StandardAero’s Los Angeles engine shop has been serving the business aviation community for 62 years. It was started by Cliff Garrett in 1946 as AiResearch Aviation on what was then known as Mine Field, later to become Los Angeles International Airport (LAX). The company built a solid reputation for maintenance, including retrofit programs for the Falcon 20, Hawker 125 series and 731 JetStar.

In 1985 it was renamed Garrett Aviation and subsequently acquired by Landmark Aviation in 2005. In 2007 Landmark Aviation’s MRO services, Associated Air Center, TSS Aviation and Standard Aero, itself founded in 1911, came together to form today’s StandardAero.
