Sacramento, CA – REMOS Aircraft has added a new dealer/service center to its North American team: Light Sport West. The program was conceived a year ago when Greg and Brian Thomas purchased a Part 145 Air Repair Station which was set up to handle everything from ultralights to King Airs.

They soon purchased a REMOS GX to supplement their flight training operation for training pilots for Sport Pilot and Private Pilot licenses. The versatility and ruggedness of the REMOS that they experienced in flight training soon led them to considering other options. That led to their signing on as a REMOS dealer, after which they sent one of their mechanics to qualify for setting up a REMOS Service Center.

They have an 8,500 sq. ft. hangar at Sacramento Executive Airport (KSAC) that is utilized for service and showroom space, along with an additional 2,500 sq. ft. that houses their administration. The driving force behind all this development in the past year is Greg Thomas, an ex-Navy pilot with an MBA from UC-Davis. Greg, who’s also a CFI, heads up the flight school, while his brother Brian looks after the mechanical side of the operation. Both are engaged in sales efforts. “We think that the performance and handling characteristics of the REMOS, make it an ideal candidate for anyone interested in recreational flying,” said Greg. “It’s very responsive, has excellent visibility, low operating and maintenance costs and it will transform any weekend into an adventure.”
