Hawker Beechcraft
Services tells ANN that its network of factory-owned service
centers has begun the awaited installation of the Garmin G1000
fully integrated glass cockpit avionics suite in the Beechcraft
King Air 200 and B200. The installation began upon receiving the
FAA/STC approval from Garmin International.
"As one of the industry's largest authorized dealers for the
most coveted aircraft upgrades, we welcome the Garmin G1000 to our
family of product offerings," said Bill Brown, president, Hawker
Beechcraft Global Customer Service and Support. "With our wide
range of capabilities, we can install virtually any approved
upgrade at our factory-owned service centers where we utilize
genuine factory parts, provide factory engineering and deliver the
factory seal-of-approval on everything we do."
While waiting for Garmin's STC to be approved for installation, the
HBS San Antonio service center demonstrated its extensive range of
capabilities with additional upgrades to a King Air B200 with
Blackhawk Super XP-52 engines, BLR Winglets, Frakes Exhaust Stacks,
Raisbeck Crown Wing Lockers, new paint and a custom interior
complete with cabin entertainment.
Headquartered in Wichita, the HBS
network of factory-owned service centers provide professional
aircraft maintenance, modification and repair at 10 service centers
located in Little Rock, Ark.; Mesa, Ariz.; Tampa, Fla.; Atlanta,
Ga.; Indianapolis, Ind.; Wichita, Kan.; Houston, Texas; San
Antonio, Texas; Toluca, Mexico; and Chester in the United Kingdom.
Several HBS facilities also offer paint and interior refurbishment.
The HBS network offers convenient access to service and support for
the life of the products and upgrades provided.
