Taking Flight in North Carolina

The Overture Superfactory will build on North Carolina’s distinguished history of aviation innovation, including the Wright Brothers flying the world’s first engine-powered airplane in Kitty Hawk in 1903. The supersonic airliner factory also positions the region to be an aerospace leader well into the future.
