Hawker Pacific establishes aircraft management services

Hawker Pacific is launching new aircraft management services to be based in Singapore and led by Patrick Enz as senior vice president.

Enz joined Hawker Pacific in 2012 after previously serving as vice president of business development for Jet Aviation in Switzerland and chief executive of Rizon Group Holdings in Qatar.

The new aircraft mangement services will be 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.

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 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.
