Av8, a Victor Sierra company, is pleased to announce a five-year landing gear maintenance agreement with Wheels Up, a leading global provider of on-demand private aviation, covering overhaul and exchange support for its Phenom 300 fleet. Wheels Up operates one of the largest Phenom 300 fleets in the world, with expected expansion plans. Av8 will support the program through its landing gear exchange pool, the largest in the industry, allowing aircraft to return to service quickly without waiting on individual overhauls. Av8’s support is backed by over 300 FAA-PMA approvals for the Phenom platform and a broad portfolio of in-house RSDER-approved repair procedures, allowing Av8 to offer flat-rate pricing across the program and the longest warranty ever offered on Phenom 300 landing gear.

“This agreement is another great addition to the long-term partnerships we’ve built with major operators,” said Bryan Stamp, President, Victor Sierra. “A five-year commitment from a fleet this size reflects the trust Wheels Up has placed in our team, and supporting it exclusively through our exchange pool is exactly the model that has made these partnerships work.”

“In Q2, Wheels Up achieved the highest Completion Rate and On-Time Performance in our company’s history, and partnerships like this one are how we sustain that standard as the fleet grows,” said Dave Holtz, Chief Operating Officer, Wheels Up. “Av8’s support brings added predictability to our Phenom 300 operations, and we look forward to working with their team as we continue to scale our modernized fleet.”

Av8’s recently acquired pool of rotatable inventory will allow them to support the program from day one, ensuring no interruption to Wheels Up’s operations as the agreement begins. The agreement reflects both companies’ commitment to a long-term relationship as Wheels Up’s fleet continues to grow.
