Core entries
Federal labs, major universities, anchor manufacturers, and primary cluster organizations are reviewed at least once per quarter.
Pan, zoom, and click any cluster marker to see organizations indexed at that location. Midwest entries are the detailed index focus; other U.S. aerospace regions are national context and expansion targets.
Aerospace Index uses public-source review. Entries are included only when there is a source-checkable role in aerospace, aviation manufacturing, test infrastructure, supply chain, workforce, logistics, human systems, regulation, or regional aerospace ecosystem building.
Federal labs, major universities, anchor manufacturers, and primary cluster organizations are reviewed at least once per quarter.
National context clusters, smaller companies, and early-stage entries are reviewed at least twice per year or when a correction is submitted.
Entries may be marked source-checked, listed, or needs review. If a source becomes unavailable or outdated, the entry may be downgraded until rechecked.
