Meritt Aviation

Meritt Aviation is a corporate jet parts supplier in Yukon, Oklahoma, at 12401 Meritt Avenue. The company tears down airplanes to build an inventory of overhauled parts. It stocks overhauled, new and as removed parts for corporate jets. It focuses on the Beechjet, Gulfstream, Hawker, Citation and King Air.

The parts list is broad. It covers hydraulic components with DER approved repairs, complete thrust reversers and doors, wheels and brakes, landing gear doors and flight controls, modulator and bleed air valves and electromechanical actuators. Items for Beechjet and Hawker aircraft include landing gear doors, elevators, rudders, radomes and flaps. The company says it is the only source for re-cored primary heat exchangers for the Beechjet and Hawker 400XP, and it stocks heat exchangers for other aircraft. It says its actuators cost well below OEM prices.

Customers fall into four groups. Part 135 maintenance companies get hard to find parts that larger suppliers overlook. Overhaul and repair stations get help to develop DER approved, long-term fixes for problem parts. Corporate jet fleet managers and owners can use cost saving rotables and replacements. Government and military fleets can buy replacement parts for the T-1A Jayhawk.

The company runs a family of web addresses for each jet type, such as BeechjetAOG, GulfstreamAOG, HawkerAOG, CitationAOG and KingAirAOG. It points out that parts not shown on the site may still be in stock, and asks people to call. The site also invites visitors to call to buy or sell inventory. A sales phone line and an email contact are on the site, together with a team page and a short video.
