Salt River Aviation

Salt River Aviation is an aircraft parts distributor based in Chandler, Arizona. Founded in 2006 by Greg and Annie Crill, the company specializes in auxiliary power units (APUs) and airframe parts. It began with a focus on APU expertise and has since expanded into an aftermarket airframe parts division. The firm's growth includes an increase from 3,000 square feet in Gilbert to over 40,000 square feet of office and warehouse space in Chandler.

The company serves customers in the commercial aviation industry, supporting a wide range of aircraft types. Their inventory includes GTCP and TSCP series APUs, covering units such as GTCP 131-9A and 131-9B, GTCP 331 series, GTCP 36-150 series, TSCP 700 series, as well as PW901, APS 2000, and APS 3200 units. Airframe parts come from current aircraft teardowns and support includes Boeing 737 Classic and NG, 747-400, 757, 767, and 777. Their Airbus teardown inventory includes A319, A320, A321, A330, and A340 models.

Salt River Aviation offers 24/7 AOG support to reduce downtime for operators. The company emphasizes quality with ASA-100 accreditation as listed in the ASA FAA AC 00-56B accreditation database.

The leadership team has over 100 years of combined aerospace experience. The company operates an affiliate APU teardown facility called TASC, which supports its inventory and services. Annual sales exceed 20 million dollars, and the staff consists of more than 18 employees. Customer service and competitive pricing are key business values promoted on their website.

Salt River Aviation is involved in both purchasing and sales of APUs and airframe parts, supporting repairs and inventory management. Their ongoing communication is supported by separate contact lines for RFQ and AOG inquiries. The company operates out of Chandler but its parts and services likely serve customers across the United States and beyond due to the wide range of aircraft supported.

The website also references their affiliate Aviocraft, which provides MRO repair services focused on cost savings. Salt River Aviation publishes updates on industry events and new product arrivals. They encourage subscriptions to their news and events newsletters for the latest information.
