What atlantic aero support does

Atlantic Aero Support, Inc. is a privately held FAA-certified Part 145 repair station (certificate POQR757K) founded in 1988 by Donald Pare and Tim Pellegrino, operating from a single facility at 37 Hinckley Road in Hyannis, Massachusetts. The company specializes in the repair, overhaul, and service of mechanical and electrical accessory components for regional, commuter, corporate, and military aircraft — including hydraulic landing gear and flap actuators, starter generators, brakes, wheel assemblies, lighting systems, landing gear and drag brace assemblies, and mechanical subsystems such as scissors, links, uplock actuators, and shimmy dampeners. Supporting capabilities include Non-Destructive Inspection (Magnaflux, Eddy Current, and fluorescent/magnetic particle testing), life vest inspection and re-certification, and the issuance of FAA 8130-3 return-to-service certificates.

The company's underlying technology stack is a manual, hands-on MRO process layered on FAA regulatory credentials — most importantly the firm's use of FAA Designated Engineering Representative (DER) authority to develop proprietary repair specifications (e.g., bearing gland re-work and plating for landing gear actuators) that extend component life and address aging-aircraft concerns beyond OEM-approved work. The technician team carries over 90 years of combined aviation experience with factory, FAA, OJT, and AMT training, and the in-house facility supports high-potential electrical testing. Certifications include FAA Accessory Class 1 (Mechanical) and Class 2 (Electrical), EASA Part 145 for international work, NDI method certifications, and full FAA Antidrug Plan compliance.

Atlantic Aero Support generates revenue through three streams: (1) labor-and-parts component repair and overhaul services billed per job on a quote basis, (2) parts sales and exchange of pre-repaired units from a stocked inventory enabling faster turnaround, and (3) standalone NDI testing and life vest re-certification services. The go-to-market is direct, sales-led, and relationship-driven — targeting regional airlines (anchor customer Cape Air for nearly 30 years), corporate flight departments, and military operators. Pricing is custom-quoted per component, with the company emphasizing competitive rates supported by 30+ year vendor relationships and a 24/7 AOG emergency support line that differentiates on responsiveness. Customer segments are organized vertically (Regional Airlines, Corporate Aviation, Military), with no public pricing tiers, no subscription model, and no third-party distribution.
