Flight training technology company to expand to Kyle

A leading flight training technology company will expand into Kyle, the Greater San Marcos Partnership announced Tuesday. 

Redbird Flight Simulations selected a new 50,000 square-foot facility at 301 Vista Ridge Drive in Kyle as the site of its expansion, where it will invest an initial $2.2 million and bring 71 full-time jobs to the region, GSMP said. 

"The Texas Innovation Corridor was the clear choice for our next expansion," said Todd Willinger, CEO of Redbird Flight Simulations. "We sought a location with a robust workforce, pro-business attitude, and a strong track record of supporting innovation and found that in the City of Kyle and Hays County."
