Fokker Services becomes an Airbus-Approved outfitter
Stork subsidiary Fokker
Services of The Netherlands has been named an approved
outfitter for Airbus Corporate Jetliners (ACJ), giving customers more
choice in cabin completions.
The approval follows an extensive
Airbus audit and evaluation of the company, which is
an experienced cabin outfitter in the corporate jet market.
Fokker Services has already won its first Airbus ACJ
Family aircraft completion for an Airbus ACJ of the
Austria-based Stumpf Group, which is currently in Fokker Services'
Woensdrecht facility.
Hans Berends van Loenen, President of Fokker
Services says, "we feel very privileged to become an
Airbus-Approved Outfitter. Completions is one of the strategic growth
areas of our company and the approval will support
us in achieving our strategic goals."
"Strong demand for
Airbus Corporate Jetliner Family aircraft means that there is
a shortage of cabin outfitting capacity in the market,"
comments Airbus Chief Operating Officer, Customers, John Leahy. "In
approving Fokker Services, following a thorough audit of its
capabilities, we will be able to offer further choice
in this specialised field to our customers."
To ensure
the highest quality in cabin outfitting, Airbus has now
approved six worldwide completion centres for the installation of
Airbus ACJ Family interiors. A close working relationship with
Airbus ensures these completion centres work to deliver quality
cabins in the equipped aircraft.
Airbus' Corporate Jetliner Family
now has more than 80 sales to its credit,
and is established as the preferred choice at the
upper end of the top-of-the-line corporate jet market.
Fokker
Services, as the Type Certificate Holder for all Fokker
aircraft types, currently supports over 800 Fokker aircraft worldwide
with a full range of support services. It is
expanding its integrated design, support and manufacturing capabilities to
VIP aircraft completions.

components and systems for the aviation and aerospace industry,
and supplies integrated services and products to aircraft owners
and operators. The group achieved a turnover of ˆ
549 million in 2006 with 3,532 employees out of
the total Stork turnover of ˆ 2.01 billion.
