TESTIMONIALS

Our proven record of excellence in the maintenance, repair, and overhaul of turbine engines did seemingly little to offset the high costs of various aviation insurance products. We were pleased that AAIRRG was able to extend coverage... at a fraction of the cost of our previous insurance.

Sharrock Dermott, CFO
Carpe Diem Aviation Services of Missouri, Inc.

… it was good news to us when we found and decided to join AAIRRG. Rick made a tedious process enjoyable; communication was easy as we spoke the same “lingo”; he knew exactly what we needed and why and best of all, AAIRRG helped us in reducing the cost of superfluous expenses considerably.

Joe Zaribaf, President
Preferred Composite Services, Inc.

Just a short note to thank you and the organization for all your help in securing insurance through AAIRRG. I have been a Part 145 Repair Station since 1987. Obviously one can not conduct business in this industry without insurance. After bouncing around for several years with individuals that were not qualified to provide the type of insurance I really needed, it was very refreshing to make contact with both yourself and AAIRRG.

Bill Bailey, President
Acme Coatings, Inc.

Our customer driven insurance needs changed several times in the middle of a contract negotiation. AAIRRG was able to adjust the product to match the moving demand in a timely fashion. AAIRRG’s ability to quickly move on the fly allowed us to secure a sizeable contract with this customer.

We highly recommend AAIRRG as a solution to any qualified Repair Station.

Greg Braselton, President
Action Research Corporation (ARC)

We have been long time supporters of ARSA, and AAIRRG is another shining example of their commitment to the repair station community. Through AAIRG we have been able to significantly reduce the cost of our liability insurance while enjoying great customer service.

Barry Muhler, Director of Operations
Aviation Repair Resources, Inc.

AAIRGG has given our family what could be called "sleep better" insurance. A.A.I.R.G.G.'s rates provided us with a partner who will be watching our back. We can again move forward and begin to concentrate on building our business and servicing our customers, our real employer.

Zaven Sevoian, Owner/General Manager

EASW is very pleased with the insurance product you provide. Furthermore, the enhancement to our bottom line this first year was substantial. Next year and beyond will add even more profits, due to additional savings under your program. In this economy, we are happy to have fouud a way to reduce our cost of insurance and that the same time improve the level of coverage for our clientele...

Edward Waske, Jr., COO/Accounting Manager
Engine & Airframe Solutions Worldwide, LLC

Please extend our gratitude to Rick [Crebs], whom we see as a friend and the key remover of our skepticism. AAIRRG initiated, organized and sold all of the needed facets of a practical, reasonably priced liability insurance program, not a simple task. We now have an affordable measure of customer comfort which, given our history, may have only to provide that valuable purpose...

Howard Halpin, Treasurer
Turbine Weld, Inc.

The AAIRRG has been easy to work with and has provided us with top-notch service along with saving us over 35% from what we had been paying. We’ve examined their board of directors and find that these dedicated individuals are from some of the most respected repair stations in the industry.

Charles Perkins, President
Aero-Mach Labs, Inc.

AAIRRG has saved TPS & TFS approximately half of what our previous carrier charged for the same amount of coverage. Your personal attention, knowledge of the aviation industry, and expeditious service level are outstanding. I believe the captive insurance for our industry is a true cost saver during a time when finding reductions in the cost of operations is very difficult.

Bernard E. Rookey, President
Texas Pneumatic Systems, Inc.

The aviation “insurance business” is not our specialty. For a number of years we had estimated that our former insurance was too high, but due to limited choices and limited knowledge, we didn’t make any changes. From the start, Rick Crebs and AAIRRG have been a pleasure to work with. Rick took the time to really educate us on the basics of the aviation insurance business, and he was there to answer all of our questions as our understanding grew. AAIRRG made the transition from our old company easy as well. As a result, we were able to save 53% on our premiums and get the benefits of being a shareholder in the company as well. I’m happy to recommend AAIRRG to others.

Mike Ivans, Senior Manager
Commercial Business Operations
Shimadzu Precision Instruments, Inc.

A short note to thank you for your assistance and guidance in attaining liability insurance for our company. It is obvious that your company made the process very "user friendly" and most importantly completed it expeditiously. Again, thank you for all your assistance.

Aviation products insurance coverage has always been a major expense for our company with few markets even willing to consider writing a Propeller Repair Station involved in Air Carrier support. Thanks to AAIRRG,we're breathing a bit easier on the cost side and have confidence that as the group gains experience that the rates may even go lower.

- John DeJoris, President
Aircraft Propeller Service, Inc.

I would like to thank you for the insurance articles that I have been receiving from you via email. The articles are both interesting, as well as informative.

- Kathleen M. Dawes, Vice President
Ameritech Industries, Inc.

I feel confident that the founding members, board of directors, and management companies have put together an affordable solution to provide excellent insurance coverage at a much lower cost.

- Charles Perkins, President
Aero-Mach Labs, Inc.

Our inquiries about the premiums and explanations of coverages were addressed immediately with either return e-mails or phone calls; also a draft was sent for our approval in ample time for us to discuss and make decisions before our previous coverage was due to expire.
