Douglas DC-10 Accessory Repair Services
Introduced in 1971, the Douglas DC-10 provided airlines with wide-body capacity and intercontinental range using three engines, competing with the Lockheed L-1011 TriStar in serving high-capacity long-haul routes. While most passenger DC-10s retired in favor of more efficient twin-engine aircraft, the type continues valuable service as freighters and military tankers (KC-10 Extender) where its capacity, reliability, and cargo door configurations remain advantageous.
Four Star Accessory Overhaul provides comprehensive DC-10 accessory repair services for operators maintaining these wide-body aircraft in continued cargo and military service. Our capabilities span hydraulic systems with the extensive capacity three-engine wide-bodies require, pneumatic components, power generation units, electromechanical accessories, and fuel system components supporting both cargo and tanker operations.
Our FAA and EASA certifications enable seamless service for DC-10 aircraft regardless of registration, supporting commercial aviation cargo operators and military tanker fleets with the obsolescence management and technical expertise that out-of-production wide-body aircraft require. Our experience with legacy systems ensures continued DC-10 operations as OEM support becomes limited.
At Four Star, we hold FAA repair station certificate number EP3R483L. The certificate is rated for Accessory Classes I, II, and III (Unlimited), and non-destructive inspections. The certificate was originally issued in April 1988, and we are proud to have held it since that date.
