OUR HISTORY
OUR HISTORY
WHERE WE STARTED & WHERE WE ARE NOW
We have been providing people with affordable, trustworthy financial services for over sixty years. AERO was chartered in 1957 when a small group of workers in the aerospace industry banded together to form Sperry Phoenix Employees Federal Credit Union. Through a series of mergers and acquisitions of our core sponsor, and in keeping with our dedication to the employees of the flight and aerospace industry, our membership base continues to expand. In November 1999, we changed our name to Honeywell Aerospace Federal Credit Union. In 2009, we became AERO Federal Credit Union and in 2024 we are now recognized as AERO Financial.
We currently hold over $300 million in assets, with 7 branches in the Phoenix metro area. We serve roughly 22,000 members who are located worldwide.
