Hopes Canterbury's aerospace sector will continue going from strength to strength, with a permanent test flight space confirmed at Tawhaki.
The National Aerospace centre, west of Banks Peninsula, can now hold tests without continual re-permits.
Tāwhaki executive director John Holt told Heather du Plessis-Allan this helps remove red tape and paperwork, adding that it's difficult in the early construction stages, to find a safe aircraft testing place.
The sector now aims to boost its economic value from 250 million in 2023, to one billion dollars a year.
