A 15-strong line-up of business aircraft will showcase at Reed Exhibitions’ Asian Aerospace 09 show in Hong Kong next month – more than double the number on show in 2007. The industry’s key eight manufacturers – Airbus, Bombardier, Cessna, Dassault, Embraer, Gulfstream, Hawker and Piaggio – have all committed to display aircraft in the static park display area. The full line up is as follows: Bombardier Global Express XRS, Challenger 605 and 850; Embraer Legacy 600; Gulfstream 150, 200, 450 and 500 (plus Jet Aviation with a newly outfitted G550); Dassault Falcon 7X, Falcon 2000; Airbus ACJ; Hawker Beechcraft 900XP; Cessna Citation X and the Piaggio Avanti II business turboprop.
“We are delighted to have such strong support from the business aircraft fraternity,” said Richard Thiele, Head of Global Sales for Aerospace & Aviation at Reed Exhibitions. “Although a relatively new sector in Asia, and in spite of the world economic turndown, 2008 was a record year for the business aviation market, particularly in mainland China.”
The static aircraft display will form part of the conference, to be staged at the all new Asia World Expo from 8-9 September.
