PAST buys Piper Plastic

By Janice Wood · January 13, 2013 ·

TYLER, Texas — Premier Aerospace Services and Technology (PAST) has purchased Piper Plastic from Heinol and Associates.

Piper Plastic’s production of interior parts for general aviation aircraft has been relocated to the PAST facility in Alva, Okla., and will be integrated with the PMA manufacturing processes already in place, according to company officials.

FAA Regulations require PAST to submit for PMA approval on the parts under its name so company officials say they have been working closely with their FAA- DER and FAA-Engineering Office to bring these parts back into the market in the shortest time possible.

In the interim, PAST has modified and re-launched the former Heinol and Associates, Piper Plastic website in order to display the parts.

For more information: Piper-Plastic.com or PremierAerostore.com or 866-865-1262.
