North Carolina economists\nestimate that the full Boom manufacturing program will grow the state&#8217;s economy\nby at least $32.3 billion over 20 years. In addition to Boom&#8217;s job creation in\nthe state, the company is creating over 200 internships for students in North\nCarolina public universities, community colleges, and trade schools to build\nthe next generation of supersonic workers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Building on our legacy of &#8216;First in Flight,&#8217; North\nCarolina is ready to partner with Boom Supersonic in leading the way to a fast\nand clean aviation future,&#8221; North Carolina Governor Roy Cooper said.\n&#8220;Our economy is taking flight with a talented workforce and strong\ninfrastructure ready for these new, good-paying jobs in innovation and\naerospace.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignright is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/boom-overture-airliner-hero2-edit-2-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-24672\" width=\"285\" height=\"189\" srcset=\"https:\/\/stateaviationjournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/boom-overture-airliner-hero2-edit-2-1.jpg 600w, https:\/\/stateaviationjournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/boom-overture-airliner-hero2-edit-2-1-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 285px) 100vw, 285px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Boom selected North Carolina as the site for Overture\naircraft manufacturing because of its large skilled talent pool, access to\nexceptional universities, community colleges, and technical schools, proximity\nto the Eastern Seaboard for supersonic flight testing over water and close\nproximity to several top-tier aerospace suppliers. North Carolina&#8217;s aerospace\nmanufacturing sector has grown three-times faster than the national average\nover the past few years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s an exciting time to live in North Carolina and\nsee the influx of innovative companies establish roots in our state.
