Butner, N.C. — A company that makes parts for civilian and military aerospace firms plans to expand its Granville County plant, creating 126 jobs, officials said Friday.

Ontic Engineering and Manufacturing Inc. will invest $2.7 million in the Butner facility, officials said.

"We continue to be impressed with abilities and performance of our team here in Butner and look forward to aggressively growing our business here with additional investments in people, factory infrastructure and intellectual property," Gareth Hall, president and managing director of Ontic, said in a statement.

Ontic has plants in the U.S., Europe and Asia to produce a portfolio of more than 6,500 older aircraft parts that have been licensed or acquired from major manufacturers, such as Honeywell, UTC Aerospace, Safran, Curtiss-Wright, GE Aviation and Thales.

The average salaries of the new positions could reach $55,149, officials said, higher than Granville County's average salary of $40,932.

There are millions of job openings all over the place. The submarine shipyards are in the process of replacing almost all of their retiring workforce. This talk of recession is just a ploy to damage Trump in the election.

All this interesting stuff is never close to me in the SC midlands.

For many reasons (all very good and beneficial), moving elsewhere isn’t practical.

After the last big move a couple of years ago, I figure if I ever do it again, I will put up a bunch of signs to get rid of everything except what I can put in the back of a truck.
