Velocity Aerospace Group

Velocity Aerospace Group is a repair and parts logistics business within Precision Aviation Group. It repairs, overhauls, modifies and exchanges aerospace systems and components for airlines and operators worldwide. Velocity works from Burbank, California and Indian Trail, North Carolina.

Velocity focuses on parts that have repeat repair problems, limited supply, long lead times or high repair costs. In those cases its engineers and technicians develop specialized repairs and alternate solutions. The company also offers part specific upgrades and custom fit modifications for airline fleets.

The Smoke Detector Upgrade and Replacement program updates Airbus fleets with newer optical smoke detectors. It replaces ionized and obsolete units and supports the work with a rotable pool. Repair, overhaul and upgrade work is done as needed.

Velocity is known for cockpit avionics and component repair. Its avionics work covers engineering for a broad range of avionics, Mode 4 test systems, and VOR and ILS test sets with IFR support. The parent group also lists flight control, navigation, communications and flight recorder services.
