James A Staley Company Information

The James A. Staley Company is one of the leading manufacturers specializing in Aircraft Ground Support Test Equipment. Our company is located in Carmel, New York, approximately 60 miles north of New York City. All major airports are little more than a one hour drive away. A leader in aviation ground support equipment at the time, American Avitron had an international marketing base with extensive military and commercial contracts such as building complete pneumatic facilities for Pan American Airways, Alitalia, Eastern Airlines, etc. Lear Siegler, American Avitron’s parent company, decided to redirect its efforts and made the decision to break up the company. This re-organization lead to the formation of an independent firm, the James A. Staley Company, which dedicated itself to the design and production of high quality aircraft test equipment and facilities at reasonable prices. Recently completed construction has brought total plant floor area to over 17,000 square feet of manufacturing and office space. We possess complete facilities here for all phases of design and manufacture. This includes the essential process shops required – metal working, welding, painting, wiring, etc. Additional ground-breaking is currently underway to allow further expansion in the future. A company warehouse near Syracuse, New York is used for storage of equipment and parts. The majority of equipment is built on a custom basis with the product designed to meet the exact needs specified by the customer. Our engineering services in the installation of this equipment including advice on facility layout, piping, wiring and miscellaneous problems are always available. We also offer field service and training. Training can take place at either our facility or the customer’s.
