President Scott
Balfanz founded Western Aero in
1989 after years in the commercial and
charter airline industries. “My
goals were to supply the industry not only
with parts but also with genuine customer
service, honesty and, yes, some humor.
We’ve become the go-to people for
hard to find parts.”
Kim
Balfanz, president of Western
Aero Repair Inc. and co-founder of the
Balfanz family, worked for commercial carriers
and co-owned a travel agency before establishing
her repair company. “I enjoy the
challenge of building a quality business
and having old friends from the airline
world be part of it.”
Doug
Havenhill, Production Manager,
had more than 30 years experience in aviation
before supervising the Western Aero repair
station. “Sure, it’s demanding
work, but at Western Aero, it’s also
a lot of fun. With an atmosphere that is
laid back and professional, you have the
best of both worlds.”
Luis
Rivera, director of quality control,
spent six years in the private sector and
20 in the U.S. Air Force as aircraft mechanic,
flight engineer and maintenance control
supervisor. Joining Western Aero in 1993,
he wrote the quality control and procedures
manuals. “It’s like a family
here, a great place to work.”
Debbie
Lucas, senior sales associate,
co-owned a travel agency and also worked
for commercial carriers before helping
launch Western Aero. “We built American
Dream Travel with great customer service,
and brought that philosophy here. I
enjoy working with all of our customers
from Dallas to Dubai.”
Frank
Schoeninger, material control
manager, worked for nine years as a licensed
airframe & power plant mechanic and
assistant supervisor for online maintenance
at a major commercial carrier before joining
Western Aero in 1993. “I like working
