Top Flight Aerostructures, Inc.

Top Flight Aerostructures, Inc., doing business as Top Flight Aerostructures Inc., manufactures aerospace composite and adhesively bonded structural components for military aircraft as a prime contractor on small-business-set-aside and full-and-open federal contracts. The company is a small disadvantaged business, Subchapter S Corporation, headquartered in Dallas, Georgia, competing predominantly under small business set-aside vehicles (Total Small Business and non-set-aside competitions) across defense aviation platforms.

Top Flight Aerostructures' customer footprint is highly concentrated in the defense aviation supply chain. The Defense Logistics Agency Aviation accounts for 1,466 awards (96% of recent volume) with $88.7 million in combined potential value, while the Department of the Air Force Materiel Command Air Force Sustainment Center holds 36 awards valued at $85.5 million. Together these two customers represent 99% of award count and account for the vast majority of the company's federal revenue. Notably, the two rankings diverge in dollar magnitude—DLA Aviation dominates by volume but the Air Force Sustainment Center's fewer awards carry significantly higher unit values, driven by substantial indefinite delivery contracts for C-5 Galaxy sustainment.

The company's core capability is manufacturing aircraft structural panels, fairings, wing ribs, bulkhead assemblies, floor components, and related aircraft spares under firm fixed-price delivery orders and purchase orders. Representative work includes a $1,992,816 definitive contract from the Department of the Air Force for wing rib manufacture (March 2026, Total Small Business set-aside), a $606,096 purchase order from DLA Aviation for 18 units of wing ribs (July 2025, no set-aside), a $415,605 purchase order from DLA Aviation for aircraft fairings (May 2025), a $325,975.08 delivery order from the Air Force Sustainment Center for C-5 honeycomb panels (September 2025), and a $2,302,438 single-award indefinite delivery contract from the Air Force Sustainment Center for C-5 wing tip panel production (September 2023, running through August 2028). Recent awards span structural panels, aircraft flooring, access covers, ducts, spars, and government first article test services, indicating a diversified component portfolio within aerospace structures.

Top Flight Aerostructures holds multiple parent indefinite delivery vehicles anchoring its task order and purchase order flow. The largest volume vehicle is an Indefinite Delivery Contract (SPE4A221D0006) with 321 task orders worth $5.4 million in combined potential value, followed by SPE4A219D0030 with 164 task orders ($2.4 million), and SPE4AX16D9004 with 91 task orders ($1.4 million). The company also holds the $2.3 million Air Force Sustainment Center C-5 wing tip panel contract (single award, set-aside for small business) and a $249,999.99 DLA Aviation structural panel IDV awarded November 2024 (single award, small business set-aside), plus a newly established $2 million aircraft fairing IDV with DLA Aviation (August 2025, single award, no set-aside). These vehicles provide recurring task order mechanisms for component procurement across military transport and fighter platforms.

Activity has remained steady, averaging around 150 prime awards per year in recent years (154 in 2024, 155 in 2025). Within the next twenty-four months, 171 awards with a combined potential value of $14.7 million face ultimate completion and recompete exposure, representing material contract at-risk volume across the portfolio. The company's award base is extremely narrow in customer concentration and mission scope—nearly all awards are for airframe structural components (NAICS 336413, PSC code airframe structural components) procured by DLA Aviation and the Air Force Sustainment Center, with minimal diversification beyond military aircraft sustainment.

Top Flight Aerostructures carries minimal visible subcontract footprint in the source data. Three sub-awards appear: a March 2026 structural panel manufacturing sub to Derco Aerospace, Inc., and two 2025–2026 MV-22 inventory management support subs to Defense Systems and Solutions under a Redstone Arsenal prototype facility contract. The company operates primarily as a prime contractor and does not show material presence as a subcontractor on larger defense primes.

The company registered as a federal contractor in 2005 and has maintained continuous activity in DLA Aviation and Air Force supply chains for over twenty years, specializing in bonded composite and structural components for legacy platforms such as the C-5 Galaxy and current fighter trainer platforms. Its strategy centers on recurring small-business-set-aside task orders from established IDV vehicles, with periodic larger single-award and multiple-award contract renewals. The Dallas, Georgia facility serves as the place of performance for all visible work.
