/Banyan Air Service, Inc., based at Fort Lauderdale Executive Airport in Florida, will be exhibiting for the first time at EBACE (Booth 2147) from May 20 – 22, 2008, at Geneva Palexpo.
Banyan will be promoting its new FBO terminal building, aircraft sales and management, maintenance and avionics services. The Banyan EBACE team will be Sueanne Campion and Don Campion, president; Michael O’Keeffe, senior vice president aircraft sales; Paul Rose, vice president technical sales; and Brian Wilson, director of avionics.
“EBACE is an opportunity for Banyan to expand our geographical reach,” Campion said.
He said Banyan was an EASA approved repair facility and could offer a more economical and comprehensive solution for aviation services to the European market. For an aircraft buyer, Banyan can help locate, evaluate, perform maintenance and required inspections and facilitate export certificates. In addition, the south Florida location is a prime business and tourist destination.
“Our European customers can schedule their aircraft maintenance to correspond with business and leisure travel.” Campion said.
