Able Adds Bearing Inspection Service for Bell
Initially for the Bell 206 and 407 models, the Arizona-based MRO provider plans to add more lines.

Component and MRO services provider Able Aerospace announced it has launched a new Level 1 bearing inspection and Level 2 overhaul and repair service line for Bell’s 206 and 407 models, with more aircraft to be added in the coming months. “Able prides itself on being a one-stop, value-add solution for its customers,” said company vice president John Jackson. “We have years of experience in the bearing arena, so formalizing this service for our market at large is a worthy next step.”

The Mesa, Ariz.-based company has also expanded its global business division, naming industry veteran Bob Boggan as vice president of international sales. Able, which currently has more than 450 employees, offers FAA-approved component repair, overhaul and replacement parts to commercial and military operators in more than 50 countries.
