Redbird Flight Simulations, a leading flight training technology company, selected a new 50,000 square foot facility in Kyle as the site of its latest business expansion. The company will invest an initial $2.2 million at the facility and bring 71 full-time jobs to the region, with expected wages above the county’s average.

“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.”

The announcement became official during Tuesday’s Hays County Commissioners Court session, which approved a performance-based grant agreement with the company. The City of Kyle also entered into a performance-based agreement with the company during a city council meeting on Monday.

Construction for the company’s facility, set for completion by mid-Summer 2022, is already underway. The company is currently planning to fill 59 initial positions at all levels, ranging from senior management to production team members.

“Redbird Flight Simulations is yet another example of how the region’s continued economic strength and unified vision attract new business, new industries, and quality jobs to the Texas Innovation Corridor,” said Jason Giulietti, president of the Greater San Marcos Partnership.
