Location: Collinsville, OK (Tulsa metro)
Schedule: Monday-Friday, 8am-5pm
Compensation: Competitive hourly pay benefits
We are a specialized aircraft engine overhaul shop focused on piston engines, known for delivering industry-leading quality and service to our customers.
We’re a small, tight-knit team. Every person here plays a critical role in the work we do and the reputation we’ve built.

We’re looking for an experienced mechanic to join our team working on piston aircraft engine overhauls – primarily Lycoming and Continental engines.
