About
General Aviation Maintenance (GAM) was founded by aircraft maintenance engineer Steve Nott in 1986. GAM began as a small team providing maintenance out of the now heritage listed Hangar 1 at Essendon Airport Victoria. Purchasing its first aircraft in 1987 the company expanded its operations into air charter services and soon after, won its first contract for the provision of priority freight services across the south and east coast of Australia. Colloquially known in the industry and by enthusiasts as the “bank run” planes, these services have operated five days per week out of Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane and Adelaide for over 20 years.
