AIS cements partnership with Raisbeck
Raisbeck recently supported Aerospace Instrument Support during the modification of 10 factory-new King Air 250’s with its systems. The relationship has been formalised, as AIS is now an authorised Raisbeck dealer.

Raisbeck Engineering has named Aerospace Instrument Support as an authorised dealer. Located at Denton airport in Denton, Texas, Aerospace Instrument Support (AIS) specialises in providing aircraft maintenance and avionics installation and support as well as major aircraft modifications for business class aircraft.

Established in 1995 exclusively as an instrument repair facility, AIS has expanded to offer full avionics and airframe services while maintaining a friendly and honest attitude and a fast turnaround. Its A&Ps and IAs have years of experience in maintaining aircraft of all variations with extensive factory-rated schooling in King Air, Pilatus, Cessna, Embraer, Caravan and Piaggio types.

“We are very pleased to add AIS to our global network of dealers,” explains Raisbeck president Lynn Thomas. “Customer support has been a primary focus for our company. Appointing AIS, with its combined more than 85 years of experience in maintaining aircraft along with its excellent customer support, was a natural partnership for us.”

AIS recently completed modifications of 10 factory new King Air 250’s equipped with REI systems. “These mods were completed in rapid succession and allowed us to perfect our process and deliver an excellent product with as minimal downtime as possible,” says president Andy Johnson. “Raisbeck’'s support and commitment to quality during this project was unmatched and we are proud to be offering its product lines to our current and future customers.”
