To facilitate repairs on aircraft heading to the PGA’s U.S. Open, Altus Aerospace will station one of its mobile repair vans and crew at Gabreski Westhampton Beach Airport, near the tournament venue.

With professional golf’s U.S. Open Championship slated to start later this month at the Shinnecock Hills Golf Club in Southampton on New York’s Long Island, private aircraft traffic into nearby Francis S. Gabreski Airport (KFOK) is expected to rise. To support that tempo of operations, Altus Aerospace will be providing dedicated on-field maintenance support throughout the four days of the tournament, which begins on June 18.

Based at nearby Long Island MacArthur Airport (KISP), Altus—an FAA Part 145-certified repair station as well as an Embraer authorized service center—offers scheduled maintenance support and service coordination for customers throughout the metro New York area, including engine overhaul and repair and avionics services. The company will position one of its mobile service vans and crew at KFOK and will provide AOG support, diagnostic troubleshooting, and line maintenance from factory-trained technicians.
