Textron Aviation is celebrating 35 years of continuous operation at its Milwaukee Service Center, located at Milwaukee Mitchell International Airport (KMKE). The facility provides maintenance and service for Cessna, Beechcraft, and Hawker aircraft across the U.S. Midwest and beyond.
Established in 1990 as a Cessna Citation Service Center, the Milwaukee facility has evolved into a full-service operation supporting nearly all Textron Aviation aircraft models. The center’s 42,000-sq-ft hangar can accommodate up to 24 aircraft, and iIts team of technicians provides scheduled and unscheduled maintenance, airframe inspections, avionics upgrades, engine overhauls, and pre-purchase evaluations.
In addition, the Milwaukee team operates two mobile service units and a go team to deliver on-site support wherever customers need assistance. Two employees have worked at the facility since it opened, contributing to the center’s continuity and expertise.
“Marking 35 years in Milwaukee is a proud milestone for our team and is a reflection of the trust our customers place in us,” said facility general manager Steve Kruk. “Throughout the decades, our employees have built lasting relationships that go far beyond aircraft maintenance. These bonds are the reason customers continue to return—and they’re what inspire our team to show up every day with pride, purpose, and a commitment to excellence.”
Textron Aviation’s global network includes 20 company-owned service centers, more than 300 authorized facilities, and about 50 mobile service units.
