WEST STAR AVIATION
Continued from page 39

customer comes back because of the way our employees
handle them when their airplane is in-house. We have the
people behind us, backing up everything we say."
New ownership
Two years ago, the Minneapolis-based investment
group Norwest Equity Partners and West Star Aviation
created an investment partnership, bringing more
resources and a bold vision for growth. In 2017, NEP
expanded into other aspects of aviation, purchasing
Avant Aerospace, a parts company; Dallas Aeronautical
Services, a composite repair specialist; and MSP Aero,
another FAA repair station. The sister companies are
all wholly owned subsidiaries of West Star Aviation's
parent company.
"Good things have happened from our partnership
with NEP," Cunningham said. "We've been able to
expand and grow and acquire companies that we might
not have been able to earlier. They've been wonderful
to work with. We're always looking for ways to elevate

West Star's services. It's been a good fit for us."
Along with the expansion in Chattanooga, NEP is
helping West Star Aviation's East Alton facility expand
into an additional hangar.
"Our business in East Alton has been so successful,
we just don't have enough space," Cunningham
said. "Recently, we expanded into St. Louis
Downtown Airport in Cahokia, Illinois, purchasing a
43,000-square-foot hangar neighboring our East Alton
facility. It allows us to continue to meet customers'
expectations and offer quick turn-times. We're looking
at building another hangar in East Alton within the next
two years or so."
All across the country, West Star Aviation's
employees are the reason behind the organization's
longevity and success, according to Cunningham.
"Whether they're installing a new cabin management
system, doing maintenance, paint or interior, our
employees treat our customers' airplanes like their
own," she said. "They're true craftsmen. They're
concerned about the end product and what it looks like.
We're blessed. Our people are just extraordinary, and
we appreciate each one of them." q
