FACILITIES: 26,000 square feet

WHAT THEY DO:
B&S Aircraft is a Class I, II and III
repair station that specializes in
servicing and maintaining aircraft
component parts.

FOUNDED: 1965 by Ed Bolain
EMPLOYEES: 32
AEA MEMBER SINCE: 2017

Technician Jason Bedient re-solders the printed circuit board and capacitors onto the housing windings of a generator.

by finding new opportunities, new
capabilities and new products to
service.
"We are always looking to add
new capabilities," Fidler said.
"It's an ongoing process. We're
driven by customer needs. We
have full capabilities on Cessna,
Beech, Learjet and Pilatus, so
we're looking at airframes that
we don't support now such as the
Dassault Falcon lines, Gulfstreams,
and Bombardier business jets.
And we're looking to explore any
repairs that our customers need
another option for, because our top
goal is to satisfy the customer."
To add a new capability, it takes
about six months to acquire the
manuals and tooling and resolve
supply chain logistics, according
to Fidler. If the capability expands
on the repair station's expertise
in starter generators, it takes only

three months. If the capability is
entirely new from the ground up, it
could take up to a year.
"We looked at one new capability
that we ended up scratching due to
various reasons," Fidler said. "It
was a clean sheet idea, a brand-new
capability that we've never done

before here. It was a good learning
experience, and an enjoyable route
to go down. It's going to help us
going forward with future projects
because we'll know more of what
to expect. It's part of the process of
being open to new ideas and finding
ways to solve customers' needs." q

AMETEK, a global, publicly traded electronics and electromechanical
devices company, purchased B&S Aircraft in 2007.
