Gulfstream Aerospace recently opened a facility at Phoenix-Mesa Gateway Airport to meet growing customer demand. The new facility, which is located just across the airport features a large hangar that can hold multiple Gulfstream large-cabin aircraft; customer office space; a tool room; and space for parts inventory.
Derek Zimmerman, president of Gulfstream Customer Support said, “We received a tremendous amount of interest from our customers when we announced our new Mesa service center this past November. Anticipating that interest, we were already working with Phoenix-Mesa Gateway Airport officials to begin providing maintenance repair and overhaul options as soon as possible. Gulfstream’s Mesa Service Center is the latest strategic investment we have made to expand and modernize our facilities in support of the growing Gulfstream fleet around the world. Our goal is to provide our customers with the best service when and where they need it.”
The facility, located at 6253 South Sossaman Road in Mesa, will offer a variety of routine inspections and maintenance for all Gulfstream in-service aircraft. Gulfstream’s Mesa service facility also will offer aircraft-on-ground (AOG)/drop-in support to address any immediate customer needs. This new facility will help prepare tomorrow’s workers for high-paying jobs in the fast-growing aerospace sector. Gulfstream already has more than 60 employees working at the Mesa facility and plans to ultimately grow to around 200 employees once the new larger facility opens next year.
