In this video, we sit down with Joe McCurdy of Flytek Labs to talk about the importance of maintaining your ground service equipment. GSE America and FlyTek only want one thing: for you to get your equipment maintained.
Whether aviation maintainers select ground support service and parts from GSE America, Aviall or directly from manufacturers like NMC Wollard, Lektro or Tronair (Malabar, Columbus Jack, Eagle, Jetporter), maintenance needs to be completed. The primary benefit is that when maintenance is planned rather than emergency response, even if the cost was the same (which it never is) the down-time for repair is exponentially more restricting. Find a Tronair Authorized Service Center that stocks 250 different part numbers and quantity of each, not 10 common parts at low volume. Everyone carries or can “get you” K-1414 filters or K-1050 ram kits, look for a group that stocks everything they could need for 6 months.
Find a Tronair Authorized Service Center that has a mobile service unit and can bring their entire facility to you. A GSE provider that has expertise on the product and doesn’t need to look in a catalog to tell you that the G650 nose jack is Tronair 02A1248C0112. Whether its GSE America or another trusted group, find one that focuses solely on ground support equipment as their core business model, not a division or added revenue stream. Great ground support companies exist, find one today!
At GSE America, we deliver parts and service to ground support equipment operators in multiple scales. We set the pace with our complete restorations, putting equipment back to “zero-hour” as the unit would have come from the factory, but also offer basic maintenance, testing, and functional repair. We offer onsite service in any state with our mobile service units, prepared with parts and military AGE/GSE expertise to commission Aircraft Jacks, Hydraulic Power Units (HPU/mule), Cabin Pressurization Units (CPU), Ground Power Units/Rectifiers/Generators (GPU), Fluid Service Units, Tail stands, Aircraft Tractors/Tugs and more.
