Jack Caloras, the former v-p of sales for Florida-based component exchange provider CRS Jet Spares, is launching a new company with three other partners, AOne Parts & Logistics. “For me personally, this is an opportunity to create a company using the experience and knowledge that I have gained throughout my journey,” said Caloras, who was at CRS for nearly 20 years.

AOne’s services will include the purchase and sales of airworthy aircraft and those that are useful only for parting out, as well as consultation for aircraft owners who are evaluating whether to upgrade their airplanes or sell them for parting out. Its other services will cover sales of new and used aircraft parts, the acquisition of parts inventories for out-of-production aircraft, and inventories that provide a viable alternative to OEM parts for newer aircraft, Caloras said. The company also will partner with OEMs and suppliers to improve their market share and revenue, he added.

The company is based in North Carolina. “We are excited about the possibilities of our vision and believe that the benefits to all involved will be unique and well appreciated,” Caloras said.
