I purchased my aircraft in another state. What is the tax treatment for this type of transaction?

Assuming it was not a casual sale, an aircraft purchased in another state is still subject to Ohio use tax.  To determine the use tax liability, multiply the purchase price of the aircraft by the tax rate in effect in the Ohio county where the aircraft was hangared when brought into Ohio.  From that amount, subtract the tax paid to the other state to arrive at the use tax due to Ohio.
