London Gatwick-based Trade-Air, an aircraft spare parts vendor that specializes in rotable components for widebody VIP aircraft, inked a total support contract here at EBACE this week for its 65th Boeing Business Jet customer. The Southeast Asian operator signed up for the company’s nose-to-tail “total support service.”

“We are delighted to have another BBJ join our highly praised program, the success of which we attribute to our exceptional levels of service,” said Trade-Air sales director Stafford Vance. “Additionally, many operators realize that our stock, which is reserved exclusively for VIP operators, has very low hours, resulting in long life on the wing.”

Trade-air also supports more than 40 Airbus ACJs in its widebody program.
