The Move

Originally located in Pryor, Oklahoma, TACOR relocated to the Dallas/Ft Worth area in 2002 after the events of 9/11 forever changed the face of our business. The organization’s ownership was converted to new leadership and management with a revised business plan. Now, more than ever, was the time to exercise cost cutting measures. Basically, we kept our reputation but started over with a new location, new employees and a new focus.

The Expansion

With continued success and a budding reputation in the aviation community, TACOR purchased and moved into a new facility that allowed for continued growth and expansion. We were now able to operate out of a 10,000 sq. ft. building that incorporates our capabilities in a much more efficient manner. The new shop allowed for dedicated space for each function of our business and streamlined the flow of our work processes.
