M7 Worldwide Aircraft doing Metros and Merlins again
Life for Fairchild Metro and Merlin owners is looking up.

Life for Fairchild Metro and Merlin owners is looking up. Maintenance, repair and overhaul options for the airplanes have now expanded to include Springfield, Mo.-based Worldwide Aircraft Services, which M7 Aerospace bought last year. According to Jim McClean, president and general manager, the company has a solid history upon which it has built the new service.

“In January 1987 my partner David Dunham and I started the company in Wichita. At the time I was vice president of maintenance for Air Midwest. I’d worked for them for about 16 years with the exception of a brief stint as a field service rep for Beech,” McClean told AIN. “The company started strong out of the gate and after seven months of success I left Air Midwest to run Worldwide full time.”
