According to the Federal Aviation Administration, there are over 700 registered aircraft in Western New York, with 106 located in Niagara County, highlighting the substantial market need.
The company’s leadership brings a wealth of experience and strong relationships with local aircraft owners. One of the owners is an FAA-certified mechanic and inspector, ensuring that the maintenance services meet the highest standards of safety and professionalism. Falcon Aircraft Maintenance has also obtained approval to operate at the airport from the Niagara Frontier Transportation Authority.
This expansion builds upon Falcon Aviation’s established presence in the region.
