Maintenance control
If you have a maintenance event on the road, maintenance data and assistance are provided to the shop working on the aircraft.

Common questions about Citation maintenance plans
How many inspections do I get each month?
Approximately four weekly inspections per month, depending on your flight schedule. They’re scheduled around your trips.
What isn’t covered by the monthly fee?
Additional labor for inspections, discrepancies and troubleshooting, oxygen servicing, consumables such as oil and nitrogen, parts, shipping and freight, and any approved travel. These are billed the month after the work.
Do you offer discounts for more than one aircraft?
Yes — multiple aircraft discounts apply, and each owner gets their own invoice for their own aircraft. A smaller plan may also be available on request. Get in touch and we’ll confirm pricing in a written plan.
Can you scan my logbooks?
Yes. Aircraft Records Assurance turns your logbooks and parts tags into a searchable, indexed digital record set — Records Assurance — Indexed for typed records, Records Assurance — Transcribed for handwritten logs. It’s quoted per aircraft based on the number, age and condition of the records. Learn more.
Is there a long-term contract?
No. Plans are month-to-month, and either party may cancel with 30 days’ written notice.
Do you work outside the Columbus area?
Yes. Work away from the Columbus area (CMH / OSU) may include travel expenses, which are discussed and approved in advance.
My aircraft isn’t a Citation. Can I still get a plan?
Get in touch. Pricing depends on the aircraft, its inspection program and its location, and every aircraft gets its own written plan.
Important: A maintenance plan is a professional services agreement with each owner. It is not a single operating certificate and does not replace the aircraft owner’s or operator’s responsibilities under the FARs.
