Ontic, which has specialized in services and parts to extend the life of legacy aircraft, named Aviation Avionics & Instruments (AAIC) as an exclusive authorized repair station for its barometric product line in the U.S. Ontic selected AAIC for its background and knowledge of the product line, the company said.

“We believe that our partnership with AAIC will add value to our customers,” said Chris Muklevicz, Ontic’s head of sales for North America. “With AAIC’s expertise and knowledge of the product line, I am confident that AAIC will continue Ontic’s high caliber of service.”

Ontic, which has 46 years of aerospace product manufacturing and aftermarket experience, supports legacy products with its manufacturing and MRO facilities in Chatsworth, California; Creedmoor, North Carolina; Plainview, New York; Cheltenham, UK; and Singapore.

Founded in 1987, AAIC services equipment at its new 32,000-sq-ft facility in Freeport, New York, near JFK International Airport.
