C&L Aviation Services, headquartered in Bangor, Maine, has expanded its component repair facility with new landing gear rating and wheel and brake capabilities. With this new rating, C&L provides landing gear overhauls for Cessna Citation series and Embraer ERJ 140/145 aircraft and will soon include Embraer E190 and Boeing 737. The new wheel and brake capabilities allow C&L to offer repair and overhaul services for regional and corporate aircraft.

“Receiving the new rating and capabilities for our component shop demonstrates C&L’s ongoing dedication to aftermarket part support across various aviation sectors,” says component shop manager Felipe Garcia. “With our existing exchange gear services, the addition of in-house landing gear repair further strengthens our comprehensive offerings.”

C&L is also only one of a few repair stations in the US providing landing gear, and wheel and brake services in the regional aftermarket. Exchanges on landing gear, brakes and wheels are available via sister company C&L Aerospace, ensuring quick turnaround times for customers.

As part of this expansion, C&L has acquired an automated eddy current machine, the only one at a Part 145 repair station in New England. This provides non-destructive testing (NDT) inspections on all corporate, regional, commercial, military and cargo wheels.
