in their customers' own language and region.
Payne Hughes, president of Thrush Aircraft, stated:

African market for Thrush Aircraft since becoming our distributor
there. I’m very pleased to expand their territory at this
time, and all of us here in Albany look forward to working
with them in this vibrant region. Our expanding distributor network
is a direct reflection of our growing market share around the
world, and our dedication to supporting our customers, and their
aircraft, wherever they fly.”
