"Young Company" Growing Rapidly
Aspen Avionics tells ANN
it recently joined the General Aviation Manufacturers Association
(GAMA), and the board of directors of GAMA has approved the
membership.
"We recognize the importance of supporting and participating in
industry trade groups," said Aspen Avionics President John Uczekaj.
"We are honored by our acceptance into an organization as
prestigious as GAMA, and feel that this is an important step in
establishing Aspen Avionics as an integral part of the general
aviation industry."
"Although we are a young company, we are staffed with people
whose industry experience and expertise will be available for GAMA
committees and projects, and we look forward to participating in
that process to do our share for the good of the entire industry,
Uczekaj continued.
The avionics manufacturer -- which, as ANN reported, launched its
Evolution Flight Display system (shown below) for certified GA
aircraft at AirVenture 2007 -- also announced Scott R. Smith
has joined the company as the Southeast Area Sales Manager.
In this position, Smith will be responsible for sales of the
Evolution system, and help to establish both a dealer network and
customer care programs for Evolution and other company products in
his region. Smith was most recently a regional sales manager for
Garmin International where he successfully managed his sales
territory, conducted more than 200 seminars for pilots and aircraft
owners as well as provided many media demonstration flights of
Garmin products.
"Scott's experience is invaluable to us. His experience working
with dealers, demonstrating products to potential customers as well
as his vast experience as a sales manager and a pilot make him
ideally suited to join Aspen Avionics," said Uczekaj. "We are
building a world-class sales team, and Scott is the newest
addition."
Smith earned a degree in business administration from the
College of the Ozarks. He is a commercial pilot and flight
instructor with approximately 3000 hours of flying time, including
more than 200 hours in tailwheel aircraft.
