Duncan Aviation officially adds Charlotte, NC, to its mobile engine Rapid Response Team (RRT) network. Operators in the southeast Atlantic region now have more convenient access to Duncan Aviation services, like engine AOG and most scheduled and unscheduled events, including engine changes.

Duncan Aviation delivers a Gulfstream G550 that was transformed with a full interior refurbishment and avionics upgrades. The customer wanted to refresh the dated aircraft with a sleek, new look, and so the Duncan Aviation Interior and Design teams incorporated modern styling cues, modifying the seat design and handrails and adding high-contrast materials.

Duncan Aviation announces that three of its satellite avionics facilities are now offering tool calibration services for torque wrenches, multimeters, crimpers and other tools used in aviation maintenance. The equipment that provides the capabilities will rotate between Duncan's Satellite Shops several times a year, and as more technicians throughout the Duncan Aviation satellite network are trained, more satellite facilities will offer the tool-calibration service.

To ensure Duncan Aviation’s customers are well-informed when it comes to the Federal Aviation Administration’s (FAA’s) NextGen mandates and guidelines, several of the company’s avionics experts have updated its Straight Talk book on the NextGen initiative for datalink.

In response to customers’ growing needs for Falcon airframe support, Duncan Aviation adds a new technical position at its Lincoln, NE, headquarters. John Spevak has been tapped as a Falcon airframe tech rep, providing troubleshooting and technical support to Falcon customers and Duncan Aviation airframe maintenance teams.

Duncan Aviation announces that Robert Suarez has joined the Duncan Aviation Aircraft Sales & Acquisitions team as market research analyst. Suarez’s responsibilities include tracking Duncan Aviation core aircraft markets, creating marketing campaigns, and assisting in the consignment, acquisition and sale of aircraft.

Duncan Aviation’s Component Services customer account team grew by nearly 25% in the first quarter of 2021. Account reps are now located in Florida, Michigan, Nebraska and Utah.

Duncan Aviation announces that the MRO has installed a Bongiovi AcousticLabs Bongiovi Aviation system in a Dassault Falcon 7X aircraft at its full-service facility in Battle Creek, MI. The state-of-the-art audio system is able to overcome a noisy cabin environment and reproduce high-fidelity audio.

Duncan Aviation celebrates the delivery of a Challenger 604 newly equipped with the Collins Aerospace Pro Line Fusion. The avionics installation team at the company’s full-service facility in Battle Creek, MI, installed the scalable, fully connected, integrated avionics system with advanced situational awareness and intuitive decision-making tools. Featuring touch-control primary flight displays, heads-up vision systems, and weather-threat detection systems, the advanced system allows pilots to fly with greater precision.

Since 2015, Duncan Aviation’s Turbine Engine Services has gained Honeywell TFE731 Heavy and HTF7000 Minor authorizations and brought a 20,000 lb.-thrust-class test cell online. New capabilities, increased efficiencies, and expanded room are now adding support to these larger engine and maintenance events.
