Duran Aviation Services Hi, I'm Bryan Duran, owner of Duran Aviation Services. I provide consulting and aircraft certification for manufacturers and modification companies.

Yesterday, I traveled to the beautiful state of Utah to support another customer in securing an Experimental Airworthiness Certificate for their UH-60 Blackhawk. The certificate was issued for the purposes of exhibition and crew training.

If you need support with aircraft certification, conformity inspections, or airworthiness approvals, feel free to reach out, I’d be glad to help.

With AirVenture in full swing, I figured it was a good time to highlight some of the aircraft I’ve had the chance to help certify.

Each project is a reminder of how lucky I am to be part of this industry.

If you or someone you know needs support from an experienced DAR-F. Whether it’s a certification, conformity, or special project, feel free to reach out.

(It's hard to pick one over the other, so there is a lot! I am seriously living a dream!)

Excited to support another customer on a Starlink STC project! I was able to perform part conformity, installation conformity, and TIA conformity, along with issuing their shirt pocket certificate to help move them into Show Compliance without surrenderintheir Standard Certificate permanently. The project wrapped up successfully.

Funny enough, I left California only to end up in California… Maryland. There’s probably a joke in there somewhere. Walking around D.C. afterward never gets old—there’s so much history packed into every block.

If you need a DAR-F to support your certification project or issue an airworthiness certificate, feel free to reach out. I’d be glad to help.

Just wrapped up a successful trip to Australia. I am grateful for the opportunity to support two operators with their Restricted Category certifications for fire bombing and external load operations.

Over the past week, I made my way from Sacramento to Rockhampton, QLD and Scone, NSW by plane, train, and the occasional car. Along the way, I managed to snap a few photos of the journey.

If you need help with airworthiness certifications, conformity inspections, or just have questions about the process, feel free to reach out.

Just returned from Minneapolis, and I'm pretty sure I've never been colder in my life! The city and people are lovely, but you've got to be a special breed to brave those temperatures.

Please reach out if you have any DAR-F needs!

It has been several months since I obtained my DAR-F designation and established Duran Aviation Services, and I am pleased to report that it has surpassed my expectations in every aspect. I have had the opportunity to participate in several exceptional projects to date, and I would like to share some of the adventure with you.

If you or someone you know needs an Airworthiness or needs a DAR for an STC please contact me at Duran Aviation Services in partnership with Airfilm Aviation.

I created this page years ago with the hope that it would spark a new adventure in my life. At the time, I knew I wanted to start my own business, but the journey didn’t unfold as quickly as I expected. Working hard to achieve someone else’s dreams never sat well with me—it always felt like I was sacrificing my own goals. Deep down, I knew business ownership was the path I wanted, but I also feared that pursuing it might mean stepping away from the world of aviation.

In the early stages of my career, whenever I met someone with a more exciting or advanced job, I would always ask them how they got there. I made it a point to learn from them, train myself, and position myself for that next opportunity. Settling was never an option. I kept moving forward, and I believe that drive has been key to my success.

The road hasn’t been easy. I’ve had to leave my comfort zone many times, and when it meant leaving a company to grow, I didn’t hesitate. Pursuing my ultimate goal took countless hours of personal time and required the support of some incredible people in my life. Without their encouragement, I might not be where I am today.

Now, I’m proud to use this page as a platform to promote my business, Duran Aviation Services, and share some of the exciting projects I’ve been fortunate to be part of. The adventure is far from over—and I’m excited to bring you along on the journey.
