About
JKL AERO is an independent aircraft repair and aviation support company committed to helping owners keep their planes flying safely, affordably, and sustainably. With a strong focus on light aircraft and personal aviation, we specialize in servicing everything from experimental builds to trusted training models and small jets — including the DA20, PA34-220T, Cessna T206H, and the DHC-6 Twin Otter series. From our home base in Raleigh, NC, to airports in Hendersonville and RDU, we proudly support private owners, hobbyists, and underdog flyers across North Carolina and beyond.
At JKL AERO, we’re driven by more than just aviation — we’re powered by purpose. Founded by Javier “El Tucán” Kim, our company puts integrity, adaptability, and lifelong learning at the center of everything we do. Whether you’re maintaining your first aircraft or managing a complex repair, you’ll find personal service, deep industry knowledge, and a no-nonsense approach that puts your needs first.
