West Star Aviation is proud to announce the establishment of a new satellite location in Addison, Texas, marking the fifth West Star Aviation satellite and expanding capabilities to better serve operators across the Dallas metroplex.
The Addison location represents a key milestone as the newest West Star Aviation satellite and a strategic addition to serve the Dallas area with enhanced onsite access and regional coverage. The site features a 40,000-square-foot hangar, supporting expanded maintenance and repair capabilities for the region.
The Addison satellite will provide scheduled and unscheduled maintenance, AOG support, installations and upgrades, and inspections up to 12 and 24 months. The operation will showcase an advanced avionics upgrade capability supported by our structural and engineering expertise, giving customers a clear path to upgrades and reliable service.
Dallas is an ideal hub for a West Star Aviation satellite, with Robert Harris as Satellite Manager overseeing day-to-day operations alongside onsite engineering resources. Current services operate during daytime hours, with plans to extend to seven-day-a-week coverage to meet growing demand.
This expansion reflects strong demand from operators who need experienced technicians, state-of-the-art tooling, and ample hangar space. The Addison team has expansive tooling and highly skilled aviation professionals who are ready to deliver faster, more comprehensive service for scheduled maintenance, AOG support, and complex upgrades.
“​​This expansion is more than a new location. It is a commitment to our customers,” said Robert Harris, Satellite Manager. “The Addison hangar footprint, combined with our experienced team and the specialized tools we have invested in, enables us to deliver faster, more comprehensive service, whether it is scheduled maintenance, AOG support, or complex upgrades. It is an exciting milestone for West Star Aviation and the Dallas community.”
To celebrate this expansion, West Star Aviation is planning a grand opening event at Addison Airport later this month.
