Turbines History

Turbines Inc was started in 1981 by Jim Mills in Terre Haute, IN. He saw a need in the turbine ag world for a good Turbine shop. The business was based on knowledgeable people, fast turn times, and fair prices.

Turbines Inc has grown over the years, but its values remain the same. Many of the employees have been here 25+ years. The depth of our experience and knowledge is unequalled in any Turbine shop. We believe in employing our veterans . 80% of our shop employees were in the military.

Our business now includes not only agricultural but also corporate and charter aircraft. We have developed many STC’s including Turbine conversions for the Ag-Cat, Brave and Dromader. And the list keeps growing.

We do PT6a engine repair and overhaul, hot section inspections, prop strikes, power section repair, unscheduled inspections, agricultural plane repair, PT6a-28 to PT6a-34 conversion and other conversions.

Turbines Inc is one of the few shops that has expertise with the PT6A-20 engine!

Turbines Inc is privately owned, so there are no committees or red tape to go through.
