Content | Tinker is the largest repair facility for aircraft in the Department of Defense and is the largest logistics center. Aircraft maintenance accounts for roughly 5 percent or $52.7 billion of total defense spending. Oklahoma is poised to be the leading edge on this technology. Currently there are many training and education efforts in Oklahoma but there is not a strategy to integrate these efforts to meet the demands of our growing state, national and international aerospace industry. The development of a “center of excellence” in Oklahoma for workforce and leadership training, education and research and development could meet the demands of the growing industry.
