Hawker Pacific expands aircraft management services

Hawker Pacific has established a dedicated aircraft management service based in Singapore - Hawker Pacific Aircraft Management Pte Ltd - to be led by Patrick Enz who joined Hawker Pacific in 2012 as Senior Vice President Aircraft Management.

The new business offers a ’modular’ management solution, essentially tailoring aircraft management services to provide individualised services - from 24/7 operations control centre, crewing, trip services such as ground handling and permit arrangements, fuelling services, administration and maintenance management.

Owner’s cost of aircraft operation is significantly reduced through Hawker Pacific’s volume programs, which guarantee pass-through costs without mark-ups to clients with a sophisticated reporting suite. The Aircraft Management services are available worldwide drawing from Hawker Pacific’s resources at all fifteen locations and service points throughout the Asia Pacific, stretching from Beijing to Dubai, Jakarta, Perth and Auckland.

Patrick Enz, Senior Vice President Aircraft Management

Alan Smith, Chief Executive Officer of the Hawker Pacific Group, said: ”The establishment of the Aircraft Management Group is an important and vital step in our desire to grow closer to our customers and to provide comprehensive support for their aviation assets. The aircraft management activity enables greater synergy with our aircraft sales, product support and FBO activities. Patrick Enz brings considerable added experience in business and commercial aviation to the Hawker Pacific team. His previous roles as Vice President Business Development for Jet Aviation in Switzerland and as Chief Executive of Rizon Group Holdings, Qatar provide a unique understanding of the needs of business aviation owners and operators."

Patrick Enz said: ”Adding aircraft management to the already comprehensive Hawker Pacific Group product portfolio gives the customer the unique benefit of being able to take virtually all aircraft services out of one hand. Moreover, Hawker Pacific is the only organisation in Asia and Pacific that disposes of a network with a geographical reach of presences that spread from Beijing to Perth and from Dubai to Sydney. The fact that we can offer aircraft charter services under our AOC represents a further advantage to clients wanting to reduce their cost of aircraft operations and optimise their return on investment.

The Aircraft Management services business is located at Hawker Pacific’s recently inaugurated facility at Seletar Aerospace Park in Singapore.
