As a group, we have a hand in every stage of an aircrafts development. This starts with an initial brief and carries on through a variety of design, build and test stages, before we deliver the final product.

Weve even produced a number of military training programmes. Our customer base spans more than 30 countries worldwide. And we currently employ around 10,000 people.
