Short History of Saint MarieToday the facility is largely unused and is sometimes referred to as Glasgow Industrial Airport and is used as a test site by Boeing Aircraft Designs. The former on base housing areas are now the town of St. Marie, Montana. The 2000 U.S. Census measured the population of St. Marie at 183 in 59 families. When the Air Force Base was decommissioned, the housing was purchased and offered for sale to private individuals. The Boeing Company continues to own most of the former Glasgow AFB now known as the Boeing Glasgow Flight Test Facility. The facility supports Boeing Technology Services (BTS) customers and is maintained and operated by Montana Aviation Research Company (MARCO), a subsidiary of The Boeing Company.
