A major new development is getting off the ground in a Nottinghamshire town. Construction of the £15.4million headquarters for Newark's new Air and Space Institute (ASI) is currently underway, with the work being carried out by GF Tomlinson on the old Cattle Market site.
Once the ASI is complete, students will be able to gain level three qualifications in the world-class facility, which will be home to an aircraft for trainee engineers to work on. Students on the pilot pathway will also be able to fly an ASI aircraft out of Nottingham Aerodrome.
The institute is run by the Lincoln College Group. While the headquarters are being built, current students are undergoing flight, groundcrew and engineer training at Newark College as an interim facility.
