Hawker Pacific, a leading aircraft sales and product support company in Asia, Pacific and the Middle East, is celebrating the fourth anniversary of its new Seletar facility in Singapore and announced some record results at the ongoing Singapore Airshow 2016.

The Singapore Airshow is Asia's largest and one of the most important aerospace and defence exhibitions globally.

The event which kicked off on February 16 will run until February 21, at the Changi Exhibition Centre.

Hawker Pacific's state-of-the-art facility at Seletar Aerospace Park in Singapore has exceeded expectations since its launch in 2012 with an average yearly increase in revenue of 33 per cent, said a statement from the company.

This year the facility has already reached a 30 per cent increase in revenue and is forecasting record results for the full financial year, two months out, it said.

The Seletar facility has completed a number of milestone projects in the past 12 months including upgrades to the Embraer Legacy and Dassault Falcon ranges of aircraft, it added.

The state-of-the-art paint shop at Seletar, also in high demand, has completed a number of high quality refinishing projects this year including Gulfstream, Global Express, Falcon and Beechcraft King Air aircraft. The paint shop facility, dedicated to business aircraft, is the first of its type in the region and provides a valuable service that enhances preventative maintenance for aircraft operators around the region.

The Singapore Airshow is an opportunity for the company to demonstrate its commitment to meeting growing demand in the region and to showcase its full range of capabilities from aircraft sales, support, avionics, fixed-base operator (FBO), maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO), charter and management, to government business.

Alan Smith, chief executive officer, Hawker Pacific, said: “We have seen unprecedented growth in our Singapore facility since its launch in 2012. As the hub for South East Asia we have seen increasing customer demand from China and Indonesia and even increasing customers from Europe and the US.”

“We look forward to continuing to lead the growth in business aviation in the region through exceptional service and integrated aviation solutions ensuring we remain aviation’s trusted choice,” he added. – TradeArabia News Service
