StandardAero Component Services has dedicated the company’s 30,000 ft² expansion of its component repair facility, located in Miami, Florida.
The additional working space and capital improvements included the installation of a state-of-the-art clean line, an additional vacuum furnace as well as water jet cleaning capabilities. As a result, the facility will be the largest provider of aerospace and aerospace-derivative combustor overhauls in North America.
Kerry O’Sullivan, StandardAero’s Chief Operating Officer and Rick Stine, President of StandardAero Components, Helicopters & Accessories, joined Diego Beltran, Vice President & General Manager of the company’s Miami facility, his leadership team and employees to dedicate the new expansion on October 25.
“Since becoming a part of the StandardAero family in 2017, we have enjoyed the support and resources that the company has brought to bear on our Miami operations,” said Beltran. “We are excited for our employees here as well as for our customers as we bring more and new work into our shop to meet the growing demands in the industry.”
The Miami location expansion complements StandardAero’s recent new building expansion at its Cincinnati facility and the company is still proceeding with another 30,000 ft² expansion at its Hillsboro, Ohio facility, which is expected to be completed by the end of this year.
