Awarded 2022
Best aircraft
Best aircraft
maintenance company.
In 2022 Heavy Metal Air was named Best Aircraft Maintenance Company in West Harrison, New York. It's recognition of the same thing we tell every customer: the work gets done right, gets signed off properly, and comes back on schedule.
One award doesn't fly anybody home. But it does say that the people whose aircraft we look after, and the community we operate in, noticed the standard we hold. We've kept it there since.
