West Star's Perryville, Missouri location at Perryville Regional airport has received FAA approval for additional airframe capabilities within the Bombardier and Embraer series. The FAA only grants approval based on specific training, manuals and tooling requirements.

The additional series of capabilities include the Global BD700 and Embraer Phenom. Currently, the Perryville location is approved to also perform service on a variety of aircraft models including Falcon, Gulfstream, Sabreliner and Textron series. These additional approvals reflect West Star's focus on the development of airframe-specific capabilities throughout the organisation.

“The addition of these capabilities will provide further service opportunities for our location, while also benefiting the West Star company as a whole,” states GM Kyle French.
