Superior Air Parts
announced earlier this week that it has appointed Aero Engine and
Aircraft Services of Sint-Martens-Latem, Belgium as the
company’s new distributor for North and Central Africa.
"I am very pleased to make this announcement," explained Timothy
T. Archer, President and CEO of Superior Air Parts, Inc. "Aero
Engine has been our distributor in Belgium and France since 2005,
now they will provide their same high level of product availability
and after-sales support to Superior’s customers in North and
Central Africa."
"The market for Superior’s line of products... is growing
rapidly in Africa," Archer added. "Aero Engine has proven that they
have the dedication and product knowledge that our customers are
looking for in these emerging regions."
Along with Superior's list of aftermarket replacement parts and
components for Lycoming and Teledyne Continental piston engines,
Aero Engine will also be the distributor for Superior’s
popular XP-Series of experimental engines.
"This is a wonderful opportunity for us," stated Jean-Marie
Brisson, Aero Engine and Aircraft Services owner and CEO. "Superior
is an industry-leader in the development and manufacturing of
new-generation parts for piston aircraft engines and we feel there
is great potential for these products in North and Central
Africa."
"Because they offer significant performance advantages over
comparable engines and the fact that they can run on auto-fuels,
the XP-Series engines are becoming extremely popular for sport
aviation aircraft in Africa," Archer added.
Based in Coppell, TX, Superior Air Parts, a division of Thielert
AG of Germany, also manufactures the new FAA certified Vantage
Engine (above).
