Friday, 18 October 2024

Hillwood and Alliance Aviation Services welcome AVX Aircraft Company, a pioneering aerospace corporation specializing in advanced vertical lift technology solutions, to Perot Field Fort Worth Alliance Airport. AVX's decision to establish its headquarters at this strategic location marks a significant commitment to advance innovation and growth in the aviation industry in Hillwood’s AllianceTexas development.

AVX Aircraft Company brings a team of 40 engineers and professionals dedicated to expanding and testing unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) for military and commercial applications. With its new 14,000-square-foot office space and 7,000-square-foot of prototyping and testing space, AVX is poised to accelerate its efforts in advancing vertical lift technology. Moreover, AVX anticipates doubling its workforce within the next year, further solidifying its commitment to drive progress and innovation in the aerospace sector.

“Over the past 18 years, our focus has been on innovative design, and our new headquarters and prototyping shop will give us a competitive edge as we advance technology in our industry,” said AVX President Kendall Goodman. “Our team of highly trained engineers, aviation professionals and former military personnel feel right at home at this aerospace and technology hub that Perot Field provides.”

North Texas has long been synonymous with aviation and aerospace excellence, with major industry players such as Lockheed Martin Aeronautics, Bell Textron, American Airlines, Southwest Airlines and Boeing's Global Services all calling Dallas-Fort Worth home. AllianceTexas, a 27,000-acre master-planned development, is also a hub for next-generation initiatives like the Mobility Innovation Zone (MIZ), which provides a robust ecosystem for mobility visionaries to scale and commercialize new technologies.

"AVX's focus on advancement in the aerospace sector makes it the perfect customer to establish a presence at Perot Field Fort Worth Alliance Airport and the AllianceTexas Mobility Innovation Zone," said Bill Burton, executive vice president of marketing and development at Hillwood. "We're excited to see how they evolve mobility technology in North Texas."

The 13901 Aviator Way building offers Class A office and hangar space for lease with a private, secure tenant entry and direct ramp access. The building also features a recently renovated Fixed Base Operation (FBO), providing upgraded facilities and convenience.
