About Us
Founded in 1989 in Colorado, we quickly became known for our expertise with 707 aircraft. Over the past two decades, we’ve expanded our operations to include a woman owned repair facility. We’ve grown our inventory and knowledge base to a wider range of aircraft, including DC-10 and KC-10 parts. Whether you need an expert opinion on a commercial or military part or you need a fair price, we do our best to accommodate your request and earn your trust – a value we’ve stood behind since we opened our doors.
At Western Aero, we understand fleets are aging. These planes will continue to play a crucial role for military and commercial use, and it is our pledge to ensure you have access to superior parts. We understand that time is money and the clock is always ticking. Almost all parts orders get shipped the same day the order is placed.
Exceeding Standards of Excellence
Our reputation for impeccable quality and customer service precedes us. We’ve maintained our focus as we’ve grown, satisfying customer needs and earning certification as an ISO-AS9120 accredited vendor. Our standards are so strong, we’ve become a benchmark for the very best service in the industry.
In addition to complying with FAA, ASA, and EASA standards, we qualify for GSA contracts under FAR Part 19.001 guidelines and ALC and AFB military set-asides. We provide a full one-year warranty with all parts that we repair.
