APAS is exhibiting at ACPC 2026 in Orlando (Aug 29–Sep 1). Meet our team to talk landing gear, RAT, component MRO, DER repairs and 24/7 AOG support.
APAS will be at the Air Carriers Purchasing Conference (ACPC) 2026, taking place August 29–September 1 at the Grande Lakes Resort in Orlando, Florida.
A bit of history. Founded in 1956, ACPC is one of the aviation industry's longest-running events for airline purchasing and materials teams. What began as a forum for regional carriers that wanted a space of their own has grown, over nearly seven decades, into a major international conference that brings together buyers and sellers of aviation goods and services from around the world. That legacy is exactly why it matters: ACPC is where operators and their supply partners meet to solve the real problem of keeping fleets flying.
This year's theme, “Beyond Boundaries — The Next Era of Air Travel,” captures that spirit — and it's why we'll be there.
As an FAA & EASA Part 145 repair station, APAS supports operators across the component lifecycle:
Component lead times and unplanned removals are among the hardest variables to manage in an operation. Our focus is simple: keep your components in service, protect your dispatch reliability, and give procurement teams a certified partner they can call — including in an AOG.

Yes. APAS is an FAA & EASA Part 145 approved repair station providing component MRO for commercial aviation operators worldwide.
A landing gear overhaul is the full event — complete disassembly, inspection to the manual, replacement of life-limited parts, re-plating and re-finishing, reassembly and certification — that returns a leg to a known, airworthy baseline. APAS performs landing gear overhaul and repair under its Part 145 approvals.
A Ram Air Turbine (RAT) is an emergency device that deploys to provide power if an aircraft loses its primary sources. APAS provides RAT repair, testing and exchange, including in-house wind tunnel testing.
A DER (Designated Engineering Representative) repair is an approved alternative repair used when standard OEM data doesn't apply. A DER-engineered repair can restore and extend the value of a component instead of replacing it.
Yes. APAS provides 24/7 AOG (Aircraft on Ground) support to help operators protect dispatch reliability when an aircraft is grounded and time is critical.
