Business aircraft charter, management, and sales company Pinnacle Aviation has acquired Part 145 repair station Aviation One. The purchase enables Scottsdale (Arizona) Airport-based Pinnacle Aviation to expand into retail maintenance and offer mobile repair services. Aviation One's 25,000-sq-ft hangar at nearby Falcon Field Airport in Mesa, Arizona, will be retained but has been rebranded as Pinnacle Aviation Maintenance.
According to Pinnacle Aviation, adding mobile maintenance will enable the provision of AOG services in the Southwest U.S. The expanded retail maintenance capability covers service for owners and operators of business aircraft manufactured by Beechcraft, Bombardier, Cessna, Embraer, Dassault Falcon, and Gulfstream, among others.
Maintenance capabilities include phase checks, pre-purchase inspections, annual inspections, line maintenance, structural repair, and avionics troubleshooting. To accommodate growth in its maintenance business, Pinnacle Aviation is hiring A&P and avionics technicians.
“The addition of the Part 145 certificate and facility is a strategic investment in the future of Pinnacle Aviation,” said Curt Pavlicek, founder and president of Pinnacle Aviation. “We’re now equipped to serve not only our managed fleet but also aircraft owners across the region who are looking for a maintenance partner they can trust. This move broadens our capabilities and further reinforces our commitment to delivering exceptional service at every level.”
