Yingling Completes Largest Project Yet with G550 Work

Yingling Aviation continues to build on its large-cabin MRO business, completing its first 192-month inspection on a Gulfstream G550. The project was its largest completed to date, marking a significant milestone for the 80-year-old Wichita MRO that, in recent years, has been expanding beyond its historical business of lighter aircraft maintenance and support.

The heavy maintenance inspection involved extensive work that came in tandem with a comprehensive refurbishment, including full soft goods replacement, veneer refresh, and avionics upgrades. Yingling added that the project involved close collaboration across multiple teams, with all parties expressing “high satisfaction” with the outcome.

“This project demanded an exceptional level of communication, teamwork, and technical expertise,” said Vinnie Venditto, executive v-p and general manager. “Our team truly came together and demonstrated the depth of talent and experience we have at Yingling. Completing a project of this scale represents a major achievement for our organization.”
