Expands Lease Holdings At French Vally Airport In CA
Ikhana Aircraft Services (Ikhana) said Monday it has implemented
Component Control’s Quantum MRO and Logistics Solution
package to support management of the manufacturing, maintenance,
repair, and overhaul operations at Ikhana’s production
facilities in Murrieta, CA. Quantum will be used across all
divisions of Ikhana Aircraft Services to streamline business
operations, improve logistics, and enhance our customer service
offering.
"Quantum was chosen as the best package to provide functionality
and management of our operations and to support expanded sales of
our proprietary STC’s for the Twin Otter fleet." said Marcos
Carvalhal, Vice President and CFO at Ikhana. "Incorporating the
Quantum MRO and Logistics Solution enhances our position as an
integrator of special missions modifications allowing Ikhana to
continue to focus on our customer’s unique requirements."
The company also recently completed lease negotiations have
allowed an increase in the footprint of their production facilities
at the French Valley airport (F70) in Murrieta, CA just north of
San Diego. The expansion follows addition of a 20,000 square foot
hangar completed in 2008 and provides room to support continued
growth for the operation. “Completion of the lease is one key
step in meeting our future growth plans for supporting the special
missions market and our DHC-6 Twin Otter customer base.” said
John Zublin, President/CEO of Ikhana. “Plans for an added
facility are on the drawing board, which will be executed as our
business expands.”
