Dallas-based Jets MRO has tripled its technician workforce and become the largest employer at Dallas Executive Airport (KRBD) following the expansion of its FAA Part 145 repair station capabilities. The company attributes its rapid growth to a “people first” operating model that prioritizes technician welfare amid widespread industry labor shortages.
The company's FAA certification allows it to perform maintenance, preventive maintenance, and alterations on aircraft and components, including Beechjets, Bombardier Challengers and Learjets, Cessna Citations, and Hawkers. Its expanded workforce enables a broader focus on platforms including the Cessna Citation 500 series and X, Challenger 300 and 600 series, and Learjet 45.
“Our approach has always been simple: take care of your people, and they’ll take care of your customers,” said CEO Suresh Narayanan. “This philosophy isn’t just about doing the right thing—it’s proven to be our most effective business strategy.”
The company’s latest milestone follows its <a href="https://www.ainonline.com/aviation-news/business-aviation/2025-04-18/dallas-area-mro-receives-faa-engine-mx-approval">engine repair certification earlier this year</a>, allowing onsite and mobile powerplant services across North Texas. That approval marked a shift toward full-spectrum support, a strategy Narayanan said will reduce downtime and improve service continuity.
