Turboprop East expanding Citation maintenance

Turboprop East, a 25-year-old North Adams, Mass. repair facility specializing in King Air maintenance, is planning to expand its services to a wider range of Cessna Citations. The company said about 5 percent of its business comes from small jets, mostly the Citation 500 series, but it “is seeking to expand that service and market to include a wider range of Citations,” noted company president Jean Cahoon. To this end, it has sent a technician for Citation maintenance training with “plans to send two more for training soon.”
