Aims of Jet East and Turbine Engine Specialists align nicely
A new partnership pairs Jet East's coast-to-coast AOG presence with TES's own AOG network and provides access to its Honeywell 36-100 and 36-150 APU rental pool, the most prominent APUs for certain types.
Jet East and TES expect to develop a successful relationship at Fort Worth.

Jet East, a US aviation maintenance company and Gama Aviation company offering full-service capabilities and 24/7 mobile maintenance, has joined forces with Turbine Engine Specialists (TES) in Fort Worth, Texas to offer complete engine and APU AOG services throughout the US.

The partnership pairs Jet East's coast-to-coast AOG presence with TES's own AOG network and provides access to its Honeywell 36-100 and 36-150 APU rental pool, the most prominent APUs for most midsize and super-midsize aircraft types. The partnership creates an on-demand network of factory-trained technicians to work with all types of owner/operators, including those without contracted maintenance plans. In addition to APU services, Jet East and TES are pleased to offer comprehensive AOG maintenance for the Honeywell TFE731, HTF7000, CFE738 and GE CF34 engines.

Jet East COO and executive VP of AOG ops Gary Lee says: “We are excited about the partnership with TES to optimise coverage and cost for our AOG customers across the country. With the rental bank of Honeywell APUs strategically located at our full-service maintenance facilities in West Palm Beach, Florida; Millville, New Jersey; and Las Vegas, Nevada, we look forward to resolving APU and engine issues efficiently with the expertise of factory-trained and certified Jet East and TES technicians. Our mobile team is comprised of more than 100 technicians who average 400+ maintenance events each month. Interested customers can find 24-hour support by contacting our AOG dispatch team.”

“This partnership with Jet East, a premier AOG provider across the country, allows TES to bring its engine and APU expertise to more customers at a faster rate with immediate technical knowledge,” adds TES VP and GM Dave Rassett. “Our agility and solutions-based approach aligns perfectly with the Jet East mission to return aircraft to service expediently.”
