Scheduled from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., the event will be open to the local community and highlight career opportunities at the company, along with providing facility tours and aircraft displays.
Duncan Aviation is encouraging interested visitors from the Provo and Salt Lake City area to learn about open positions and submit job applications onsite.

Company leaders emphasized Duncan Aviation’s long-standing culture of employee development. “If you’re looking for a career where your efforts will make a difference and opportunity abounds, come and see us on August 16,” said Phil Suglia, Duncan’s v-p of modifications and completions.
Tours of the 280,000-sq-ft facility will include hands-on demonstrations such as riveting and wiring. Specialists will also be available to discuss aircraft cabin work. Additional activities include an inflatable bounce house, photo opportunities with custom-painted aircraft, and door prizes. Additionally, the Utah-based Gail S.
