West Star Aviation is seeing strong early benefits from its March acquisition of DC Jet as it continues to strengthen its AOG (aircraft on ground) capabilities ahead of the busy summer season. With calls into West Star Aviation’s dedicated AOG control center already increasing, the added technician headcount and expanded tooling resources gained through the acquisition are enhancing the company’s ability to respond to customer needs quickly and efficiently.

If You Are Ready to Test For Your A&P...

...you might want to take your tests sooner rather than later! There have been some significant changes to FAA Order 8900.2A which covers Designated Mechanic Examiners ­(DMEs) and the Performance Test Standards (PTS) they are required to test to. These changes will affect the practical tests of the mechanic exams and are going to take effect October 1st for current DMEs. DMEs who are newly appointed before October 1 will need to meet the new requirement once they receive their designation, even if it is before the October 1 date.
