    From AC/DC to Aerospace: Why Mountain Home, Idaho Could Shape the Future of Inland Northwest Manufacturing

    What does AC/DC have to do with aerospace manufacturing in Idaho? In this episode of The Gordie Tamayo Show, host Gordie Tamayo sits down with Dale King (Economic Development Director for the City of Mountain Home) and Dean Cameron (CEO of Top Drawer Media and publisher of Northwest Aerospace News) to explore why the Inland Northwest, and especially Mountain Home, Idaho, may play a growing role in the future of aerospace manufacturing. Dean shares the story of spinning one of the first AC/DC demo records in Spokane in 1977 before transitioning into decades inside the aerospace supply chain. Dale explains how Mountain Home’s workforce, infrastructure, and proximity to regional innovation hubs position the community for advanced manufacturing growth. Together, they unpack: • Why aerospace manufacturing is expanding beyond Seattle • How Mountain Home’s workforce pipeline supports aviation and advanced manufacturing • The role of education, trade media, and regional collaboration in building supplier ecosystems • Opportunities for machinists, students, and manufacturers across Idaho • Why the Inland Northwest aerospace corridor is gaining national attention If you’re interested in the future of manufacturing in Idaho, workforce development, aviation careers, or regional economic growth, this conversation offers a powerful look at what may be coming next.
