Phoenix Air’s highly experienced Maintenance, Avionics and Special Missions personnel have years of experience in installing existing Government Furnished Equipment (GFE), developing interfaces between client-supplied equipment and aircraft operations systems, and developing new systems to support mission requirements.
Phoenix Air is staffed by highly competent hands-on technicians, using CADS systems, bench experimentation, sheet metal workers, designers, specialized sub contractors and more to integrate technology into existing airframes.
In the case of the CAECSP aircraft, the two corporate Gulfstream G-I aircraft were completely disassembled in Phoenix Air’s maintenance facilities and re-built incorporating major modifications to the fuselage and wings to accommodate various radomes, external pods and antennas.
Learjet “Gray Birds” have similarly been converted from former corporate aircraft to highly specialized military contracted aircraft.
In additional to DOD clients, Phoenix Air technicians have customized aircraft for cargo operations, U.S. Weather Service for atmospheric testing, U.S. Forest Service for aerial photography and Georgia Tech Research Institute for experimental pod carriage. |
