A Marana company that specializes in end-of-life care for aircraft has expanded to maintaining live aircraft and is building a major facility at the Pinal Airpark.
Jet Yard, which was acquired by a national outfit, is constructing a 30,000-square-foot aircraft facility and a 1,000-square-foot office building in anticipation of its growth in business and employment.
Acquired by Air T Inc. in 2017, Jet Yard grew its niche demolition and recycling model into storage, maintenance, sales and recycling, said president David Bixler.
