September 20, 2018 – West Star Aviation highlighted the features of its fourth full-service MRO at Perryville Regional Airport (PCD) on Wednesday, September 19, 2018 with an open house for customers, media and employees.
West Star completed its Perryville expansion after closing on its fourth hangar at the airport in late June of 2018, expanding their PCD footprint to over 120,000 sq. ft. of hangar and shop space. West Star currently occupies four hangars at PCD, one of which includes a 28,800 sq. ft. paint facility with a downdraft filtration system. Employees and capabilities are continuously being added to PCD and will help to fully develop this facility into the fourth full-service MRO in the coming months.
“We were thrilled to have our customers, employees and some media on-site to see the facility and plans for Perryville’s future,” said Kyle French, General Manager of West Star Aviation in Perryville. “The open house was a great way to assure our Midwest customers that we are continuing with our heritage of quality world-class service at this facility,” French continued.
