Tempus Aircraft Sales & Service, the U.S. Southwest sales distributor and service provider for Pilatus Aircraft, is opening a new Pilatus-authorized service center at the Scottsdale (Ariz.) Municipal Airport on November 1. The 22,000-sq-ft facility, subleased from Signature Flight Support, will offer “extensive” aircraft service for all Pilatus aircraft, including service appointments. Previously, Landmark Aviation operated as an authorized Pilatus satellite service center for the region.

“As a leader in aviation and an expert in Pilatus aircraft, we look forward to building a closer relationship with our customer base and being a service provider that aircraft owners can trust,” said Tempus CEO Jack Gulbin. The Scottsdale facility will be Tempus’ second Pilatus-authorized service center—the other is at Denver Centennial Airport—in addition to four contract satellite service centers it oversees in Santa Ana, Calif., and Houston, McAllen and Denton, Texas.

Meanwhile, Tempus is making over its Denver Centennial headquarters facility to accommodate sales and service activity for the Pilatus PC-24 twinjet, which is scheduled to enter service in 2017.
