Dowagiac not chosen as space command center site [Dowagiac Daily News, Mich.]
Jan. 29 DOWAGIAC Dowagiac has not been cleared for takeoff.
The Michigan Aerospace Manufacturers Association has selected the location for its new space command center and it is not Dowagiac, though the city had remained in the running for the majority of the group’s decision process.
In a Thursday press release, MAMA announced the selection of Chippewa County in the state’s Upper Peninsula as the site of its new command and control center.
MAMA is a member-supported organization that serves the interests of Michigan’s aerospace and defense manufacturing firms with a single unified voice, promoting the state of Michigan’s aerospace and defense manufacturing community within the global industry.
