Price Induction to use Abu Dhabi Air Expo as stepping stone into Middle East.

Thursday 7th February 2013

Confirming its commitment to the Middle Eastern region where it plans to create a commercial subsidiary French specialist turbofan manufacturer Price Induction has announced its participation at the Abu Dhabi Air Expo to be held from 5th to 7th March 2013 at Al Bateen Executive Airport.

The decision to exhibit is part of the company's overall strategy to develop the Middle Eastern market and forms an essential part of a plan to open a subsidiary that will join the company's existing network which already includes bases in the USA, Brazil and Germany.

Launched fifteen years ago with the support of leading French aerospace companies and the French Government, Price Induction's DGEN program represents a unique effort to develop a new family of compact turbine engines enabling affordable and fuel efficient twin-fan "Personal Light Jets" (PLJs) for general aviation pilots.

Price Induction will be showcasing the DGEN 380, the first turbofan concept optimised for PLJs at the Abu Dhabi event. Following successful outings at leading general aviation shows including America's Oshkosh and Germany's Friedrichshafen, Price Induction has selected the Middle East's only dedicated general aviation exhibition to present the DGEN 380 to Middle Eastern pilots and industry players.

Price Induction will also take the opportunity to arrange demonstrations of the WESTT turbofan test benches so supporting Abu Dhabi Air Expo's commitment to training and improving general aviation knowledge in the region. The family of real and virtual turbofan test benches have been specifically designed for instructors and researchers who need access to a wide range of state-of-the-art training tools.

The industry-based equipment is already used by international aerospace universities, research laboratories and maintenance schools for research and education programmes.

Price Induction will be exhibiting on Booth A74-A76 at Abu Dhabi Air Expo.
