Through its TIMCO Aerosystems division, the company provided fully integrated aircraft interiors design and certification services and manufactures a variety of interior fittings including seats, galleys and lavatories.[3] Timco Aerosystems was the result of the acquisition of Brice Manufacturing by Timco Aviation Services in 2002[2]

Prior to its acquisition by HAECO in 2014, TIMCO was one of the largest independent commercial jet MRO service providers in the world.[4] The company supports airlines, leasing companies, and government with individually tailored aircraft care services. TIMCO ran structures and composites repair operations at its locations, capable of handling advanced composite and bonded aluminum honeycomb assemblies.[5]

TIMCO's maintenance operations are also supported by an advanced engine center in Oscoda, Michigan, and the company provides line maintenance operations at many airports through its TIMCO LineCare network.[6]
