West Star Aviation’s maintenance center in Chattanooga, Tennessee, has expanded its Embraer Executive Jets portfolio after being named an authorized service center for the Lineage 1000 and 1000E, joining the company’s East Alton, Illinois facility in that authorization. West Star provides factory-approved base services on the Phenom 100 and 300, as well as the airframer’s Legacy family at Chattanooga, East Alton, and Grand Junction, Colorado locations.

Additional capabilities include avionics repair and installation and engine inspections, Service Bulletin installation and compliance, cabin redesign and refurbishment, and exterior paint services.

“We are pleased to be able to add the Embraer Lineage 1000/1000E to our Embraer authorization at our Chattanooga facility,” said Steve Goede, the location’s general manager. “We will continue to expand our capabilities scope to ensure we provide our customers the quality service they deserve at each of our locations.”
