AOG Courier Service in California

AOG stands for aircraft on ground. It means an aircraft cannot fly until a part, tool or document arrives. An AOG courier service picks up that item right away and drives it straight to the aircraft, with no other stops on the way. Redline Courier Service runs AOG deliveries across California 24 hours a day.

Call dispatch and a live person answers, day or night. Most rush pickups happen within 30 minutes of the call. The exact time depends on where the part is and where the nearest driver is, so dispatch gives you a real pickup time before the run starts.

All of them. We deliver to the major airports, including LAX, SFO, San Diego, Oakland, San Jose, Sacramento, John Wayne, Ontario, Burbank and Long Beach. We also deliver to business and general aviation airports such as Van Nuys, Camarillo, Carlsbad, Chino and Hayward, and to maintenance bases at Mojave, Victorville and San Bernardino.

Yes. Our drivers deliver to FBOs, MRO hangars, repair stations, airline maintenance bases and air cargo buildings. Give dispatch the building, the gate or door, and the name of the person receiving the part. If the delivery point is inside a secured area, your team meets the driver at the access point or arranges the escort.

Yes. Dispatch is staffed 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, every day of the year. Aircraft do not break down on a schedule, so the phone is always answered by a person.

Yes. With our Next Flight Out service, a driver picks up the part, tenders it to the airline for the next available flight, and a driver at the other end collects it and takes it to the aircraft. Dispatch will tell you which is faster for your route, the drive or the flight.

Small parts ride in a car. Larger items, such as wheels, brakes, crated components and ground support equipment, go in a cargo van, a pickup or a larger truck. Tell dispatch the size and weight of the shipment so the right vehicle is sent the first time.

Yes. Release certificates such as the FAA Form 8130-3, packing slips, work orders and any other documents you hand our driver stay with the part from pickup to handoff. The driver does not open sealed packaging.

Yes. You can follow the run live from pickup to drop-off. When the part is handed over, you get proof of delivery with the time, the receiver's name and a signature.

Some aircraft parts are regulated as dangerous goods. Tell dispatch exactly what the item is before pickup. Dispatch will confirm whether and how we can move it before a driver is sent.

Standard liability is $150 per package unless you declare a higher value and pay for it when you hand over the shipment. Additional cargo insurance is available. Tell dispatch the value of the part when you call so the right coverage is in place before pickup.

No. Call dispatch or send a request online and we will quote the run before anything moves. Operators, MROs and parts suppliers that ship often can open an account for one invoice and faster booking.
