What is PMA Parts Distribution?

PMA (Parts Manufacturer Approval) is an FAA authorization that allows manufacturers to produce and sell aircraft replacement parts that meet strict safety and quality standards. PMA parts provide operators with a cost-effective, reliable alternative to OEM components. Distribution involves sourcing these FAA-approved parts from qualified manufacturers and ensuring they reach operators quickly and efficiently.

By working with a trusted distributor like DK Turbines, you benefit from:

  • Lower-cost alternatives to OEM parts
  • FAA-approved safety and compliance
  • Access to a wide inventory of parts for multiple engine platforms
  • Expert support from an experienced aviation partner

The Difference Between PMA and OEM

When it comes to replacement aircraft parts, operators often compare PMA (Parts Manufacturer Approval) parts with OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) parts. Both play a critical role in aviation maintenance, but there are key differences:

  • OEM Parts – Manufactured by the original producer of the aircraft or engine. These parts are built to the exact specifications of the aircraft’s original design but often come at a higher cost due to brand exclusivity and limited sourcing options.

 

  • PMA Parts – Produced by FAA-approved manufacturers who must demonstrate equal or superior performance to OEM parts. These parts undergo rigorous testing, engineering analysis, and FAA approval processes before entering the market. PMA parts are widely recognized for their reliability, availability, and cost savings—without sacrificing safety or compliance.
