Meanwhile, its US subsidiary, VT Mobile Aerospace Engineering, also signed an agreement in September to establish a hangar capable of accommodating two widebody aircraft at the Pensacola International airport in 2016.
Another of its subsidiaries, Aeria Luxury Interiors, also won its first nose-to-fail cabin completion contract for a wide-body VIP aircraft. Redelivery of the aircraft is planned for the fourth quarter of 2016.
