MRO SERVICES

THE MECHANICS OF FLIGHT

When you’re dealing with AOG issues, Midwest Aerospace is here to help. Our team of engineers, technicians, A&P mechanics, and field experts are available 24/7/365. No matter where you are in the world, we can dispatch within 12 hours, and be onsite within 18-24 hours. On top of that, we are approved by the United States Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) to work on the entire family of Bell Helicopters including, airframe, dynamic components, hydraulics, and T53 Engines.  To best understand Midwest and our cornerstone values, we must explain how we started our MRO dream back in 2016.

​

In late 2016 Midwest Aerospace, along with Mr. Marc Avila, purchased Cappsco International Corp from Mr. Gary Capps who had been in the T53 engine business for over 30 years. Within the first three months of owning Cappsco, it became clear that the previous owner left the company with significant reputation and quality issues to overcome. We immediately put quality at the forefront of everything we did while offering the most affordable engines in the industry. These decisions became the cornerstone of our business. Mr. Marc Avila's quality standards were far past anything anyone had expected in the T53 industry, which gave us a competitive advantage. One that has stayed with us everyday through the years. 

 

In 2019, Midwest started its own dynamic component facility to repair and overhaul all components in the Bell Helicopter family. Our goal was to offer the most affordable dynamic components on the Bell Helicopter market. We quickly learned that the industry demanded not just affordable components but a standard of quality that was much higher than what was available in the market at the time. We made it our mission to meet this demand.

THE LEADER IN AFFORDABLE T53

Not only does Midwest Aerospace carry one of the largest inventories of T53 engines, components and accessories ready for service, but overhauled components and new spare parts with certification. Our US FAA approval with Cappsco allows us to use customer-supplied parts, new surplus parts, PMA parts as well as overhauled and serviceable parts. All available with our industry-leading warranty. Midwest Aerospace also offers field work and free training at any of our facilities, and our Fuel Control shop gives you the most affordable fuel control and governor options. All this, plus the quickest turn-around times you’ll find anywhere.

LEADER IN QUALITY COMPONENTS

While being the most affordable component source in the T53 and Bell Helicopter dynamic markets, quality is the true higher standard. Quality is at the forefront of everything we do, which is proven through our minimal warranty issues. In the case of a warranty issue, I can promise you, no one moves as quickly as Midwest Aerospace. We are on site and hard at work within 24-hours from the time of a warranty claim. Only the highest quality of products make it on to the equipment that leaves our facilities. This is what the industry demands. And we are one of the few facilities that can meet, and even exceed that demand.
