Component shops & overhaul
Available
West Star Aviation
Avionics / instrument shop — satellite (line) location at ASE, 12 West Airport Road, Aspen, CO 81611 (tel •••), confirmed on West Star Aviation's official site as one of its satellite locations, distinct from the company's full-service MRO hubs (ALN, GJT, CHA, PCD, plus Statesville NC and Millville NJ). West Star Aviation is company-wide an FAA-Certified Class I, II and III Avionics Repair Station; exact class/rating scope specific to the Aspen satellite bench is unconfirmed, so deeper bench work is referred to the full-service hubs as needed. Company-wide 24/7/365 AOG support (•••, •••) is advertised and covers this location; the previously cited AOG number "•••" and the quoted phrase "limited maintenance and avionics repairs" could not be verified against any official West Star source and have been corrected/removed.
