Daher appoints Exec Aero as the U.S. TBM Service Center for Central Florida
Exec Aero was created by former employees of Flight Express Inc., a cargo and courier company that was one of the largest FAA Part 135 carriers in the United States. Flight Express was well known for its strict adherence to the highest quality standards in aircraft maintenance, fleet management and business management.
“We selected Exec Aero because its team showed all of the positive attributes for great customer service, which was confirmed by the many years of experience in this sector, » said Charles A. Holomek, Vice-President Customer Support for the Americas of Daher’s Airplane Business Unit.
“In addition, the company’s base at Orlando Executive Airport (KORL) is close to the SimCom training center, which is our partner for TBM training. This creates the possibility for pilot-owners and operators to service their aircraft while they attend training courses.”
Nathan T. Marler, Exec Aero’s General Manager, said the relationship with Daher began in 2012 when Exec Aero repaired its first aircraft from the TBM very fast turboprop family. “We had a good look at the aircraft and decided it was definitely something different,” he explained. “We’ve carried forward our passion and pride for the TBM, and are now pleased to offer more support as a TBM Service Center.”
Marler noted that Exec Aero offers an excellent opportunity to serve TBM owners who want to enjoy the Orlando area’s local attractions and its many leisure offerings. “In addition, our close proximity to Daher’s U.S. headquarters at Pompano Beach Airpark allows us to work closely with the company on all aspects of factory support and service to TBM owners –both during and after business hours, along with our AOG [aircraft on ground] program,” he added.
