Aerospace & Defense Logistics Expertise

When an aircraft is grounded, every minute carries a cost. FlashGL specializes in Aircraft-on-Ground (AOG) recovery for airlines, MRO networks, and defense contractors — moving mission-critical components from any global origin to the aircraft or maintenance bay within hours, not days.

What we move #

  • AOG rotables, avionics, and line-replaceable units (LRUs)
  • Engine components, brakes, and landing-gear assemblies
  • ITAR-controlled and dual-use defense shipments
  • Tooling, gauges, and ground-support equipment

How we deliver #

Our On-Board Couriers hand-carry time-critical parts with airside clearance, bypassing cargo-terminal delays. Dedicated AOG desks operate 24/7 with a 15-minute response commitment, while tamper-evident seals, real-time GPS tracking, and full chain-of-custody documentation protect high-value and export-controlled cargo from origin to destination.

Aircraft on Ground? We mobilize in 15 minutes.

Every minute a plane is grounded costs $10,000–$50,000. FlashGL OBC couriers hand-carry critical parts on the next available flight — guaranteed.

The Challenge

A narrow-body is AOG at a hub 8,000 km from your spares warehouse. The replacement LRU exists, but the commercial cargo cut-off has passed and the next freighter is 36 hours out. Each grounded hour cascades into cancelled rotations, stranded passengers, and SLA penalties.

Cost of delay: $10,000–$50,000 per grounded hour
Critical Urgency

The Solution

FlashGL's AOG desk takes the call, dispatches a courier to the warehouse within the hour, and hand-carries the unit on the next departure — clearing customs under an existing brokerage bond and delivering directly to the airside ramp. The aircraft returns to service the same day.
