Precision Aviation Group (PAG) obtained Part 145 approval for its Australia facility from the Civil Aviation Service Authority (CASA) and European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA). By having CASA and EASA approval on the capabilities in Australia, our company is able to provide competitive pricing, improved turn times and ongoing reliability and technical support on starter generators and hydraulic components for both rotor- and fixed-wing customers," said Chris Slade, PAG’s director of operations.

According to Slade, having a Part 145 approved facility in Australia reduces aircraft downtime, improves response time and enables customers to leverage the full scope of PAG services locally in Australia, further lowering time and cost. The 10,000-sq-ft facility, located near Brisbane's Airport, allows PAG Australia's staff to provide sales, exchanges and MRO services to operators.
