Vance Street Capital (Vance Street) is set to rebrand its collective group of general aviation and business aviation brands to Victor Sierra Aviation (VS Aviation), as well as its latest acquisition of Aviation Products Systems (APS).
Vance Street originally formed the entity now known as VS Aviation in October 2021 when they partnered with the founder of McFarlane Aviation (McFarlane). McFarlane is a manufacturing company that specialises in designing and manufacturing proprietary, new and aftermarket replacement components for the general and aviation sectors.
""The addition of APS creates another key pillar in our portfolio of brands by expanding our proprietary PMA offering into the wheel & brakes segment for general & business aviation aircraft, another avenue to help our customers keep flying,"" said Scott Still, CEO of VS Aviation.
He continued: ""At APS, we strive to provide our customers with quality components at a fair price that every aircraft requires and replaces on a regular basis,"" said Pat McNamara, President of APS. ""Partnering with the VS Aviation team will broaden our reach and enable us to better support our customers.""
In 2022, Vance Street also partnered with the founders of Tempest Aero Group (TAG), adding another key pillar to the VS Aviation family of brands. TAG is a designer and manufacturer of proprietary new and replacement components, with specialties such as high-wear ignition, filtration, fuel and pneumatic components.
To complement McFarlane and TAG, VS Aviation has made three additional tuck-in acquisitions including Airforms, a founder-owned designer of PMA parts focused on engine baffles, Great Planes Fuel Metering, a founder-owned FAA-certified repair station focused on providing MRO services on Continental fuel injection systems and PMA Products.
