INDIAN FIRST
Embraer has appointed maintenance, repair and overhaul company Indamer as its first authorised executive jet service centre in India as it seeks to expand its foothold within the subcontinent. Operations are scheduled to begin in the first half of 2009.
AOPA PRESIDENT
Craig Fuller has taken the controls as president of the Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association - only the fourth president in the association's nearly 70-year history. Fuller became president on 1 January following a three-month transition leading up to outgoing president Phil Boyer's retirement on 31 December 2008.
PILOT GROUP
A new association has been formed by Cessna Citation owner pilots and the first gathering is planned in March at the Light Business Airplane conference in San Diego. "Citation Jet Pilots is run by Citation owner pilots for the benefit of owner pilots," says the organisation. "Its mission is to provide information, communication and support allowing owner pilots to share information and improve the safety and utility of our aircraft."
