WE’RE NOT JUST HAWKER AND BEECHCRAFT PARTS
FL Technics Jets has become the first fully authorized Hawker Beechcraft (HBC) business jets service center in Eastern Europe. The company has joined an extensive network of official HBC global customer support stations and will provide line maintenance services to warranted Hawker 125 series aircraft. “We are very pleased that after an extensive audit we have finally become the accredited Hawker Beechcraft partner in Eastern Europe. Cooperation with one of the largest business class aircraft manufacturers in the world will definitely accelerate company growth on an international scale,” says Darius Saluga, CEO of FL Technics Jets.
