Duncan Aviation Opens Expanded Turbine Engine Shop

Duncan Aviation inaugurated an expanded turbine engine overhaul shop at its Lincoln, Nebraska headquarters during an event late last week attended by Duncan leaders, state and local government dignitaries, airport officials, and construction partners. VIP attendees received a limited-edition challenge coin commemorating Duncan Aviation’s 70th anniversary, depicting the four generations of the Duncan family involved in the company.

The facility adds to Duncan Aviation’s engine overhaul capabilities, especially related to the company’s Pratt & Whitney Canada-designated overhaul facility status.

“This facility represents a significant investment in our future,” said chairman Todd Duncan. “It expands our capabilities, strengthens our engine service offerings, and positions us to better serve customers from across the country and around the world. Strong businesses need strong communities, and strong communities benefit from thriving businesses.”

Among the attendees were Lincoln mayor Leirion Baird, Lincoln Airport Authority leaders Michael Griffin and Chad Neuhalfen, and Nebraska legislative senators Carolyn Bosn and Jason Prokop, as well as Duncan Aviation’s senior management team and representatives from the project’s key construction and engineering partners, including Hausmann Construction, Commonwealth Electric, and Rasmussen Air and Gas Energy.
