the Atlantic County Economic Alliance from New Jersey, the U.S. Air Force, and the National Aerospace Research & Technology Park gather to finalize a memorandum of understanding to conceive and build the Aviation Academy of the Future at the NARTP’s first building in December of 2021.
“By bringing this world-class, leading-edge aviation training academy to Atlantic County, we are joining forces with some true ‘heavyweights’ to broaden and diversify our regional economy,” said Lauren H. Moore, President of the ACEA. “At the same time, we are adding another critical component to our Aviation Innovation Hub, as the Aviation Academy of the Future will be neighbors with the William J. Hughes FAA Technical Center, the Atlantic City International Airport (ACY), and the National Aerospace Research & Technology Park.”
