From Flight Controls to Fatherhood

There’s something poetic about sliding back into a Black Hawk with my daughter on my lap. Years ago flying missions, to today, flying higher in a different way: building businesses, mentoring teams, and guiding this little one through life, one-of-four to be exact.

At Retir3d we still operate like a flight crew: precision, preparation, and purpose in everything we do. Whether it’s aerospace MRO, vendor solutions, or manufacturing partnerships.

Life has a way of bringing things full circle. From soldier to Founder, from mission briefings to bedtime stories. Still flying, just at a different kind of altitude. Ian Ehrhardt

Retir3d x Integrity Machining Inc.

I'm honored to support Integrity Machining Inc. as a trusted partner on their journey of growth and operational excellence.

Together, we’re not only expanding their aerospace and CNC machining capabilities, but also actively guiding them through the AS9100 certification process to ensure long-term quality compliance and readiness for high-level contracts.

This partnership reflects what Retir3d stands for: equipping small businesses with the structure, strategy, and support needed to thrive in competitive industries, without compromising their values, beliefs, or God-Given skills.

Proud to work with teams who value integrity in both name and action, while prioritizing their quality and commitment to their business, as stewards of the Gospel and what the Lord has trusted them with.

Let’s keep building.
