General Aviation Textron Aviation expands customer solutions in Australia

Textron Aviation will expand the appointment for Authorized Service Facility (ASF) company Premiair Aviation Maintenance Pty Ltd. The company is allowed to perform MRO services on Cessna Citation, Cessna Caravan, Beechcraft King Air, Cessna and Beechcraft piston and Hawker aircraft.

Premiair has multiple locations throughout Australia and now has additional presences in Melbourne and Gold Coast. The company´s footprint allows Textron Aviation customers to have close access to aircraft maintenance and support.

Premiair also offers avionics services and upgrades, scheduled and unscheduled maintenance, structural and component repair, as well as overhaul and refurbishment services. Over the past 17 years, Premiair has established itself in the country and has a strong national presence.

Kriya Shortt, Textron Aviation senior vice president, Customer Service said: “Textron Aviation has long been a part of the vibrant Australian aviation community and this appointment helps ensure our customers have easy access to expert, factory authorised service for any requirement.”

“In addition to its stellar reputation for superb maintenance repair and overhaul skills, Premiair Aviation’s foundation of excellent customer care and service fits well with the culture and values espoused by Textron Aviation,” Shortt added.

Paul Montauban, Premiair Aviation managing director stated: “Relationships, customer care and satisfaction come first at Premiair Aviation [...] The entire Premiair team is excited to welcome the full family of Cessna and Beechcraft products, and their passionate owners, into our facilities to show them our commitment to quality and excellence in aircraft support.”

Currently, Textron Aviation is experiencing a steady pace of investment across the Asia-Pacific region. More than 1,000 aircraft are being operated in the area, and the cooperation with Premiair is therefore essential for the U.S.-American manufacturer.
