The Western Jet/Jet Edge Alliance:
Aircraft managed by Jet Edge have exclusive service priority at Western Jet, the Part 145 Repair Facility, the sister company to Jet Edge. Utilizing the largest independent Gulfstream Only MRO in the world – Western Jet – offers clear cut advantages to our clientele. Western Jet’s reputation is well-deserved, offering unprecedented savings to our owners on labor, parts, and projected down-time. This unique team approach between operations and maintenance gives way to seamless aircraft management from a dual perspective. Having two companies, under the same umbrella, allows for constant communication between two critical elements of aircraft management – maintenance and operations. This reciprocal link prevents aircraft downtime due to maintenance issues, granting valuable insight to our operations team, so they schedule trips to coincide – rather than conflict - with ongoing and upcoming maintenance packages.
The Western Jet Advantage:
The last of a dying breed in aviation maintenance, Western Jet’s philosophy is centered around traditional values, paying particular attention to detail, quality, and value at every juncture. At the heart of every job lies an attitude of accountability and perfection, with the staff taking ownership of each and every aircraft that rolls through the hangar door. This long-forgotten customer-focused mindset, rather than company focused approach, is backed by the most experienced and knowledgeable staff in the industry. Each technician, inspector, and maintenance office associate is hand-picked based upon their depth and breadth of expertise, pooled with their willingness to go the extra mile for aircraft owners.
