C&S Propeller has completed its relocation to a new 18,000 foot facility in Fort Worth, Texas. The company started construction of its new 18,000 square foot facility over the summer. The shop was developed and outfitted with proven, efficient processes and tools. The company provides maintenance, repair and overhaul of the 54H60 propeller system used on the Lockheed C-130 Hercules military aircraft and its commercial variant, the L-100.
Providing a single-source point of propeller system MRO, the scope of services offered include comprehensive aspects of the entire propeller propulsion system. These systems include prop blades, hubs, valve housings, pump housings and spinners.
Buddy Tobin, C&S’s vice president and general manager, has received positive feedback from customers on the new facility and its location: “Our value proposition to the market has always been to deliver quicker turn times…it’s not unusual to get an urgent call on an evening or weekend from somewhere in the world.”
