Expanding Tamarack adds space, staff and Oxford centre
An expansion at Sandpoint comes on the heels of the newly-announced Tamarack European installation centre at the Jet Maintenance International facility in London Oxford airport, UK, which opened for operations in July.

Tamarack Aerospace Group, the developer of the the Atlas Active Winglet, is expanding its operations in Sandpoint, Idaho. The company has tripled its existing office space in addition to acquiring a third hangar in its facility complex. The recent expansion is part of a larger plan to accommodate continued growth for the Tamarack team as it expands R&D efforts with an eye to future applications and sales for its Active Winglet technology.

President Jacob Klinginsmith comments: “We're in a hiring phase now and as we close out 2020, we expect to add even more to the team as our sales numbers continue to steadily grow and new projects come online late this year and early next year.” Tamarack is currently recruiting for five sales and engineering positions, with expectations to fill five additional roles, primarily engineering, before the end of the year.

This expansion comes on the heels of the newly announced Tamarack European installation centre at the Jet Maintenance International facility in London Oxford airport, UK, which opened for operations in July. The Tamarack European installation centre functions seven days per week to expedite Active Winglet installations and reduce supply-chain lead times, as well as supplement sales and marketing efforts in the European region. Founder and CEO Nick Guida concludes: “We've been focused on rebuilding our team this year, which is the core of our business, along with our outstanding customer community. Now we've reached a point where we are outgrowing our space, so the added offices and hangar allows us to keep growing.”
