FORT LAUDERDALE, Florida — Quality Aircraft Accessories (QAA) has reopened its expanded Fort Lauderdale repair station focusing on maintenance, repair, and overhaul of general aviation accessories, principally magnetos and exhaust systems.
Located close to Fort Lauderdale Executive Airport (KFXE), the facility is an extension of QAA’s main operations and headquarters in Tulsa, Oklahoma, company officials explain. The Fort Lauderdale operation, which services the Southeastern U.S. and South America, also distributes general aviation products from a variety of manufacturers.
After being shut down for several months for renovations, the Fort Lauderdale reopening features a larger facility and additional employees, as well as the addition of welding services, primarily to accommodate aircraft engine exhaust system refurbishment, according to company officials.
With the reopening, QAA has been able to add an onsite dedicated customer service rep, welding technicians, and a quality chief inspector in Fort Lauderdale.
The $1 million expansion includes a new conveyor system, paint booth, drying oven, blast cabinet, workbenches, fixtures, and a full range of welding equipment and capabilities.
