Yingling Aviation has acquired Global Engineering & Technology, Inc. (GETI), an interiors service provider also located in Wichita. The financial details of the transaction remain undisclosed.

GETI, established in 1991, has designed and restored interiors for over 4,500 business aircraft. The acquisition provides Yingling with access to GETI's expertise in repair and design services, including cabinet restoration and seat refurbishment. Gaining GETI's 60,000 square feet of facility space also boosts Yingling's capacity for future growth.

“Integrating GETI into our operations will allow us to greatly increase our scope of work for interior renovations while accelerating client turnaround times,” says Bob Rasberry, CEO, Yingling Aviation. “Having collaborated closely with GETI over the years, we have firsthand knowledge of the quality of its team and its outstanding reputation across the industry.”

Kurt Smith, president of GETI, adds: “Together, we have the potential to unlock real synergies by combining our knowledge and experience in interior fabrications with Yingling's deep maintenance and repair expertise. We look forward to working closely with the Yingling team as we integrate our organisations, diversify our customer base and bring our comprehensive capabilities to market.”
