COLUMBUS, OHIO – Two international leaders in flight – Ohio-based companies NetJets and FlightSafety International (FSI) – jointly announced a six-figure commitment to the non-profit Ohio Air & Space Hall of Fame and Learning Center (OAS) through an investment totaling $225,000. This is the first investment of its type.
OAS is in the middle of a multi-phase, multi-million-dollar fundraising campaign to renovate the original Port Columbus airport terminal and tower into its home. The joint gift from NetJets and FSI will be used to unlock $550,000 with a state matching grant, allowing OAS to begin construction on phase one of its plan. The 12,000-square-foot, three-story structure, dedicated in 1929 and on the National Register of Historic Places, is located on the southeast corner of what is now John Glenn International Airport (CMH).
