$4.5 Million In Inventory To Be Added To British Facility
Gulfstream Aerospace
announced earlier this week the company will be adding spare-parts
inventory valued at $4.5 million to its Luton, England Service
Center to support the growing fleet of Gulfstream business jets
operating in Europe and the Middle East. The additional spares
inventory will include spare parts for Gulfstream G200, GIV, GV,
G350, G450, G500 and G550 business-jet models.
"Just in the past year, we have seen a significant increase in
our sales activity in Europe and the Middle East," said Gulfstream
Product Support President Larry Flynn. "By increasing the number of
spare parts in Luton , we are ensuring that both existing and
future Gulfstream aircraft operators in this region receive the
parts they need as fast as possible. From Luton, we’ll be
able to ship parts overnight to locations throughout Europe and the
Middle East."
Gulfstream will be overseeing the spare-parts distribution
process, which is scheduled to begin June 1. Gulfstream's Luton
Service Center currently manages a limited onsite spare parts
inventory, used by service technicians performing maintenance at
the facility.
"This recent agreement is part of Gulfstream’s ongoing
commitment of moving spare parts faster and more efficiently to our
customers, regardless of where an aircraft is operated," Flynn
added.
Gulfstream Aerospace Corporation -- a subsidiary of General
Dynamics -- designs, develops, manufactures, markets, services and
supports the company's line of business-jet aircraft. Gulfstream
has produced more than 1,500 aircraft for customers around the
world since 1958.
