Marshall Aviation Services bolsters Aircraft Sales team.

Monday 21st October 2013

Marshall Aviation Services, part of the Marshall Aerospace and Defence Group, has welcomed a bolstered aircraft sales team hard on the heels of its acquisition of Hawker Beechcraft's European MRO facility in Broughton, North Wales and its appointment as exclusive sales distributor for Beechcraft aircraft for UK, Ireland and Scandinavia.

Reporting to Sales Director, Howard Povey, Craig Lammiman joins as Regional Sales Director (UK, Ireland and Channel Islands) from aircraft sales and acquisitions company, Freestream Aircraft Ltd, where he held the position of Vice President Aircraft Sales. Prior to that he headed up pre-owned sales for PremiAir Global where he steered the company from a rotary only business to a successful fixed wing sales organization, overseeing the sale of several pre-owned Beechcraft aircraft.  In his new role, Craig will be responsible for new Beechcraft sales in the UK and Ireland, based in Broughton.

JETability pre owned team expands:

Also reporting to Howard Povey, a former senior Beechcraft sales executive, are two new additions to Marshall Aviation Services' JETability pre-owned aircraft team.  They include Steve Morgan, who most recently held the position of Regional Sales Director at Beechcraft Corporation and Charlotte Daniels as Sales Manager, who joins from the former Marshall Executive Aircraft, the charter arm of the Group, now succeeded by FlairJet, with bases in Cambridge and London Oxford Airports.

Steve joins JETability as Sales Director, Pre-owned Aircraft, bringing over 30 years' highly relevant business aviation sales experience to the role following a career at Beechcraft Corporation (formerly Hawker Beechcraft), Raytheon Aircraft and British Aerospace. Most recently, Steve held the position of Regional Sales Director at Beechcraft Corporation responsible for new aircraft sales for the UK and Scandinavia. In his new role, he will be responsible for managing pre-owned aircraft sales and acquisitions on behalf of JETability.

Since its launch at the end of November 2012, JETability has secured the sale of four aircraft including a Cessna Citation jet; Socata TBM-700B; Hawker 850XP and a P68 Vulcanair and is expected to close on a King Air B200 imminently.

Howard Povey comments: "I am delighted to be introducing such an experienced and dynamic sales team with a clear divide on new Beechcraft products and pre-owned aircraft of all makes and models.  JETability has had a successful first year of operation and now with a new look sales team and our appointment as exclusive sales distributor for Beechcraft aircraft, we look forward to further positive results. JETability is currently marketing seven aircraft and three helicopters."

Marshall Aviation Services will be recruiting an aircraft sales representative for Norway in the coming months to further strengthening its capabilities.
