Atlanta-based Precision Aviation Group (PAG) announced yesterday that it will expand its avionics and designated engineering representative expertise and add manufacturing capabilities through the acquisition of Velocity Aerospace Group.

Based in Frisco, Texas, Velocity operates FAA repair stations in Burbank and Van Nuys, California, and Fort Lauderdale, Florida. The company specializes in avionics, cockpit panels, electrical systems, fire protection, interior lights, multi-layer circuit board assemblies, and waste assemblies for commercial and business aviation customers, regional airlines, and helicopter operators. Velocity employs 140 people, performs more than 25,000 annual repairs, and operates from a combined 110,000 sq ft of facilities.

“With the Burbank and Van Nuys facilities added to our existing operations in Long Beach and Camarillo, as well as the new facility in Fort Lauderdale, we now have next-generation avionics MRO centers of excellence in Southern California and South Florida that allows us to better serve our customers,” said PAG president and CEO David Mast.
