The Blackhawk Group has been given the Garmin Platinum Dealer Award for two of its subsidiary companies, Blackhawk Performance Centers (BPC) and AVEX. This distinction places it among the highest echelon of Garmin’s dealer network.

TBG is dedicated to providing customers with cutting-edge aviation technology and superior service. The company’s status as a top dealer enables it to offer advanced solutions like the Garmin G1000 NXi upgrade for King Air and TBM aircraft and the Garmin G5000 upgrade for Cessna Citation models.

Blackhawk Performance Centers, located at Columbia Regional airport in Columbia, Missouri and Rocky Mountain Metropolitan airport in Broomfield, Colorado has also remained one of Blackhawk’s top dealers and installers of XP Engine+ upgrades since its debut in 2021. These centres focus on Beechcraft King Air, Cessna Citation and Pilatus PC-12 (BJC) aircraft. Services include aircraft maintenance, engine upgrade installations, avionics upgrades, STC development and more. On average, BPC technicians have over 30 years of experience serving PT6 operators worldwide.

“This recognition and strategic partnership position us at the forefront of aviation innovation,” says Beau Hawkins, sales director at BPC. “We’re setting a new standard for quality and expertise in aircraft upgrades and we’re honoured to be recognised for these efforts.”

AVEX Performance Centers at Camarillo airport in California and Rocky Mountain Metropolitan airport in Broomfield, Colorado is an exclusive, authorised regional Daher dealer that specialises in TBM aircraft, offering services from inspections and maintenance to engine trend monitoring and avionics upgrades.
