Fleet Retirement is Not Really The End. 

The retirement of an aircraft fleet marks a significant transition, representing a strategic move towards a more modern, efficient, and sustainable future.
This decision is often the culmination of a thorough analysis of operational costs, maintenance requirements, and evolving environmental standards.

 

As we bid farewell to these workhorses of the sky, we honor their decades of service. These new planes bring with them advanced technology, improved fuel efficiency, and a reduced environmental footprint, allowing us to enhance our operational performance while upholding our commitment to a greener future.
This transition is not just an end but a new beginning, setting the stage for General Airframe Support to do it's part in reclamation. 

 

Meticulous Disassembly and Reclamation

We offer complete and partial aircraft disassembly and reclamation services. Our process begins with a detailed teardown plan, ensuring a controlled and efficient dismantling of the airframe. Whether it’s a complete aircraft or a targeted removal of a single engine or component, our expert technicians follow strict protocols to safely detach, identify, and prepare each part for its next phase. We understand that traceability is paramount in the aviation industry, which is why we provide a complete audit trail for all removed parts.

 

Our process includes inventorying, detailed accounting, and tagging of every single component, ensuring its airworthiness status and history are preserved for future use.

 

Strategic Asset Management and Resale

Our capabilities extend far beyond simply tearing down aircraft. We act as a strategic partner to help you liquidate your assets and maximize your return on investment. With access to multiple marketing sites and an extensive network of buyers, we provide a powerful platform to resell your components and engines. We can manage the entire sales process, from listing and marketing to negotiation and final sale, on your behalf. Additionally, we offer full-service consignment programs, giving you the flexibility to market your parts without the burden of managing logistics.

Secure Storage, Preservation, and Logistics

Once components are removed, their integrity must be maintained. Our services include secure component storage and preservation in a controlled environment, protecting valuable parts from corrosion and environmental damage while they await sale or reuse. Furthermore, we handle all the logistics with precision. Our team is highly experienced in packing, crating, and shipping aircraft parts and engines to any global destination. We use industry-standard packing materials and methods to ensure every component arrives at its destination in the same condition it left, fully prepared for transport and compliant with all shipping regulations.

 

Whether you’re looking to liquidate a complete airframe, a partial inventory, or just a few key components, General Airframe Support provides a comprehensive, start-to-finish solution that maximizes value while ensuring full compliance and peace of mind.
