Aurora's two buildings at the North Central West Virginia Airport comprise more than 100,000 square feet of precision aerospace component production capability.

Building One is a 65,000 square foot facility used for fabrication and assembly of composites and metal aerostructures. The building houses a machine shop, welding shop, a heat treat furnace, paint booth, assembly areas, a 2,000 square foot clean room and metal processing. The facility produces components for several aircraft including the E2-C Hawkeye, EA-6B Prowler, CH-53K helicopter, MH-60R Seahawk helicopter, and both the RQ-4A and RQ-4B versions of the Global Hawk.

The recently completed Building Two was designed as a showcase for lean aerospace manufacturing techniques and technologies. The 40,000 square foot composites manufacturing facility contains two 10,000 square foot class 100,000 clean rooms for composite lay-up and assembly, two dual head Virtek laser ply location stations, a 24 foot automated Gerber ply cutter, two autoclaves, a reconfigurable shop floor and conference facilities.
