Western Aircraft Selects BPC for Alaska Pilatus Support

Western Aircraft named Blackhawk Performance Center (BPC)-Alaska as an authorized satellite service center supporting Pilatus aircraft throughout Alaska. The designation enables BPC-Alaska to provide factory-authorized PC-12 inspections, scheduled maintenance, and warranty support through the Western Aircraft Pilatus service network.

“Selecting qualified service partners is an important part of our responsibility to the Pilatus community,” noted Phil Winters, v-p of aircraft sales, aircraft management, and charter at Western Aircraft. “BPC-Alaska has demonstrated the experience, technical expertise, and commitment to quality that led to this designation.”

Western Aircraft said the addition to the satellite network strengthens its factory-authorized maintenance throughout its territory. Based in Wasilla, BPC-Alaska has provided support for Pilatus aircraft for more than five years.

Formerly Silver Sky Aviation, BPC-Alaska joined the Blackhawk Group in January. In addition to its Wasilla location, Blackhawk’s BPC network includes facilities in Columbia, Missouri; Broomfield, Colorado; Glendale, Arizona; and Bournemouth International Airport (EGHH) in the United Kingdom. BPCs provide specialized support for turbine and high-end piston aircraft.

Along with Pilatus, Western Aircraft—a Greenwich AeroGroup company—is an authorized center for Dassault Falcon, Embraer Executive Jets, and Piper Aircraft, among others.
