"This past year we have been working diligently to increase our access to engine material to offer more comprehensive solutions to our clients," said Kevin Lenz, SVP of Powerplants for AvAir. "Our Asset Management Program was a great option for IAI to maximize their return on the asset by tapping into the growing material demand from our customers.
