Pula Aviation Services Limited (PASL) has acquired UK-based aircraft spare parts distributor Airpart Supply in a deal that will expand the services the Guernsey-based company provides. Those services include aircraft charter and management, handling, maintenance, and parts sales within the business, commercial, and general aviation markets.

Nearly 40-year-old Airpart is a distributor of airframe and engine parts and accessories for civil, commercial, and military aircraft. “At PASL, we are focused on growing our position in business aviation and we are delighted to be broadening our capabilities with the acquisition of Airpart, which has valuable synergies with the rest of the group,” said PASL CEO Steve Page. “This deal presents us with exciting new opportunities for growth.”

Under the acquisition, Airpart founders David McHugh and Rob Allen will remain with the company in leadership positions. “It is clear both companies share the same culture, ethos, and approach to business,” McHugh said. “This new structure will allow Airpart to take full advantage of the opportunities ahead. We are excited to be able to accelerate several current projects, including an increased presence in the European mainland.”
