Grand Junction, Colo.-based West Star Aviation delivered its 500th Pilatus PC-12 exterior paint project. The aircraft was delivered to Pilatus during a commemoration ceremony held June 18.


“We painted our first Pilatus PC-12 in Grand Junction in 1994, so to be celebrating our 500th aircraft for Pilatus is very exciting,” said Dave Krogman, general manager of the Grand Junction facility. “Pilatus has been a long-time partner of West Star and we want to thank them for their continued support with this special ceremony. We are looking forward to continuing our longstanding relationship and completing the next 500 aircraft.”


In addition to its Grand Junction maintenance facility, West Star Aviation has facilities in East Alton, Ill., and Columbia, S.C. The MRO also runs the maintenance operations at Aspen-Pitkin County Airport in Aspen, Colo.; Spirit of St. Louis Airport in Chesterfield, Mo.; and Chicago Executive Airport.
