Former JSX chief operating officer Suresh Narayanan has launched a business jet and military aircraft maintenance outfit called Jets MRO, the startup said yesterday. Expected to start operations next month, Jets MRO will occupy a 40,000-sq-ft facility at Dallas Executive Airport (KRBD) leased from Jet Access, a charter and management company that is developing a private aviation complex at KRBD.
Jets MRO said it based its decision to operate at Dallas Executive on the "significant investment" that Jet Access has committed to development of the 80,000-sq-ft complex, including an FBO, office space, and MRO hangar capacity. Along with Jet Access, Jets MRO will become an anchor business on the airfield, which is the closest in the area to downtown Dallas. Meanwhile, the company will also support aircraft at Dallas Love Field and throughout the surrounding Dallas-Fort Worth service area.
Jets MRO promotes what it calls an "employees-first ethic," which is based on financial transparency, highly subsidized family benefits, and a focus on corporate culture.
“Although Jets MRO is an aviation maintenance business, it's about the people, too,” said the company. “Jets MRO will drive significant economic impact to the South Dallas community while creating many jobs in the region.”
