McFarlane Aviation acquires PMA Products

McFarlane Aviation is pleased to announce the acquisition of PMA Products, Inc. For over 20 years, PMA Products and McFarlane have collaborated closely on product development, distribution, and manufacturing of critical components to support the General Aviation community. Charlie and Pam Causey built and proudly owned PMA Products, and years ago partnered with Dave McFarlane to serve the GA market, united by their shared passion for the industry. As Charlie Causey expresses, "There's no better company to take the reins of our business going forward." PMA Products produces reliable and affordable FAA-PMA approved products for a wide range of aircraft models such as Piper, Beechcraft, and Cessna, as well as PT6 turboshaft engines. The company's product line consists of hundreds of FAA-PMA products, including bolts, bearings, bushings, and seals for the landing gear, caps, seals, and gaskets for fuel systems, bearings and hinges for flight control systems, engine components, and much more. "PMA Products has a long-standing reputation for providing high-quality FAA-PMA replacement parts," said Scott Still, CEO of McFarlane. "We're very happy that Pam and Charlie have placed their trust in McFarlane to join our family of brands. Our mission remains to keep our customers flying." McFarlane currently offers over 35,000 parts to the general aviation marketplace. They are a leading provider of high-quality aircraft parts, accessories, and innovative solutions for general aviation. McFarlane is the distinguished owner of a diverse family of brands, including CJ Aviation, Flight-Resource (MT Propellers), Airforms, and their new addition of PMA Products. McFarlane is part of the General Aviation Group of Vance Street. Nicholas Janneck, Partner at Vance Street, added, "Vance Street is thrilled to partner with another leading FAA-PMA manufacturing group that provides products that every general aviation aircraft needs and frequently replaces." This acquisition further solidifies Vance Street's thesis on finding niche, highly engineered solution providers in the aerospace and defense markets. Other active investments include Jet Parts Engineering, Spectra Aandamp;D Holdings, Tempest Aero Group, and McFarlane Aviation.
