In a competitive #MRO marketplace, true #independence is a valuable asset. That’s why we’re proud to have Fokker Services Group as a #Tier1 member at Independent Aircraft Modifier Alliance (IAMA) . Fokker Services Group distinguishes itself by offering a comprehensive range of solutions to help its customers stay ahead in the industry. As Roland van Dijk from Fokker Services puts it: "We are no longer an OEM, but we come from that heritage and culture. We have those engineering skills. And because we are not tied to a specific airline, we’re not driven by the type an airline flies. This independence, combined with our broad expertise, sets us apart as one of the largest #independent #MRO providers."✈️ Their commitment to offering tailored, agile solutions—regardless of aircraft type—demonstrates why Fokker Services Group remains a trusted partner for so many in the #aviation sector. #Aviation #MRO #FokkerServices #Innovation #IAMA

Ending the year at high note. 13 flights on hydrogen in a year is itself remarkable by any measure. We are getting closer to our mission of zero carbon aviation. #greenaviation #hydrogeneconomy #sustainability #aviation

Where was the compensation or action against Greenpeace for disturbing last years EBACE event? A massive security Failure. EBACE has become very expensive and low ROI event. Frankly there is a higher density of Jet owners at the Monaco 🇲🇨 Yacht Show and better fun and networking. Events like WAS are more intimate and the Manufacturers are moving forward closer to their clients by holding customer days and opening show rooms like the Bombardier one in Monaco.🇲🇨 London CJI provides intense informative panels in a good value capital of London at the beginning of the year. I back Bombardier opening in Monaco and Gulfstream aligning with a Monaco Yacht Broker. And if you want an event in Switzerland the WAS is way more fun and productive use of time. Our industry 8/10 manufacturers are listed Public companies, we make a product that’s 90% recyclable and lasts for +30 years. 209 jobs are linked to each Jet. We are an onshore skilled jobs creator with excellent safety record and governance. Our industry is the glue that holds together EU business and US business. Business leaders can run multiple factories and business across national boundaries. Today Greenpeace has no jobs available, no economic contribution to make, yet they call for a ban of our industry? Dassault et al have thousands of vacancies onshore today with massive social taxes, corporate taxes paid across Europe, Covid showed us just how deep our supply chains are reaching across continents and national boundaries. Jets transfer wealth from the highest level of the economy back into the economy at purchase and then throughout their life and at the end of their life are parted out and recycled. It’s time to stop giving a platform to those that add no value, time for us all to lead the narrative and time to get back to basics of providing the most time efficient way of getting business leaders, innovators across the planet. Time too to if you want productive business to book up for the Monaco Grand Prix and Monaco Yacht Show 🇲🇨 if you want to meet Jet ✈️ owners. And maybe too considering a move to Monaco for your Business Aviation Business. #business of #businessjets #businessaviation #publicaviation #Monaco

Can't wait to see the demo in STL!

90 years ago today, on 20 April 1914, Howard Pixton flew a Sopwith Tabloid floatplane to victory in the Schneider Trophy. Pixton completed the 28 laps of a 10km triangular course at Monaco in 2 hours, 13 minutes and 5 seconds, averaging 85.4mph. It was the first British win in the contest, which Great Britain would ultimately win outright in 1931 at an average speed of 340.08mph. Competition has long spawned improvement and innovation in aviation, do we need more prizes in 2024 to encourage further aerospace development? #avgeek #sustainableaviation #airracing #schneidertrophy

Finally, the video capturing our memories from the ICE London conference is here!

What a great week down at Farnborough International Airshow #FIA24 Whilst overall, aircraft orders and attendance are down, diversity (of product, and indeed people) is significantly higher. The show, and indeed wider industry are still recovering from the pandamic, but along with this comes a lot of positive change. Over the decade+ that we have been attending, the change is significant, and whilst the flying displays are certainly not what they were (and the lack of cold war jets upsets Apera-bot) the focus on the future more than makes up for this. Alongside this, ‘24s show was the first ever to allow public access to exhibition halls, helping inspire the next generation of engineers, pilots and innovators. There was a greater sense of ‘connection’ to the wider world, and we only see this as a good thing. There is a brave new world slowly commercialising, we can’t wait to see what the next decade will hold. #UnlockingHumanPotential
