FAA REVOKES REPAIR STATION CERTIFICATE OF XTRA AEROSPACE
November 25, 2019
On October 25, 2019, the FAA issued an order revoking the repair station certificate of Xtra Aerospace, LLC (“Xtra”), a repair provider in South Florida, for making repairs beyond the list of parts acceptable to the FAA that it was capable of repairing, and also for failing to comply with Federal Aviation Regulations procedures in its repair station manual. FAA began its investigation of Xtra in November 2018. The agency determined that from November 2009 to May 2019, Xtra failed to complete and retain records in accordance with procedures in its repair station manual to support parts on its capability list. Additionally, the company was unable to demonstrate that it had adequate facilities, tools, test equipment, technical publications, and trained and qualified employees to repair parts on its capability list.
