Business aircraft maintenance provider Duncan Aviation is using the 2022 MEBAA Show this week as a platform to meet with current and past clients and “to evaluate and explore possible opportunities in the future and to share our brand image, which is synonymous with high-quality work, responsive customer service, and a wide range of capabilities within the region.” While it is one of the larger independent MROs in the U.S, the Lincoln, Nebraska-based company has forged business relationships with business aircraft owners and operators in the Middle East over several years.
Phil Suglia, Duncan sales manager, told AIN that the company (Stand 855) holds certifications and authorizations to perform work from 13 aviation regulators, including authorities in India and the United Arab Emirates. In the U.S., Duncan operates full-service maintenance facilities in Lincoln; Battle Creek, Michigan; and Provo, Utah, as well as more than 25 satellite locations.
“These facilities perform high-quality, nose-to-tail services on the most popular business aircraft in flight today,” he said. “We consistently work with business aircraft management companies and owner/operators from the Middle East and North Africa region.”
The company’s capabilities include major and minor airframe inspections, engine maintenance, major retrofits for cabin and cockpit avionics systems, full paint and interior services, engineering and certification services, fabrication and manufacturing services, and preowned aircraft sales and acquisitions.
Duncan’s aircraft sales and acquisitions department regularly works with MEBAA-member clients, as does its parts and rotables support division, which provides parts and components to operators worldwide. “Duncan Aviation does regularly provide support for Middle East maintenance providers, developing relationships and brand recognition to support their clients with the more intensive inspections and MRO projects that cannot be serviced regionally and that would require relocation of an aircraft to Duncan Aviation facilities in the United States,” Suglia said.
