U.S. maintenance, repair and overhaul provider C&amp;L Aerospace is adding business jets to its capability of disassembling end-of-life aircraft and recovering useful parts. The program starts with 13 Cessna Citations, including the Excel/XL/ XLS/XLS+, Sovereign, and Latitude models. Parts, including engine components, will be available directly from the company to business jet operators and other MRO facilities.&nbsp;
C&amp;L offers consignment and other tailored support programs for the recovered parts and plans to set up parts programs and to stock essential components to support customers operating these airplanes, the company said, “providing an innovative alternative to the current supply chain-constrained parts suppliers.” C&amp;L is also developing new in-house landing gear repairs and improving repair capabilities.
Buyers will be able to source the airplanes’ Pratt &amp; Whitney Canada PW306C and PW545B engine parts from C&amp;L or access complete engines for lease, exchange, or sale.&nbsp;
“This strategic program will offer our customers greater availability of parts for&nbsp;these aircraft types said C&amp;L Aviation Group CEO Chris Kilgour.&nbsp;“With our MRO facility in Bangor, Maine, and our strategically located global warehouse network, C&amp;L is uniquely positioned to support these fleets.”
