Duncan Aviation has bolstered its component repair and overhaul services by appointing five new technical representatives. This move aims to meet the growing demand for advanced technical support and training in accessories, avionics, and instrument services. The new tech reps will play a pivotal role in advising, teaching, and supporting various stakeholders.
Duncan has made concerted efforts over the past three years to upgrade its component services division significantly, according to the company. It secured exclusive support for numerous OEM avionics and accessories units, enhancing its repair and exchange capabilities such as managing quotes, AOG events, technical support, warranty claims, and maintenance contracts.
Each tech rep is responsible for identifying essential test sets, tooling, and training requirements. Among the appointees, avionics instruments tech rep Jarrod Bovard specializes in weather radar, HSI, and flight director indicators. Accessories tech rep Josh Hull focuses on landing gear and hydraulics, contributing to the development of additional capabilities in the company's accessories shop in Provo, Utah.
Steve Krings brings 41 years of experience in troubleshooting aircraft autopilot instruments to his role as an avionics tech rep. Scott Samuelson, another avionics tech rep with 38 years at Duncan Aviation, plays a key role in recruiting component technicians. With more than 28 years of experience on the NavCom and APT teams, Rod Walther is an expert in FMS, HF, ELT, DME, transponder, and audio.
