What paperwork comes with your parts?

Every part ships with AS9100 and AS9120 documentation, plus manufacturer certificates and material traceability. We share all of this with your quote, not after you have already paid.

How fast can you get me a quote?

Most requests get a response within 24 hours. If you have an unplanned outage, let us know and we will try to turn it around the same day.

Do you ship outside the US?

Yes, we ship to over 150 countries. We handle the export paperwork for turbine and control system components, including items with dual-use restrictions.

What is a CAGE code and why does it matter?

It is a unique ID for the manufacturer or supplier of a part, used in defense and government procurement. For turbine buyers, it confirms you are getting the part from the company that actually made it, not a lookalike from some unverified source.

How do you stop counterfeit parts?

Every part goes through inspection and documentation checks before it ships. If we cannot verify where a part came from, we do not stock it, no matter how badly someone needs it.

Can you find obsolete or discontinued parts?

That is actually where we do our best work. Legacy Mark V control cards, discontinued combustion hardware, older Speedtronic components. Our network of 1,200 suppliers means we can often find parts that other distributors have given up on.

Quality Assurance

Quality Is Our Foundation

Every part we supply has been inspected, documented, and traced to its original source. We hold ourselves to the standards that keep aircraft flying safely.

Our Commitments

Quality at Every Step

100% Inspection on Every Order

No part ships without a physical inspection by our in-house QA team. We verify part numbers, CAGE codes, NSN markings, condition codes, and cross-reference against OEM documentation before any item is packaged.

Full-Time QA Department

Our Quality Assurance department is staffed with certified AS9120 auditors and former OEM quality engineers — not contractors, not part-time reviewers. Quality is never outsourced.

Our Process

From Supplier to Your Hangar

Every part passes through five rigorous checkpoints before shipment.

Step 1

Supplier Qualification

All suppliers undergo a rigorous vetting process: financial review, AS9120 certification check, reference verification, and initial sample inspection before being added to our Approved Supplier List.

Step 2

Receiving Inspection

Every inbound shipment is quarantined, logged, and inspected within 24 hours of arrival. Parts are compared against purchase orders and original OEM datasheets.

Step 3

Functional Testing

Serviceable and overhauled parts undergo functional testing per OEM test procedures where test equipment is available. Results are logged and traceable.

Step 4

Documentation Review

All serialized parts require full documentation package: CoC, airworthiness approval tags (8130-3, EASA Form 1, or equivalent), and maintenance records where applicable.

Step 5

Packaging & Shipping

Approved parts are packaged to MIL-SPEC-2073 standards, labeled with part number and NSN, and shipped with a full document package including the CoC and packing list.

Anti-Counterfeit Policy

We take an uncompromising stance against suspect counterfeit parts.

AeroTurbineSpare fully complies with the requirements of AS5553 Rev B (Counterfeit Electrical, Electronic, and Electromechanical Parts) and AS6174 (Counterfeit Materiel Risk Mitigation for Non-Electronic Parts). All parts are sourced exclusively from OEMs, authorized distributors, or approved independent sources on our Approved Supplier List.

Incoming parts from independent distributors undergo additional inspection including external visual examination per IDEA-STD-1010, documentation review, and in cases of doubt, X-ray, acetone testing, or third-party laboratory analysis. Any suspect counterfeit part (SCRP) is immediately quarantined, documented, and reported to the original supplier and relevant authorities including ERAI and the U.S. DLA PQDR system.

No part that fails our anti-counterfeit screening is ever released to inventory or shipped to a customer, regardless of commercial pressure or urgency. This is non-negotiable.
