Lee Air has purchased the assets of Advent Aircraft Systems, Tulsa, Oklahoma. The transaction closed in December 2025. The operations of Advent will be moved to Lee's 85,000 sq ft engineering and manufacturing facility in Wichita, Kansas. This acquisition enables Lee Air to bring the performance and safety of Advent's anti-skid braking systems to the general aviation and military markets, in addition to electronically controlled power brake systems with or without anti-skid control to the UAS market.

Ken Goldsmith, president and majority shareholder of Advent says: “The transaction with Lee Air is intended to help Advent's aircraft braking systems and components realise their full market potential and confidently meet increased production rates in the coming years.”

Bennie Lee, president and owner of Lee Air, adds: “The Lee Air team is enthusiastic about the addition of the Advent products to our established line of aircraft systems and components. We look forward to offering our existing and new customers this additional capability for their manned and uncrewed aircraft.”
