Legacy parts specialist Ontic appointed Transaero its authorized parts distributor for its line of Hamilton Sundstrand jet fuel control products. These items include a variety of hydro-mechanical controls for the T64, T56, T55, JT3D and JT4 engines.
GE Aviation’s T64 turboshaft powers the CH-53 Sea Stallion helicopter and the Lycoming T55 is on the CH-47 Chinook. The other engines covered by the new agreement power fixed-wing military aircraft, including the B-52, the E3 Sentry, U-2 and Boeing 707.
Ontic, which is part of the BBA Aviation group (Booth 4356), focuses on “extended life solutions” for aerospace parts that are no longer in production with their OEMs. Its 4,500-plus products are covered by approvals from the FAA, as well as EASA and authorities in China and Singapore.
Transaero will carry significant volumes of Ontic’s inventory. It has nine offices around the world and a 24/7 AOG hotline.
