Columbia Aircraft Sales Gets The Nod
On Tuesday, Adam
Aircraft announced Columbia Aircraft Sales, Inc. of Groton (CT) as
the factory authorized dealer for Adam Aircraft products in the
northeastern United States. This territory includes Maine, New
Hampshire, Vermont, Massachusetts, Connecticut, Rhode Island, New
York, Pennsylvania, and New Jersey. As part of this relationship,
Columbia Air Services, Inc. will be a factory authorized service
center for the corresponding territory.
"Our objective at Adam Aircraft is to manufacture advanced
aircraft and deliver them into the finest support structure
possible for our customers," said Rick Adam, CEO of Adam Aircraft.
"To that end, we are very pleased to have Columbia representing
Adam Aircraft in the Northeastern United States. They have a long
history of successful operation and are very well respected by
their customers."
Art Maurice and Harry Holt, co-owners of Columbia Aircraft Sales
and Columbia Air Services were eager to comment. "This is a very
exciting relationship for the Columbia group of companies. The
philosophies and values of the two organizations are an
exceptionally good fit," said Mr. Maurice. "Rick Adam has created a
well oiled and focused organization. His enthusiasm and commitment
to excellence are contagious," added Mr. Holt.
Adam claims Columbia Air Services' experience in maintaining
general aviation aircraft is a key component to the dealer
relationship. "Columbia Air Services, Inc. has been maintaining
complex turbine and piston powered aircraft for more than 25 years.
We have an impeccable safety record, and offer the highest quality
service available anywhere. Years of technical mastery afford us
the luxury of making customer support our number one priority.
Knowing how Adam shares these values, we are extremely pleased to
be representing their products," said Jim Celentano, Director of
Maintenance for Columbia Air Service.
Adam Aircraft's A500 twin-piston aircraft is reportedly
approaching a long-promised and much-delayed FAA certification and
the new A700 AdamJet is currently undergoing initial flight
test.
