business profle
de-ice, hangars, and fueling services
at both airports.
The third leg of Borgsmiller's
one-stop for turbine aircraft business
plan — after FBO services, aircraft
management and charter services —
took form in late 2010 with the completion of home of ACI Jet Solutions,
a 35,000 square-foot maintenance service hangar.
The ACI Jet Solutions hangar is geared up and ready to go.
How ready? Ready to install a high
quality interior such as the one
recently completed on a Citation X;
ready to perform major engine work
and engine changes, and ready to
provide a degree of sheet metal fabrication and repair. And it's always
ready for normal line servicing such
as washing, tire and battery servicing,
and detailing services including Trip
Ready servicing during quick-turn
operations.
One service that sets the ACI detail
team apart from others is the ability
and training to provide leather and
bright work restoration services for
interiors. One of only two Townsend
Leather Service Centers on the West
Coast, ACI detail specialists are certified by The Leather Institute.
The Jet Solutions plan also includes
a mobile maintenance truck that
is ready to go, "as far as they want
us to go," says Robillard.
Borgsmiller's original vision of, "flying people around in airplanes," has
grown in a direction he didn't foresee
just a few years ago. Today that vision
has morphed into the newest full-service jet service center on California's
Central Coast.
