Aircraft Maintenance Technology - 35

The independent MRO's success has been built on a
commitment to customers, diversification and strong
bonds with their partners.
t was their passion for flying that lead
Herb and Arlene Elliott to found Elliott
Aviation in 1936. Beginning initially as a
flying school and an aircraft sales business, Elliott has evolved over the years
to be a full-service MRO business with
FBO services at three locations. They
also buy, sell and trade aircraft under the
Elliott Jets brand and manufacture products
under the Elliott Technologies brand. Elliott's
MRO business is the segment where the
company has experienced the most growth,
thanks in part to the company's adherence to
Herb and Arlene Elliott's founding passion of
providing the best service to their customers.
A passion Elliott Aviation continues to carry
through 2020.
"The core values of unmatched quality, uncompromising integrity and unbeatable customer service are
built on the same founding principles that formed our
company more than 80 years ago," said Greg Sahr,
president and CEO of Elliott Aviation. "Our dedication to these values has helped establish ourselves
as a major brand in the U.S. Business Aviation MRO
segment. We pride ourselves on delivering a personal
touch and a family feel to our customers that we feel
sets us apart from our major competitors."
Elliott provides aircraft maintenance, avionics,
paint, interior, parts, accessories and FBO services for
mid-sized jets and turboprops. Sahr said Elliott continues to be a leader in mid-sized turboprops and jets.
"After the ADS-B spike in demand, the industry, and
the world, is facing a very challenging road ahead after
COVID-19 is behind us. It was a problem that no one
saw coming, and it fundamentally changes the way we
interact and operate as a business. However, the market still has demand for major avionics retrofits like
the G5000 for the Citation Excel/XLS, G1000/G100NXi
for the King Air and the G5000 for the Beechjet 400A/

Hawker 400XP. Maintenance, paint and interior are
also seeing steady demand. Our customers keep coming back to Elliott Aviation because they see the value
in the service we provide. We're big enough to handle
all of their aircraft needs, but small enough to give
them the personal touch they deserve," explained Sahr.
It isn't just the way they treat their customers that
helped Elliott grow into the MRO business since its
inception, but through the partnerships the company
has forged along the way.
"Throughout the years, we have also been successful
by delivering on our vision of building partnerships
that last. As an authorized facility for many different
airframes, we have long-standing OEM relationships
with key industry partners like Textron, Embraer and
Daher. As an authorized dealer for many aircraft products, we also have strategic partnerships with companies like Garmin, Gogo, Collins, Raisbeck, Blackhawk
and many others," Sahr described.
