"We are excited to welcome ERO and its experienced employees to StandardAero and to bring together all of the best practices of two successful, well-known and highly respected Aerospace companies to provide a multitude of benefits for our customers," said Russell Ford, Chairman and CEO of StandardAero. "Acquiring ERO enhances our ability to be one of the most efficient and client-focused Aerospace MRO companies in the world, providing superior quality products and responsive service for our industry."
