Latin America has emerged as a key market for Universal Turbine Parts (UTP), which lays claim to being the world’s leading independent supplier of Pratt & Whitney Canada PW100 and PT6 overhauled engines and components. In addition to selling parts for the turboprop and turboshaft powerplants, the U.S. company (Booth 1009) sells overhauled engines from its stock. It also offers an overhaul management service through which it will handle all aspects of getting a client’s engine overhauled by a network of leading repair stations around the world.

The overhauled engines and components are fully covered by FAA dual-release approval and carry the required 8130tags. UTP’s 50,000-sq-ft (4,645-sq-m) warehouse in Prattville, Alabama, is fully stocked with PW100 and PT6 engines, parts and accessories. The company has a Spanish-speaking customer support representative on staff. It also now has a sales representative based near São Paulo, Brazil, and two more based in Colombia covering that country plus others including Venezuela, Panama, Peru, Guatemala and Ecuador.
