Sierra Industries extends ‘Fly-Thru Maintenance’ program for Citation owners

By Janice Wood · April 5, 2010 ·

Sierra Industries will continue its “Fly-Thru Maintenance” program, which celebrates its first anniversary this month. The program, modeled after loaner services provided by premium automotive service centers, provides for a replacement aircraft during service or repairs of Citation aircraft.

While an aircraft is serviced at Sierra’s South Texas facilities, the program provides the owner with a comparable aircraft – often one of our re-engined FJ44 Citations – to keep them on the move while their plane is out of service. The program is available for any significant routine maintenance events, such as phase inspections, or during aircraft repairs or major upgrades.

In the event a Sierra-owned replacement aircraft is unavailable, Sierra’s sister company – FlighTime Business Jets – offers discounted ‘dry lease’ rates and air charter services for a wide variety of business aircraft, company officials said.

For more information: 888-8FLYERS or SIJet.com.
