Aircraft & Turbine Support (TUL) Expands Operations to Create Comprehensive Executive Jet Facility
/
Aircraft and Turbine Support Inc. of Tulsa International Airport has completed the bulk of a multi-million dollar expansion project.The aviation services company moved into its newly minted location in January and has been fully operational ever since. The FBO expects to hold its grand opening in late spring of this year. New additions and updates include a remodeled terminal, a Corporate Aviation Complex for rentable executive office space and a 22,000-square-foot storage hangar.
“Our facility is spacious, but it’s not overwhelming.," General Manager Joe Cole said. "We’ve built an FBO that delivers the ultimate level of comfort without the gold and marble everywhere in order to maintain low fuel prices and keep overall costs down.”
Located on the southwest corner of the airport with direct highway access, Aircraft and Turbine Support is ideally positioned for customers to access metro Tulsa, Owasso and Jenks, Okla. The large terminal space offers visitors a high-end coffee bar, conference rooms and even a training room. Pilots enjoy a viewing theater, pool table and computers, in addition to a fully-loaded crew area that provides recliners in a heavily insulated and dark snooze room. A nearby courtyard and dog run allow customers and even their dogs to enjoy the Oklahoma weather.
“We have a diverse aviation complex here with room for additional growth,” Cole said. “It’s really Tulsa International’s first executive jet facility in terms of the range of repair offerings as well as the other extensive services we provide.”
Aircraft and Turbine Support specializes in “away from base” maintenance for Challenger, Falcon, Lear, Hawker and Westwind aircraft. Capabilities include overhauls on GE CJ610 and CF700 engines. As an FAA Certified Repair Station with ratings for Limited Power Plant, Limited Airframe, Limited Specialized Service and Limited Accessories, this FBO provides flight departments all over the country with comprehensive aircraft service.
