Boeing and Vertex to enhance Beechcraft parts distribution
Boeing is working with Mississippi-based Vertex to offer enhanced landing gear overhaul services to all Beechcraft owners through its Aviall distribution network.
Beechcraft customers will see improved landing gear overhaul services following a partnership between Boeing and Vertex Aerospace.

Boeing is to partner with aftermarket aerospace services provider Vertex Aerospace to provide customers who own Beechcraft aircraft with a new flat fee, 21 day door-to-door solution for landing gear overhaul services through its Aviall global distribution system.

“Safe, reliable and available aircraft parts are a must for any aircraft owner,” said William Ampofo, vice president of business, general aviation and OEM services, Boeing Global Services. “By partnering with companies like Vertex, our Aviall operation can efficiently bring overhaul services directly to the customer, allowing their aircraft to be fully operational, anywhere across the globe.”

This new capability will also provide customers with quick door-to-door shipping, maintenance and ship back for parts across a variety of business and general aviation aircraft on a flat fee pricing structure.

“Partnering with Boeing's Aviall team for an advanced distribution system strengthens our ability to provide quality services to customers when they need it, wherever they need it,” adds Vertex president and CEO Ed Boyington. “When you do business with Vertex and Aviall, you're choosing a team with a long-standing tradition of success and value.”
