MRO Americas always hits like a whirlwind.
Three days. Thousands of conversations. A blur of booth traffic, handshakes, and problem-solving. It’s the kind of show that demands your full attention and rewards it if you’re paying close enough.
This year in Atlanta, STS Aviation Group didn’t just show up. We made statements.
We launched STS Defense Solutions, a new division led by Brian Bento, dedicated to delivering mission-ready MRO support to the global defense sector. This is about more than military maintenance. It’s about readiness, capability, and bringing STS-level expertise to the operators who need it most.
We also celebrated some key leadership moves. Ethan Steele stepped into his new role as Executive Vice President, Head of Commercial. Shane King was promoted to President of STS Aviation Services. These aren’t just titles. They’re acknowledgments of trust, vision, and years of proven leadership. STS is growing, and these two are helping guide the way forward.
And then came the big one.
STS Component Solutions was officially named a Platinum Supplier by Airline MRO Parts (AMP). Recognition like that doesn’t come easy. It’s earned through consistency, reliability, and always doing right by your partners… especially when it’s hard.
That award belongs to every member of our Material Services team who shows up early, stays late, and puts people first. To AMP, thank you for the recognition. To our crew, this one’s for you.
Between meetings and milestones, we found time to slow down, too. One night, a few of us slipped away to catch the Braves game. Just good people, good weather, and a little perspective. In moments like that, you’re reminded why this work matters. Not the business. The people behind it.
That’s always been the heartbeat of STS Aviation Group. It still is.
From nose to tail, we’re delivering solutions that keep aircraft moving and fleets mission ready… commercial and defense alike. Base maintenance. Line maintenance. Engine overhaul. Staffing. Parts. Global logistics. All of it. And all under one roof.
Atlanta was big. But what’s next will be even bigger.
See you at the next stop.
