15 January 2020:Aviation Technical Services (ATS) has acquired a Boeing 767-3G5ER to increase inventory of available parts at its Ranger Air location near the Dallas/Ft. Worth, Texas airport (DFW) where component sales, inventory management and AOG activity is conducted.
ATS will use its own component repair shops in Everett, WA and the DFW area (including American Cooler, Aviation Industry Repair (AIR), and TPS Aerospace) to make available reliable, quality parts to airlines and aircraft operators. ATS plans to further leverage its Ranger business through future purchases of additional aircraft throughout 2020 and onwards.
"The purchase of an aircraft for teardown has been a goal of our ATS-Ranger operations since they became part of the ATS team in July of 2018," said Brian Olsen, President of Components and Technical Solutions at ATS. "To see a goal become reality is always exciting, but this one is extra special due to the unwavering dedication of the individuals involved."
