FROM THE CEO
Hello Aviation and Ground Support World – As most of you know the NBAA show in Orlando was a great success, especially for Stinar. It’s always great to learn a new business, make new friends and be continuously wowed with what goes on in our industry. We displayed a product that Stinar has been producing for decades, the BE-813 towable stairs and we launched a new passenger transport cart, the Stinar Stagecoach at the show.
Let me tell you the reason for the creation of the Stinar Stagecoach. Not all FBOs and airports have the luxury of transporting passengers in Mercedes busses or Porsche Panameras. Some, at best, have golf carts with little or no room for luggage on the back of a fold down seat. Most of the time, the luggage must be delivered to the pass through on a hotel luggage cart. It works, but there are a whole lot of negatives that go with it. We created Stinar Stagecoach after being asked by a few customers for some type of all-encompassing transport vehicle. Stinar Stagecoach seats up to 6 passengers and has dedicated space for 4 sets of golf clubs or gun cases, 4 sets of skis with boots, and plenty of luggage space for all your cargo. All this and protection from the elements for a mere fraction of the cost of a Mercedes or Porche. Take a look, we think you’ll agree it’s one of those “why didn’t I think of that?” units. As always, it comes with the Stinar three-year warranty.
Speaking of Stinar’s warranty, I would like to take a moment to remind everyone of our warranties, we have two. First is the Stinar Standard warranty and the other is what we like to call the Stinar Family warranty. The Stinar Standard warranty is just that, our standard 3-year warranty on Stinar manufactured parts. The Family warranty is where it gets fun. We all know s#!t happens, and some days it happens a lot. We get that, and if you are in need of parts, give us a call, tell us your story and we will work with you. Now if you say “We were just driving across the tarmac and it broke!”, pretty sure that will fall under the Standard warranty and more work will be involved for both parties. But for those “You’re not going to believe what happened!” moments, we understand and as a family-owned business we can relate, sometimes STUFF JUST HAPPENS! Need more info, just reach out.
Well, I have taken up enough of your time. Enjoy the upcoming holidays and remember it’s budget planning time so make sure to leave some room in there for nothing but the best, Stinar Ground Support Equipment. Talk to you in a couple of months, until then, take care.

Stinar Continues To Help Fbos Expand & Evolve
Cleveland-Hopkins International Airport
Jets FBO in conjunction with their partner company MRK Aviation, took delivery of a new 2022 Stinar SPS-3518 passenger stairway to grow their commercial charter operations at Cleveland-Hopkins International Airport. Ground support equipment is not in the spotlight like a winning football team. The ground support team doesn’t even make the roster. When it comes to commercial air travel, proper ground support equipment is your powerful offensive line and the FBO employees are the quarterbacks that keep the entire operation moving. From passenger stairs to lavatory and water service vehicles, numerous scissor lifts offering maintenance and cabin services, Stinar has the lineup to help your operation win!
