Pipistrel appoints first distributor in Mexico

Pipistrel, a Textron company, is extending its global presence with the appointment of its first Mexico-based distributor, Wulf Aviation.

Committed to positioning itself as the top choice for aircraft sales and acquisitions in the region, Wulf Aviation will be responsible for managing sales of Pipistrel’s range of ultralight, light sport and type-certified aircraft across Mexico.

Wulf Aviation has placed an initial order for a Pipistrel Explorer, a 2-seat EASA type-certified plane, intended to serve as a demonstration aircraft.

Franco Curiel, managing partner at Wulf Aviation, adds: “We are excited to collaborate with Pipistrel to shape the future of the aviation industry in Mexico, particularly in the training and leisure markets, with its modern and sustainable solutions. For several years, our team has owned a Pipistrel aircraft, so we are incredibly proud to embrace the lifestyle and represent the brand, while also introducing others to the possibilities the aircraft can provide."

The appointment of Wulf Aviation follows Pipistrel’s expansion of its distribution network in key regions across the globe, including the appointment of four distributors in North America.
