Aero-Dienst launches US subsidiary
Aero-Dienst is coming to North America with the launch of its US subsidiary Aero-Dienst America, the aircraft maintenance firm announced today at NBAA-BACE.
Mathias Mößner, CEO of Aero-Dienst America, told CJI establishing Aero-Dienst America forms a strategic step in the company’s long-term global expansion plan.
The initial priority is to ensure a reliable supply of spare parts, before gradually expanding its portfolio. Future services will include support for aircraft arbitrage and aviation consulting, such as pre-purchase inspections and production supervision at OEM facilities across North America.
Located in Palm Beach, Florida, Mößner said the Sunshine State ranks among the top three for business jet activity, supported by a “robust” MRO network and logistics infrastructure.
“Following political and economic uncertainty surrounding trade and tariffs, we see now as the ideal moment to strengthen our transatlantic presence,” said Mößner. “With cross-border demand for parts and services at record levels, entering the market now allows Aero-Dienst America to bridge supply and service capabilities between Europe and North America more efficiently than ever.”
André Ebach, CEO of Aero-Dienst in Germany, said: “Establishing our US subsidiary underscores Aero-Dienst’s commitment to providing outstanding quality and excellent service in the aviation industry. We look forward to contributing our expertise to this dynamic market and further reinforcing our role as a trusted partner in aviation.”
Starting in mid-2026, Aero-Dienst America’s service portfolio will be expanded to include the professional cleaning and care of business jets, ranging from hygienic cleaning to interior and exterior detailing and full-service aircraft washing.
Mößner explains: “Aircraft detailing and cabin hygiene services show strong and growing demand. ‘Ramp appeal’ matters—not just for image but for asset preservation. Our detailing and cabin refresh programmes help protect aircraft interiors and exteriors from environmental impact while maintaining pristine presentation and long-term value.”
Despite its scale, supply chain constraints and OEM backlogs create ongoing gaps in parts availability, particularly for legacy aircraft, said Mößner. “We aim to leverage our European logistics experience to supply quality-certified components, support MROs and CAMOs on both continents and offer consulting and arbitrage services for new and pre-owned aircraft,” he noted.
Operators and MROs often face delays securing critical parts for ageing aircraft types such as Learjets and Challenger 300/600 series, according to Mößner. By establishing a dedicated value-based supply stream in the US, he believes Aero-Dienst America can support maintenance facilities in securing the components needed to maintain schedules and support AOG situations efficiently.
Looking ahead, Mößner is clear that, within five years, Aero-Dienst America will be a globally recognised supplier in the aircraft parts market. He also believes it will be “trusted” partner in detailing and cleaning services and a “leading” consulting provider for aircraft delivery and lifecycle management in the US. “Our commitment to precision, transparency, and client trust will continue to define our growth,” he said.
