Industry in Midland, Texas, is booming as can be read in publication after publication. Petroleum production and all things in between are prevalent in the area, but Midland is making great efforts and success in diversifying into additional industries such as aerospace. XCOR, a company out of California, will soon be establishing their R&D Headquarters on the flight line at Midland International Airport (MAF) following the completion of a licensing process through the FFA for a Commercial Space Launch Site designation.
