Elevate opens shop at Rocky Mountain in Colorado
With other companies closing their Denver operations, Elevate aims to tap into the region's talented pool of aviation technicians and industry veterans, offering aircraft owners a new local management option.
Elevate MRO maintains a wide array of current airframes representing 43 unique aircraft models across 11 manufacturers.

Elevate MRO is opening a new aircraft maintenance centre at Rocky Mountain Metropolitan airport in Denver, Colorado. This expansion includes increased staff and maintenance teams to support the existing client base and enhance aircraft maintenance service availability while supporting sister company Elevate Jet's management, charter and aircraft sales capabilities. Elevate MRO is a division of Elevate Aviation Group based at Salt Lake City International airport in Utah.

The 17,000 sq ft facility provides essential hangar and office space, allowing Elevate to expand its MRO aircraft maintenance and management. Notably, the MRO will introduce much-needed avionics services, including custom installations and maintenance. Elevate MRO was recently selected by SpaceX as an approved dealer and installer of Starlink for business aircraft.

With other companies closing their Denver operations, Elevate aims to tap into the region's talented pool of aviation technicians and industry veterans, offering aircraft owners a new local management option. With a mobile AOG team capable of quickly restoring an aircraft to service, Elevate provides support to the Denver metropolitan area and surrounding resort airports.

“In addition to expanding our MRO footprint, this new facility will provide Elevate clients a home for owners who are looking for aircraft management services,” says Jim Slack, president of Elevate MRO. “With its savage client-centric approach, Elevate MRO maintains a wide array of current airframes representing 43 unique aircraft models across 11 manufacturers. This expansion underscores our commitment to delivering top-tier services and innovative solutions to the private jet community.”
