C&L Aerospace has entered into a long-term strategic agreement that facilitates the disassembly of end-of-life business jet aircraft.
C&L will begin by initially disassembling 13 aircraft through the remainder of 2024, with the parts from these aircraft aiming to support various Cessna Citation models, including Excel (XL), XLS, XLS+, (560), Sovereign (680), and Latitude (680A).
Leveraging the scale enabled by this new program, C&L will expand its support to corporate jet operators and MRO’s either individually, via consignment or through other tailored support programs offered by C&L.
“This strategic program will offer our customers greater availability of parts for these aircraft types said Chris Kilgour, CEO of C&L Aviation Group. “With our MRO facility in Bangor, Maine, and our strategically located Global Warehouse Network, C&L is uniquely positioned to support these fleets.”
To meet increasing demand, C&L is expanding its disassembly operations and enhancing its in-house repair services, particularly in landing gear support. C&L is also forming new partnerships with leading repair vendors to expand its capabilities in aircraft component repairs.
The PW306C and PW545B engines removed from these aircraft will be disassembled to support engine shop visits, or made available as complete engines for lease, exchange, or sale.
