Duncan Aviation Aircraft Sales & Acquisitions consultant, Tim Barber, says that during the summer of 2020, the market for preowned aircraft was steady, if not slow. Yet over the past 12 months, things have changed dramatically.

Duncan Aviation is prepared to have Aviation Clean Air (ACA) portable ion-distribution units in use throughout the Duncan Aviation booth during the NBAA Convention, Oct. 12-14, in Las Vegas. These portable, electric-powered ionization units have been adapted for use in decontaminating the air and surfaces in aircraft interiors while on the ground, as well as other passenger areas, such as lounges, boarding areas and holding areas. The units will create increased air ions throughout Duncan Aviation’s booth during the show, potentially providing pathogen protection while allowing show attendees to see the units and learn about the benefits of patented bipolar ionization technology in its aircraft.

In an effort to make NBAA-BACE a more sustainable event, NBAA is offering exhibitors the opportunity to participate in the NBAA Green Pledge. Duncan Aviation embraces the opportunity and will fulfill as many of the Green Pledge practices as possible in the company’s booth set-up and show activities.

Duncan Aviation officially adds Charlotte, NC, to its mobile engine Rapid Response Team (RRT) network. Operators in the southeast Atlantic region now have more convenient access to Duncan Aviation services, like engine AOG and most scheduled and unscheduled events, including engine changes.

Duncan Aviation delivers a Gulfstream G550 that was transformed with a full interior refurbishment and avionics upgrades. The customer wanted to refresh the dated aircraft with a sleek, new look, and so the Duncan Aviation Interior and Design teams incorporated modern styling cues, modifying the seat design and handrails and adding high-contrast materials.

Duncan Aviation announces that three of its satellite avionics facilities are now offering tool calibration services for torque wrenches, multimeters, crimpers and other tools used in aviation maintenance. The equipment that provides the capabilities will rotate between Duncan's Satellite Shops several times a year, and as more technicians throughout the Duncan Aviation satellite network are trained, more satellite facilities will offer the tool-calibration service.

To ensure Duncan Aviation’s customers are well-informed when it comes to the Federal Aviation Administration’s (FAA’s) NextGen mandates and guidelines, several of the company’s avionics experts have updated its Straight Talk book on the NextGen initiative for datalink.

In response to customers’ growing needs for Falcon airframe support, Duncan Aviation adds a new technical position at its Lincoln, NE, headquarters. John Spevak has been tapped as a Falcon airframe tech rep, providing troubleshooting and technical support to Falcon customers and Duncan Aviation airframe maintenance teams.

Duncan Aviation announces that Robert Suarez has joined the Duncan Aviation Aircraft Sales & Acquisitions team as market research analyst. Suarez’s responsibilities include tracking Duncan Aviation core aircraft markets, creating marketing campaigns, and assisting in the consignment, acquisition and sale of aircraft.

Duncan Aviation’s Component Services customer account team grew by nearly 25% in the first quarter of 2021. Account reps are now located in Florida, Michigan, Nebraska and Utah.
