C&amp;L Aerospace has bought two Cessna Citation Sovereigns and two Citation XLSs for teardown, the Bangor, Maine-based MRO provider said Monday. C&amp;L has started the disassembly of two of the aircraft following the teardown of the first two in Bangor.
“With these aircraft, we are launching a tip-to-tail parts program for Sovereign and XLS operators,” said Chris Kilgour, CEO of C&amp;L Aviation Group. “We recognize the scarcity in the market for these particular aircraft parts, so we are making investments now and in the future to be a reliable partner for those looking to source parts in the aftermarket.”
C&amp;L said it plans to purchase and disassemble several more Sovereigns and XLSs over the next several years.
The parts will undergo inspection and be readied for sale. The process includes photographing and barcoding each part and its corresponding documentation before sending them as viewable links on all customer quotes, promoting more transparency during the buying process.

News and issues about aviation maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO), covering all segments of the aviation industry; and modifications for aircraft and engines.
