About Us

Philosophy

G&N began its operation in 1961. This has been our philosophy from the outset: our products and services will always be the finest in the industry. We maintain this philosophy on a daily basis with the concentrated and dedicated efforts of each of our employees.

Our Promise

We give you the best quality and finest service available. With this extra effort, we believe that we have set the standards for an engine overhaul. All of our engines are produced to new fits and tolerances; service limits are produced to new fits and tolerances; service limit overhauls are not an acceptable alternative at G&N Aircraft.

The Difference

We are able to control our production and turn-around times by maintaining the vast majority of our rebuild functions in-house which maximizes our capability and quality of service to you.  At G&N Aircraft, we are also pilots and we are passionate about delivering high-quality services to our customers
