CRS Jet Spares Fills Legacy Jet Support Niche
CRS Jet Spares saw its Asia business grow 13 percent in 2015 compared to 2014.

CRS Jet Spares specializes in supplying all of the parts and components needed to keep business jets flying, but primarily those aircraft that are no longer covered by the manufacturer’s warranty. Although this might seem counterproductive in China, where buyers seem to prefer newer aircraft, CRS is seeing plenty of growth in its China and Asia Pacific business.

The company’s 2015 business in that region increased about 13 percent from 2014, said Jack Caloras, CRS vice president of sales and business development. “That was in spite of everything we’ve been hearing about that part of the world. There’s a lot of negativity we’re hearing, especially about new aircraft sales. For us it was about increasing services and our presence. We’re just trying to do more and be more involved with the local community, and this has paid off.”
