Duncan Aviation-Provo Executive Vice President and General Manager Bill Prochazka had this to say: “Duncan Aviation has a long history with Learjets and in 1967 was named the first Learjet Authorized Service Center. We have built on this history and continue to have a great partnership with Bombardier and the entire Bombardier line of products. We are pleased with their continued confidence in the quality and reliability of our services and find that this is a confidence shared by our mutual customers. We look forward to welcoming those customers to our new facility, which is strategically located to deliver maintenance and repair services across the western United States.”
