The arrival of a new fixed base operator at the Ken Jernstedt Airfield is bringing changes to the Port of Hood River’s airport.  The new FBO is TachAero, and Port Executive Director Michael McElwee says the effort is to create an aggregation of activities around the business and flight training, with the firm entering into agreements with various airplane manufactures to make the airport a venue for purchasers to train on their new plane.  McElwee says the wind and terrain in the region create a good environment for flight training, giving students experience in a number of situations.  He added the new operator has already bought some new planes and installed a flight simulator.
