Textron Aviation said today it has acquired Mistequay Group, a Saginaw, Michigan-based supplier of components for aerospace and defense OEMs that specializes in ball screw assemblies, gear systems, and actuator components. Under the Wichita-based OEM, Mistequay will operate as AeroMotion by Textron Aviation and integrated into the Beechcraft and Cessna airframer’s global operations function.

Financial terms of the transaction were not disclosed. The company’s 130-employee workforce will be retained at its Saginaw and Monroe, Washington facilities. AeroMotion will expand Textron Aviation’s internal capabilities and key component technologies and engineering support of its Citation product line.

“I’m thrilled to have the employees from Mistequay join the Textron Aviation team,” said Textron Aviation senior v-p of operations Brad White. “By working collaboratively, we will create growth opportunities and offer value that benefits our workforce and the customers we support each day.”
