Metro Aviation in Lafayette, Louisiana, has expanded, creating Metro Gulf, a new division that adds fixed-wing aircraft to the company’s list of completion services.
Metro Gulf provides software and equipment upgrades, inspections and engineering, avionics support, full airframe rewiring, structural modifications, paint services, and more, according to company officials. The new division holds its own Part 145 Certificate and will provide maintenance, repair, and avionics services to Metro’s existing fixed-wing and rotor-wing fleet, as well as outside customers.
The new company is the result of the acquisition of Avionics Solutions. Joey Calandra and the rest of the Avionics Solutions team have joined the new company.
With the creation of Metro Gulf, Metro Aviation now has three maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) facilities, including PAC in Mount Pleasant, Pennsylvania, Metro’s headquarters in Shreveport, Louisiana, and Metro Gulf.
