While working on Sabreliner aircraft is a sentimental favorite for long-time technicians at Perryville, they also have developed a reputation for quality maintenance and modifications for the Learjet 30 series. Work on that line includes accessory and component overhaul and repair, along with conducting more than 70 major inspections in the past three years and servicing 59 Learjet 35s for the U.S. Air Force during the federal government's 2005-06 fiscal year. The company expects to perform 50 additional 12-year Learjet inspections over the next four years. While Sabreliner Corp. has established impressive credentials with the Learjet line from Bombardier Aerospace, it also has two direct links to Bombardier's new aircraft production. As a subcontractor to Bombardier, Sabreliner manufactures a variety of sheet metal assemblies for Challenger series aircraft. As a subcontractor to Midcoast Aviation, which completes many of the newly produced green Challengers and Globals, Sabreliner provides specialty services such as wire harness assembly and cabinetry construction. Sabreliner also has begun forging a mutually productive relationship with Sikorsky Aircraft Corp., the respected helicopter manufacturer, through its work for other subcontractors on the famed Black Hawk helicopter and is now manufacturing parts for the H-92 Superhawk and the CH-53 helicopters. At Perryville's sister operation in nearby Ste. Genevieve, Mo., Sabreliner is expanding its support of various 707 aircraft under subcontracts with The Boeing Company. Since summer, 2002, the Ste. Genevieve operation has been overhauling flight control components for the Air Force fleet of KC-135s, used primarily for aerial refueling. Sabreliner Corp. designed and installed an innovative monorail system to facilitate easy movement of KC-135 horizontal stabilizers throughout the company's Ste. Genevieve.
